If we can stop 'our' Chris from over-laughing that'd be good but genuinely thrilled to see the Programme and Team in top health!
I think it's how he is, if you listen to the collecting cars podcasts he's a right gigglebox. Not always a loud guffaw into the microphone but frequently is.It's no big issue really, is it?
Flicking through the channels this evening, came across the ‘Best of TG’.
I haven’t watched much of Flintoff etc as don’t find it particularly entertaining but thought the best bits might be worth a watch.
Turns out I was wrong. There’s zero camaraderie between the 3, seems totally forced, Flintoffs voice overs are completely lifeless and Harris might be a good driver but what a bore, he almost put me to sleep. Also the format hasn’t changed at all since the Clarkson days meaning they are never going to recreate the TG glory years.
The Grand Tour all day long for me.

You won't be watching anything new past the next couple of specials then. I haven’t watched much of Flintoff etc as don’t find it particularly entertaining but thought the best bits might be worth a watch.

If you're going to use every programme for comparison you're never going to find anything totally original. https://youtu.be/9HyQCdo70qw?t=2420

Scrapheap challenge had some absolutely amazing episodes and teams. https://youtu.be/9HyQCdo70qw?t=2420
I'm not sure that 'off road ice cream van' is exactly a one of kind idea that TG has somehow plagiarised though. I'd imagine that it's a completely different approach.

I feel exactly the opposite. New tg was a breath of fresh air, whilst the grand tour stumbled on like a drunk elderly uncle at a family wedding, still thinking his jokes are funny and he is cool....I haven’t watched much of Flintoff etc as don’t find it particularly entertaining but thought the best bits might be worth a watch.

Coincidence or not? Edd China's latest video (albeit a short clip) happens to be an ice cream van...
