Fifth Gear - new series starts next Thursday

[skinny]

hopefully Tiff will not be judging cars solely based on how well he can hold a slide in them, there's quite enough sliding about in slow mo already on top gear.

will be interesting to see how they approach the foreign trip thing.

Lol - wrong its been on Sky Showcase for the last week to watch in advance. If you don't have sky and the "all in " package you'd not see that though.

[MG CHRIS]

Watching it now

I never knew Karun Chandhok was Welsh

That alfa is still a lovely looking car and being driven over my favourite piece of road in mid wales elan valley to devils bridge, if anyone hasn't been on it its a must for a welsh drive.

Why take 2 cars to an exhaust testing tunnel, run them through as part of their comparison, tell us how magnificent they sound but play a bit of fking music over the top of the actual tunnel run?

Has JP been binned? I always liked him on 5th gear. Good chemistry with Tiff

[IN51GHT]

I'm pretty certain Cris Harris will be on Fifth Gear at some point in the near future with Tiff...

Yup, no Plato this series. Looks like they are going to have a "guest presenter" each episode. I know they have Bruno Senna in one, and Chris Harris in another

Massive shame IMO, always enjoyed it when him and Tiff did the dogfights

Good episode although shame about JP.

[haggishunter]

Wasn't the best, Plato is missed.

[Cylinder 8]

Wasn't bad but I felt they tried to cram too much into one episode. Maybe if they'd done the Alfa OR the Jag, rather than both, it would have been better. Everything felt a little rushed IMO.

I'll still be watching it next week though.

[V8covin]

The format hasn't really changed since day one has it.Nothing we haven't seen before.
One positive,VBH is a much better presenter than Jodie Kidd
