Just saw on ad on ch5 for their new motoring programme Fifth Gear
It starts on Monday 8th April at 8pm.

'Auto Express' also carries a news item that Jeremy Clarkson is definitely coming back to head up a revamped BBC Top Gear, but no dates are mentioned.

A revamped Top Gear? Who else will they have as 5th Gear seems to have all the old "cast" from Top Gear?

I would quite like to see the like of Sue Baker, Q Wilson, and other presenters of 10 years ago back on Top Gear.

For those who still have an anologue satalite see the motoring program on Vox on sudays at I think 4pm uk time makes all the uk motoring programs together look like Noddy went to town with big ears

You may like him or loathe him, but Jeremy Clarkson is needed to get TG back on top of the motoring programmes pile. His motoring & comment columns in the Sunday Times are well worth reading.

Hello i am new here, but i would like to say that i watch a program on homes and gardens, on SKY. its called 'a car is reborn'. I find it very interesting. The idea is take a restoration project and restore it, its a bit like Salvage Squad, but the time they do it in is more real.
|
Yep great program. You may also see the sister series called A Car is Born (building a kit car from a Sierra) and a Plane is Born (building a plane).
The problem with the programming on these channels is that they seem to screen the programs in a sort a random order so I have only seen the occasional episode.
I did catch the one at the end of the e-type resoration though where he admitted to spending 80k on restoring it.

Jeremy should recruit Tom Hardiment of (or ex-of) The Garage on The Green as his used car man, exotic car supplier. They would be very good together.

Can't see Fat Tom doing it (and as far as I know he is still at G on the G).

I thought 'Driven' was good fun tonight. (Apparently Jason and Amanda are an item in case any of you were wondering.) Made the BPC output look like formula stuff.

This is a very mixed thread, but why does CM say Tom Hardiment wouldn't do Top Gear? If the money was right, he certainly would. He was by far the best on a series we did for ITV2 three years ago.
HJ
|
Only said it because I couldn't envisage Tom being on Top Gear, although as you say if the money was right......
It would be amusing to see him partner JC.
|
|
Not THE JC, I take it. On the other hand, perhaps he thinks he is.
