Top Gear's back this Sunday (29/01/2012)
Discussion
Bad news for Top Gear fans. If you love childish japes, blowing up caravans and overly scripted "humour", this Sunday's episode has NONE OF THAT.
If, however, you love supercars and want to see them being driven hard in a totally car-centric episode, then you're in luck.
Best episode in years IMO and not just because I'm hidden in the audience somewhere. Watch it!

About time really!They must've been taking note of all the criticism.
The last few series have all been EXACTLY the same.Test a supercar then the rest of the show was just some stupid escapade with the same old tiresome jokes and gags and something catching fire.Oh,and a star in a reasonably priced car in the middle.
Time for a change guys,more cars,less bulls

t!The India Christmas special was so appalling, it was the first TG episode ever that I couldn't be bothered to finish watching. Absolutely painful, cringe-inducing and just jaw-droppingly unfunny.
This Sunday's one is the complete opposite. Very little if anything seemed set up. I don't want to build up expectation too much, but I was quite emotional by the end of it, thinking "thank fvck for that, they can still make a brilliant programme about cars".
However, they do have form for starting off the season with a corker, only to go back to the same old tired format, but hopefully the reaction will be so good to this week's one, they will have a go at a full 7 episodes of top quality car entertainment.

I agree with you whole heartedly, but in order to avoid 25 pages of schoolyard politics could I just say, on behalf on the U-25s of PH, if you don't like it, don't watch it. I know this begs the question that if you don't watch it you won't know if it's still any good but......oh dammit, now look what you've started......
