I hadn't watched 5th Gear for a year or two, but thought I'd video it and give it a chance due to some positive comments on here.
Big mistake! It was awful: who are those two talentless unfunny gimps that present it and that geeky nerd in the Golf? Tiff was never a good presenter and VBH is just silly. Plato is the only one worth watching. Dull, dull, dull...
How many 5th Gear Presenters does it take to change a light-bulb? Well I've counted 6 already! WHY??? Top Gear present a superior hour-long show with no adverts using just 3 presenters.
I'm afraid that my DVD fast forward button wasn't just used for the adverts, so I won't bother watching it again.

Recorded it last night. Will watch tonight.
Tom Ford is the only one who actually can present. Tiff's head wobbles when he talks.
Show should be Tom, Jonny, Tiff, and Plato.
I do think when Tom & Jonny have there challenges, they are quite funny and they do compliment each other. Same as Tiff and Plato compliment each other while driving fast.
Ditch the annoying Henderson, and Mr. Inappropriate

Watched it last night. Utter rubbish. The Track car feature could have been so much better. Do a proper Slalom test. Why bring cardboard boxes into it?
Mr. Inappropriate needs to be sacked ASAP or shot. Even Lovejoy was better.
Show wasn't too bad last series. This series looks like it's back to normal............. Rubbish.
Still, this weeks competition is pretty good.

Would be much better without those two w@nkers (tom and the bunny boiler gimp). Vickys had her day aswell she is just plain annoying now and the only reason I'd stick it in her would be to shut her squeeling voice up. It needs a new producer John Bentlys never been any good (even worse at presenting).
Thought the Zafira accident was just plain scaremongoring. It doesn't matter what your driving if a 7 ton lorry smacks you up the **** in motorway que you're f*cked! I'll be watching Ice road truckers tonight.

Am i the only person here who thinks VBH is a munter? I personally find a woman talking about cars unattractive so with that in mind including her ugliness i can't watch 5th Gear.
The only thing more unattractive than a woman talking "cars" is a woman pretending to know about "cars". I here plenty of hanger-ons talking complete waffle about Subaru's and it makes me wanna shoot them.

1) Albanian hand-car washes that use those silly plastic squeegees to dry your car off, because they pick up grit and scratch your paintwork.
2) Garage forecourt Spray washes, because the brush attachment is always full of grit from the previous users and scratches your paintwork.
3) Garage forecourt Car Washes, because the brushes whip your car to ****.
So 5th Gear, after all that experimentation, pray tell what's the best way to wash your car then?
Ummmm, dunno guv.
I'm one of the few people who doesn't present 5th Gear, but for what it's worth I would say hose down your car with clean water first to loosen and soften the dirt, and then wash with a clean sponge and some decent car wash liquid (not Washing Up liquid because it takes the polish/wax off), rinse off with your hose/watering can and then dry off with a decent (large) chamois (not one of those rubbish imitation ones). Don't forget to clean and dry in those door/bonnet/boot shuts if you've got time.
If you drop your sponge or chamois, don't forget to clean it straightaway before wiping your car with it: I'm not sure that all the hand-carwash migrants remember that.

NO ! Can't stand the silly biatch 
Disagree with you there, I love it when wimmins are genuinely interested. My missuse was a proper petrolhead, into F1, rallying, joining me on track days and Scooby events, until she got maternal and now she's a proper wimmin with moods and stuff
Like Ginny Buckley 
The other wimmin car prog presenter whom needs tying by one ankle to the back of a Veyron before handing me the keys 
I remember Kate Humble and Julia Bradbury both presenting TG though, and I still would with either, or both
