We watched it. Thaught ot was quite good, much better than the last one. Chris' piece on the Farari was excelent and the challenge was fun...

yep liked it....weakest link for me is Reid, who could become ( hopefully not ) the Hamster of this version. Like or loathe, i love LeBlancs dry delivery....soooo glad that Evans didnt get a 2nd bite.

Good show. Glad they are back on the Top Gear track and the Toyota is a good car to use too. Like the Ferrari and the challenge. Much better than before. :lol:

yeah it was "ok", a hundred times better than the last series without the shouty Evans but not as good as the Grand Tour, but then the Grand Tour wasn't as good as the old Top Gear, which makes me think this format has become a bit stale.

I thought Chris Harris was really nervous, looked like it was his first ever time on tv.

challenge was good, loved the Ferrari, the rest was too "scripted"

I enjoyed it more than I expected, Rory and Chris are likeable and once they relax, will be very good I think :)

It was alright,rory will i think always be a bit amature a bit kids tv/you tube,matt seems like he could of done with a few more takes to get it right in the studio(and i reckon proper kicked off when chris hit him up the bum) and chris dont seem to relaxed...but they aint mates...yet? The 1st 3 episodes of the gand tour felt abit scripted and stiff so maybe they will relax and go for a few beers with each other!
Chris could do the job alone we all know that.the gt 86 has been a good idea for years the crap car got boring years ago a proper car will see the celebs(if they can get any) going for it in the dry and having a bit of fun.time will tell if they"gel" but the plank has gone thats the main thing.
