    … and need a deep and sensible approach to motoring journalism.

    All this needs is the Stig… 🙂

    Bah.

    Fred’s class, I love that look of slight bewilderment he always has, like “this is my job?”. Some of the episodes are pretty silly (TACTICAL EVERYTHING!) but I loved the bugs episode.

    And yeah, Roadkill Alaska trip, fantastic. Though they seem a bit short of ideas now. Did like the boat episode. “Was it worth it? Not really”.

    Roadkill (in fact the motortrend channel) is good, that chris harris on cars and mighty car mods (who have mechanical stig).

    Road kill and the tested channel have kind of restored my faith america is not a land of the nutter.

    ill put a tenner on clarkson and the other two turning up on a new motoring programme by the end of the year on channel 5.

    too much cash to be made just to let it go

    No doubt those 3 will get the band back on the road

    But the weird thing is I don’t know whether that will solve the problem. Would they be allowed just transport the show and its contents, probably not.

    I think the risk is that a new company gives them a longer leach on the new format and that some how ruins the mix.

    I also think a commercial channel might be happy to let them swear and be bit xenophobic and sexist. But be utterly paranoid about then slagging of say Puegoet if Puegoet are big advertisers

    I reckon that top gear could continue to work if they had single episode hosts alongside Hammond and May. In the same way that have I got news for you did it (arguably making for a better programme oin the long run).

    I’ve been watching the Classic Car Show with Jodie Kid. Not great but better than I expected and she is nice to watch.

    That Road Kill looks fun though. Off to send it to my TV from the Youtube app on my phone…. 😀
