The Stateside TG franchise has been well worth a watch for a while now....

Really????

Errr YES!! Top Gear USA is properly entertaining imho. Horses for courses though - doubtless you have more taste ;-)

Yip have to second that......Very entertaining IMHO

Interesting to note that the Ginger Buffoon's own pick of executive producer has walked.........

Mmmm I get the impression that there's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that isn't boding well...

Whatever they do it won't be Fifth Gear's tedious insistence on crowbarring a Tiff Needell drift into every single car he drives.

"This week its the Bentley Continental versus the Rolls Royce phantom. First test, drifting."

I agree that if it is true that Harris is one of the presenters I am a bit dubious as to how well it will work. Top Gear is more like an entertainment programme with a car theme than an actual car show. It seems like CH's talents would be wasted at Top Gear.

Given the other names banded around to replace the late JC (Jodie Kidd, Nick Knowles etc) I think he is a good choice. He is a celeb and not a car journalist but he is known and liked and disliked in equal measure like JC.
As he has a 288GTO he obviously has impeccable taste in cars so I am willing to give him the benefit for now.

If they get the other 2 right it could work really well - Chris Harris and Henry Catchpole would work really well for me, enthusiastic puppy and posh geek - sound familiar?

Jodie Kidd was Terrible on that classic car show on chan 5 with the ever so slimy Q W chappy,So so glad she didn't get the job, I watched the Top Gear specials over xmas and a ickle tear was shed,End of an era....Not so sure about the new line up as am not overly a fan of CE Or his Crony chef Buddies...They all seem to be in your face every time you switch the tv or radio on,It didn't seem like that with J,c. and he made me laugh,I just don,t think C,E. Can be Funny at all so cant really see how it will play ,Yet..

Evans cannot talk and drive at the same time. Who would'a thought that possible ?
