After JC on Top Gear; 5th Gear is now stuck in 2nd Gear and seems very stale.

I disagree - I thought Top Gear dragged on too long and suspect it will not be able to maintain the content.
5th Gear followed the Goldilocks format....not too much, not too little....just right!

Driven! I have sometimes enjoyed this programme; but last week's Italian Job feature was from a previous Ch 4 1 hour special. The show has far more potential than 5th Gear and Mike Brewer has to be the best non Beeb presenter.

Driven; they're stuck in 3rd Gear!

Arse. How can you watch the bit on Tiff in the Enzo and say that? Top gear has potential but it looks like being the JC show and as for Driven it does have some good bits particually old Jas Plato but it is not in the same league.
