Has anyone else been watching this program? It is 98.3% KAKKA. That fella Brendan Coogan, with his gurning jug-eared freak face, needs a resounding kicking. It largely makes Fifth Gear look like quality viewing. Why, lord why must motoring programmes be increasingly geared towards the lowest common denominator, i.e. the twit who thinks a 51-plate astra with a halfords faux-dtm petrol cap is cool... HOWEVER! Old lady in a Nissan 350Z vs. Perry 'sacked from being the stig coz I couldn't keep my fat mouth shut' McCarthy in a 1.0 Mk3 VW Polo. Absolutely top viewing... can you guess who won? It seems to be a show with something of a 'jekyll & hyde' personality.... DISCUSS.

I have only watched 3 episodes (when other ways to spend my time included talking to my girlfiend or doing uni work) and each contained around 0.00001 seconds of informative information or something that made me laugh. However i was generally left feeling like that was an hour of my life ill never get back. In conclusion, spend your time trying to sever your own legs using a blunt spoon, its ulimatly more rewarding and enjoyable.

I've never watched it, due to me having the vast array of four (yes four, not even five) channels that Povo-vision presents me with. I've seen snippets on t'interweb and to be honest I think I'd find something else more important to do, like take a dump, measure all the pasta quills in the bag, or collect the stuff from the plughole and fashion some kind of voodoo doll with it.
I feel for those who had to endure it.

The lack of grip bit and hazzard to handling was in no way stressed as a downside Actually on reflection thats not such a bad thing as they will all be ditchfinding at an alarming rate and provided they don't hit any innocents on the way off it'll make the roads a bit safer generally I'll keep me camera in the car for a few days I think

Best bits of the show are Emma Parker-Bowles and Lisa Rogers ....mind you, Stig Mk1 in the Polo was worth watching just for the driving lesson... ;D

The Emma Parker Bowles stuff (proper alternatives to rally and circuit racing on big budgets) is pretty decent. The Lawnmower endurance racing was the nuts.
The rest is pure bogies.

There's a thousand channels on 24 hours, seven days a week and there are only TWO that are worth watching, Dr Who and Top Gear.
Is making good telly REALLY that hard?

Yes, because they're making rubbish for all those channels 24 hours, seven days a week.
Did anyone ever watch that Petrolheads programme? As I struggle with Top Gear, there was no way I could even attempt to watch that.
