Top Gear 2016 who should the presenters be?

[maomao]

because Clarkson made a ton of money for them

And Evans hasn't yet.

 

[T & P]

I had kind of hoped the new host would use the first episode to poke fun at the things Clarkson loves the most and give air time to the things he hates. Like perhaps crush a Range Rover with a tank followed by racing various super bikes around the track and ensure their lap times go to the top of the leaderboard. And make a Prius the next reasonably priced car. But Evans is a pal, so it ain't going to happen.

 

[Poot]

I fucking hate Chris Evans. Not that I had any intention of watching Tory Gear but now I risk seeing his stupid face when I change channel.

"Ooh I wonder what my rich friends are driving. They're all fabulous because they're rich and they give so much money to charity" FUCK THE FUCK OFF CUNT FACE.

 

[Favelado]

don't forget you fucking toothbrush

Evans is a cunt and one of the best send ups I've ever seen is when Paul Kaye did a great little sketch sending up his Radio 1 show which has sadly never surfaced on the internetz.

However,

There was one episode of DFYT when the whole audience got sent on holiday at the end and it was amazing telly.

And Evans hasn't yet.

bit early to judge how much top gear will make with Evans

 

[hash tag]

CE is a bit of JC reincarnated. Now JC is out, I might be tempted to watch. Evans is promising revised formats which can only be good. I see they are interviewing for co-presenters, Edd China?

 

[dlx1]

Yes seem him greases monkey on telly but not his side kick mate

 

[dilute micro]

There must be something in the formula for producing a popular money making car show that requires adolescence. I'll watch the new show because it can't be any worse than the last one. I don't expect that a show should be dry and boring but it should be about the cars and not the personalities and silly circus stunts...but then I'm just a viewer and not a BBC executive.

Tall man is my favorite of all mechanics on any show. Only thing is - presenters tend to be more of the wealthy enthusiasts and not working man types.

 

[dessiato]

If not Edd, what about:

From For the Love of Cars. He's a good enough grease monkey, and has experience restoring up market cars for rich people. I would imagine that this mix of skills could work.

Yeah. Chris Evans has an annoying childrens tv energy - the reason Top Gear worked is that at its heart is a level of grumpiness from the presenters which keeps the whole thing grounded somehow. I only caught TG occasionally and despite the many annoying elements it was an entertaining watch for what it was - there is no way a Chris Evans led one will be half as good.

I find that whenever the question of who should be the new X, whether its James Bond or Richard Whiteley, the answer is usually Bill Bailey

I wonder if we will get Evans showing of one his own cars in each epsiode?

In one of the love of cars show, they showed a Daimler Dart police car which I believe Evans bought for approx. £50K.

 

[ska invita]

Evans is almost as big a cock as Clarkson. Why does the BBC feel the need to find the biggest arsehole they can and give them 5 million quid?

because paxman retired

I saw the programme, it was about the SD1 police car, I didn't know the Dart was CE's car though.

Best presenter would be the German lady from German Vs England challenge. Have google spelling of her name.

I like that show

 

[dessiato]

I like that show

What I like so much is that it isn't just about cars and fixing them up, but it also has humour and entertainment value, which is why I think that Ant might be better than Edd who can appear too dry for the TG format.

 

[dlx1]

What a great show him & Danny Dyer

they do like a bit of a sob story too - there was one about a beetle that had been bought by a bloke into beetles who then died and his mate couldn't afford to do it up

Was that the one where someone bought it and gave it back to him, or was that the rally driver?

IIRC that was the Golf.

hope they go with Jodie kidd !

hope they go with Jodie kidd !

With her personality on screen, I think that she would be a good choice. Does she still race?

think so

 

[SpookyFrank]

Chris Evans, yuck. He's got a face for radio and a voice for mime.

 

[weltweit]

We know that Evans owns lots of exotic Ferraris (which he has painted all white, yuk!), is stinking rich and knows a lot about cars in one way, but can he drive or fix cars at all or will he rely on the crew when they are on their adventures overseas?
