Almost inevitable, what little I've seen of it I though that getting shot of the shouty speccy one would improve things dramatically.

Fractions everywhere. I admire their optimism though ...

Next Sunday’s episode is likely to suffer a further ratings blow, with the BBC announcing that it will move to the earlier 6.30pm slot if England qualify for the Euros quarter-final.

Did they really have a plan for that?

Breathtaking optimism...

I've just smashed my TV up in protest at the Top Gear elite.

That will learn them.

I can't even read that page, My PC is 2 months old and that page doesn't scroll and then gives me a message about scripts.

Odd, it opens and scrolls just fine on my four year old iPad 3.

Isn't this just a spin to try and get a few more viewers to watch it again, a bit of friction might make it interesting

STW does that to me, and I'm viewing it on a 3D CAD drafting machine!

What it is about STW adds that makes the site so slow? It's not the amount of adverts, its not more than usual, less than a lot of sites, but no other site seems to crash PC's like STW.

LeBlanc has denied saying it, mind. Minor detail.

The only thing I've had any issues with were the huge pop-up ads that covered the whole site, Tudor and Maserati, nothing else really seems to cause slowing up or anything. I only ever use my old iPad or my phone, but I do use DuckDuckGo as my default browser, which, for whatever reason, stopped those particular ads.
I can see all the others, if I chose to, by zooming back out. Odd.

If you have only watched the first New TG, I would give the others a try I have enjoyed them and extra gear.

The Cinematography ? Camera work is Brilliant for one thing.

Evans is still a dick though.

Evans has such an annoying girly voice. I like Matt Le wotsit; he's a proper man's man and charming with it.

Just heard a rumour about Evans, which may or may not come out soon which maybe the real reason for his exit.

Sorry to be vague, it was a rumour after all.

nope... remember her being mildly fit when i was at school. living in Germany means i don't get too see her in the media and was never a fan of Dr. Who....

read on wiki she is the same age as me. i've aged better, imo, and my beard is more impressive than hers.
