I see Freddie Flintoff and Paddy McGuinness are going to join Chris Harris.
Should be good for a laugh with those two

They will never recreate the way original Top Gear was ran.

I agree, both of them are entertaining having seen them in other TV shows, I reckon it will be worth a watch.

I'd like to see it go back to being a show about cars that everman might own and drive, with the odd supercar thrown in.
Star in a reasonably priced car is just **** licking, and the laddish behaviour is past it's sell by date. Move on Beeb.

Bring back Chris Goffey and William Woollard



No, seriously, never do this, although it would still be better than the Butler Henderson era

They keep banding around Jodie Kidd but it never seems to happen Harris, Kidd and Jay Kay would be a great combo.

Can't see Flintoff setting the car world on fire. Hey ho. Might be wrong

Clarkson et al still made it what it is/was

CHRIST, NO

The production company that took over (and ruined) the IoM TT coverage on ITV4 this year had her as one of the main presenters, she was fecking awful
Although, to be fair, she wan't as bad as the excruciating Matt Roberts, AKA the Jim Rosenthal of Motorcycle racing

Yep, the TT coverage took a definite dive this year! Not a patch on previous years.

Sadly it's been proven that just a car show does not attract the number of viewrs to make it viable. Needs to be able to attract sufficient viewers that are not that interested in motoring to be successful.

So long as they don't get that arrogant *** Jay Kay to present it or the terrible ginger to55er again it can only get better. Still terrible compared to the Clarkson years though.

Just watching Top Gear Perfect Road Trip re-run with Clarkson and Hammond. Round the South of France

They made that program just so bloody brilliant.

Beeb won' re-create it without them. Whatever they try...

I've only seen first one with the new 3 presenters. Didn't think they were toooo bad.

Didn't realise you could pick up a Boxter for £4k now !
