Do they not get embarrassed blatantly copying topgear?
Although it's never been as good, at least they done their own thing.
This episode has had a double decker bus race and racing a car across europe to catch a plane.

But don't you find that their show is more down to earth and more car based??
Rather than celebrity interview's etc as on Top Gear.
I still prefer Top Gear though

Thats exactly why I watch it, although it's different from topgear they done their own thing which was fair enough.
They can never do top gear stuff as well as top gear though so they shouldn't bother trying.

If we could get a blend of top gear and fifth gear, without some of the fifth gear presenters i'd be a happy man.

Hense the "some".
I like Tiff and Plato (basically because they can drive). Shame we get to see very little of VBH these days. It was refreshing to see a woman get stuck in the way she did. As long as she didn't scream and laugh.

Top gear need to do less stupid guests with fuck all to do with cars and less buying shit cars to drive a billion miles of motorway to a foreign country where the door falls off. They need to do more of this -

5th gear i find a bit hit and miss, im just not interested in people carriers and chelsea tractors which they seem to have on a lot. Pretty good when they do proper cars though.

I watch it sometimes.
The only reason Top Gear works is because of who it is that presents it. So thats why when fifth gear try to do similar you just end up sitting their cringing at them.
The road test aspect is better on fifth gear normally but thats it. I'd rather buy a magazine to find out about road tests though

Well I'm up for burning his hair off with a blow torch if you want to help John? He was semi-normal before the crash, he seems to have forgotten where his hairdresser is now

Too commercial, was a car program with some entertainment but now it's an entertainment program with some cars, too much like top gear.
Hammond was good at the start, now his too fake but still better then the boring nubs on 5th gear.

Yip, he doesn't add anything at all anymore, he must be there to attract housewives or something along those lines.
