Chris Harris must modernise and up his game

[EricE]

Patreon donation account is still running. I bet he'll stretch his last 4 videos over a span of 4 months to get the most out of the donations.

See Ari?

I make that fourteen presenters sat round the table - it's going to be quite a show!

Chris Harris may well be the other presenter, or he may have another role within the production of the show, but since they've announced Matt LeBlanc and haven't yet announced the other presenter, I think it's fair to conclude that either the decision hasn't yet been reached or the position hasn't been accepted (the latter of which is pretty unlikely I'd have thought).

Fear not though, I'm sure we'll all find out the truth soon enough.

BBC article here: Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz join Top Gear line-up

Same details from the TG site: http://www.topgear.com/car-news/top-gear-tv/meet-y...

Its going to be the One Show with cars isn't it?

[DonkeyApple]

one thing that picture makes clear is that CH could understudy Warwick Davies for some extra cash at Christmas.

Good luck to him. He's clearly grafted for a long time and deserves to make the step from the Internet to TV.

[e21Mark]

Matt LeBlanc looks like he's been photoshopped into the pic.

(I realise he hasn't been)

[otolith]

How very diverse.

[KTF]

In true BBC fashion, all the diversity bases have been covered. Cant be seen to be discriminating now...

It does seem quite a lot of presenters though and I agree with the comment that it might be the one show with cars type format.

[otolith]

Evans has assembled a gang, who would have thought it?

[FeelingLucky]

Sabine Schmitz and Chris Harris will enhance the show greatly, Eddie Jordan though is a complete tool.
What on earth were they thinking.

I'll give him the benefit until it airs.

[LankyLegoHead]

I don't see whats to moan at. We still have a Clarkson/Hammond/May, and now we have another Car show to enjoy.

There are 2 car based programs where there were once one. Its a win win. Even if its just to propel some of these presenters on to better things.

I'll reserve all judgment of the new TopGear until it airs. Until then, I don't understand the amount of moaning going on around the internet.

The Insignificant Seven

[M1C]

I say lets give it a go!

Chris Evans - hmm..never really a fan of his...but lets see.

Chris Harris - YES! Im happy about this as i rate him.

Sabine - Yes, could be good.

Matt - Yeah why not, he's funny and did drive very well on the SIARPC bit

Rory - hadnt actually heard of him before but just watch a vid of his and didnt hate him...

Eddie Jordan??!! Hmmm??!!!

The Stig - well, at least we know what he's going be like.

It's going to be interested to see how these lot are going to work together (or not, if they are all doing separate films in different places, kind of thing)

So i say lets see how it goes.

They must be maybe coming away from the whole studio kind of thing? I cant see them all presenting at the same time and place?

Also i think the whole image is 'shopped. I think they have all had their picture taken and put together on the same image.

Starts in May, not long really!

[cat with a hat]

harris, evans & schmitz make a good combo.. Not sure what the hell the others are doing there.

[Blackbird425]

I'd leave it to Sabine and can the rest. I think the rest of them will be intolerably smug. Monkey disappeared up his own arse some time ago, goodness knows what this will do to him.
Not sure why Evans thinks he needs 6 co-presenters.

[R8VXF]

Evans will be the host in the studio, TFI Friday style, with the others orbiting around him, in and out of the studio. Expect video link between studio and track for wackiness, and audience participation, interspersed with pre-shot video reviews.

With your accurate ability to predict the future do you have tomorrow's lottery numbers too?

I'm not even being sarcastic.

[LankyLegoHead]

As above, TFI Friday style I'm imagining. To me thats good!

But yeah, will be silly of us to pass judgment before we see the finished article. But PH forum goers wouldn't do such a thing...
