Default Worst episode EVER!

TopGear that is, halfway thru and I'm bored as hell!

Can't even use the old argument that its not a car programme but an entertainment show. Its just **** now.

Got it recording - Will watch later and feedback
======================================

Feedback - Oh dear! What the HELL has happened? Have they changed the writers / editors / directors or all three (Plus whomsoever else goes into making the program??) That was cringeworthy.

This is the first show I've found myself almost switching off. It used to be still good to watch as an entertainment show, but some bits of this episode, like the growler 'joke' were painful.

I maybe in the minority here, but I quite enjoyed the show tonight. Yes it's all a bit formulaic and predictable, but after 2 weeks of poxy tennis and the 'no fight' with the sore useless loser last night it was welcome viewing. Enjoyed the Monaco section especially.

Tonight was better than usual for some reasons, firstly, sensible cars to test, something within the reach of a few people and not a Veyron. Guest wasn't bad either.

However, stupid stunts which mean the viewer has to be treated like a plum.

As soon as Hammond got out of the caryou knew what would happen and there is no way someone would accidentally be on the city wall, just pointless guff that isn't funny.

I really enjoyed the Monaco drive round, really pushed the cars which was good to see but why oh why do they expect us to believe that presenters of a motoring programme, and indeed, motoring journalists in other ways didn't realise the GP was on.

We aren't stupid, stop treating us like that.

They have been doing this scripted **** since day one mate.

It's not Hamlet but a semi-serious motoring show.

They didn't test anything they devised a sketch around normal cars.
