I particularly liked his tribute to Brunel in Great Britons. It was an excellent piece of broadcasting, informative, entertaining and delivered with non-stop infectious enthusiasm.
"let it go man he's your hero, i respect you for that" I never said he was my hero - although I will admit to being a fan of Top Gear (along with several other people, it would appear). I'll "let it go" if you do too, and stop banging on about how you hate him and love Evans...
this thread is getting like the valencia thread, apart from we are condemming the new show before its even had a chance. Why not shelve the arguing until the first or even second show, then let them have it! or is that too easy? Come on guys, its winter and we're just bored......
That's a rubbish idea. Mind you, I was going to call your idea a rubbish idea even before I knew what it was going to be.
My god, no! So none of it was real and they were just trying to make a TV show as entertaining as possible? Next you'll be telling me that Ross Kemp wasn't in the boot of the Twingo they jumped into the sea, or that The Stig isn't real. My illusions have been shattered
Tbh all this Chris Evans stuff sounds to me a little bit like when the press spent 6months saying that Daniel Craig as the new bond got 'travel sick' and 'kept getting hurt'..... Hmm, he turned out okay didn't he?
lol 4 pages of defending the bubble headed twat and not one person mentioned it was all a set up? I thought it was all about “banter” and fast cars not a fraudulent gobshite pulling the wool over peoples eyes and only thinking about mentioning it when he’s been sacked for punching a colleague in the face. You live and learn I guess.
You do realise in those 4 pages, you've called Clarkson ........the bubble headed twat, a fraudulent gobshite, a perm headed tory shitehouse, a horrible twat, a tedious dinosaur, a racist tory bigot, a racist bully. All very churlish mate, if you can't get you point across without the school yard name calling. It does nothing for your position.
Firstly - The "rolling Robin" story is nothing new. It was discussed in various interviews months ago. (Including Clarkson pointing out the stupidity of the H&S team insisting that all loose items were stripped out of the vehicle, but that they insisted that he carried a safety hammer to break the window in an emergency - which then, ironically, crashed around inside the car, hitting him on the head). Secondly - of course it was set up. It was a JOKE. The Yorkshire Reliant owners that appeared in the film obviously knew it was a joke. At least they had a sense of humour. Thirdly - if you read the "revelation" that is also a joke. Does anyone really believe that Clarkson, Hammond and May have Reliant Robins as company cars?
Ok children. I thought we were doing well to this point. Abusive and derogatory posts have been deleted, those that posted them have been warned and the thread is now closed. Thanks.
