I just want to ask if anyone watched the first show in the new series of Fifth Gear (five) the other night. Like, to the very end of the show?
I think I watched about 20 minutes of it (its hard to tell with all the commercials, competitions, quizes and chit-chat) - then concluded that it and 'The Gaget Show' are made by the same production team.
Al Gore?
Both are simply awful (with a seemingly distinct lack of items). I don't consider 'Trash my Ride' an item. LOL - cue: JCB digger? [non car-person-host asks driver] "How you feeling" (as said 'digger' tries to 'crush' the crap out of a VW golf - does nothing unexpected and so tries to manouvere its 30tonnes of actual weight onto the vehicle).
If you ask me, it would have been more fun watching a 2CV trying to do the same - leaving said nackered 'ol VW with just a couple of scratches. They could call it "Scratch my Bitch."
Only the folks at Brainiac know how to destroy things.
Anyway, why is Fifth Gear now presented from a 50's forecourt dinner? While Vicky B-H just sat their looking nice, and the non-car person spoke about himself - I spent my time trying to find out what was on the chalk-boards.
Maybe it gets a mauling and subsequently gets better - but, if you ask me, I don't think even the talents of Vicky B-H and Tiff are going to save it. Or, are they trying to emulate the BBC Show?
