I think he's a good presenter.

but this show could be a bit of a death knell to his career.

Not seen it.

But if you compare the earlier Top Gear episodes to the more recent. He seems to be getting a little more full of himself.
Not sure if that's him trying to make himself look good, or showing his true colours, who knows.


He's definetly had his teeth whitened though

Hmm, do they do phones ins on the this 5:00 show? I might try and phone in, and see if I can drop that in a sentence

And that's exactly the point. Professional integrity goes out the window with the amount of dosh these blokes are on.

the fact that he's gone from the BBC to do something on ITV says something in itself..... total sell out, happens to most of em in the end when you wave enough cash in front of their eyes...

Given the opportunity, I'd do exactly the same.

Why should he remain 'loyal' to the BBC?

Didn't he want a Dodge Charger at some point? I recall some banter about him getting one and it costing him a fortune so maybe he's just trying to keep it, as well as the Morgan and his family. Little wonder that he's taking every job going.

Unfortunately managed to catch the end of one of the shows this week. They were reviewing RV's... both were p1ss poor tbh - just didnt seem to flow, was'nt funny or informative and the sight of Mel Giedroich's(sp) rear end when she crawled into a tent put me right off my dinner..

Bet/hope it won't make a second season.
