Watched the last 2 episodes of 5th Gear and what the hell is going on?! Who is the guy presenting with Vicky?! Not someone I want to see on 5th Gear anyway. On that note, what happened to Jason Plato? Tiff is such a great guy to watch though with fantastic car control and should be a bigger part of the show.

ranting

Last season was on a whole different level, if they keep this up it's not even worth watching anymore

Wasn't sure of where to post this topic, hope this is ok.....

Still worth watching for Vicky BH. She may have put on a few pounds since the last series but she is still a top bird. That squealing noise she makes on the track is just such a turn on... Imagine what that sounds like in the bedroom.. thumbup

Seriously. you know you would...

The new guy's Tim Lovejoy, best known for presenting Soccer AM on Sky. rolleyes

If they needed another presenter, why not choose someone who is either a motoring journalist or a racing driver? Lovejoy's got no conenction with motoring at all!

They've really boo boo'd with the new format.

Have to say, I quite enjoy listening to Tim Lovejoy, spent many a Sat morning sobering up with Soccer AM on the telly...he's an ex-XFM dj as well...

Well I work in Brighton and seem to be innundated daily with blerks in drag - gimme VBH any day AND her squealing - oh yessss!!!

Rest of the programme is shite IMHO, a pale imitation of it's former glory, and shan't be bothering to watch it any more.

So there !

Chris Goffey and Tiff Needell and little Hammond.
Chris is a legend and always will be, Tiff is a driving god and doesn't spout crap like JC or Plato, and Hammond (when JC is not around) is actually a pretty good motoring journo and i'm sure would learn huge amounts from Mr Goffey.

Where do i sign??

Even Tiff gets on my tits these days. Trying a little too hard at being the jovial presenter!

Its all inane banta not even about CARS!!! they just up themselves for half the program and spend the other half telling us what is coming up, adverts, and the competition....(2 mins of actual cars in between).

Utter Rubbish!!!!

those of you that say VBH cant drive are insane. if she couldnt she wouldnt have been employed as an instructor at a number of race tracks.

the show is beyond shite, but VBH could out drive all of us at any given time.

PH formula as follows:

Very average looking bird + driving ability/interest + internet car geeks/blokes = insanely out of proportion lust

Just watching FG off the Sky+ box now. It's every bit as dire as last weeks.

The programme was always a poor relation to Top Gear. It's now more like the illegitimate ginger lovechild that everyone pretends doesn't exist.

Lose Lovejoy. He's clueless, irritating and makes me want to chuck the remote at him whenever he's on screen.
