Anyone watch Fith Gear last night?

I think they have lost the plot.  :?
They are trying very unsuccessfully so far to be like Top Gear.
I almost turned off the only interesting bit was the piece on the computer controlled Golf.

Thought that VBH in the Mini racing the radio-controlled thing was OK (best bit was VBH  =P~ )............the rest was just plain old boring cr4p,

Due to Hamsters accident the new series of TG (due 6th or 8th October) has been delayed - good job I have a few of the 'best of' on video, need my weekly fix of the prog.

I gave up watching it after that fat idiot with the bad haircut thrashed up and down a very wet greenlane in a Disco 3. I was one of many who complained and the response given was drivel.VBH wasnt a good enough reason to keep watching.

Fifth Gear simply demonstrates how slick the Top Gear production is. The camera work, the script, the presentation.... everything is of a higher quality on TG.

TG gives the impression of being thrown together, but it patently isn't. It is just very professionally produced.

Oh, and don't you all just laugh your socks off at the woman in her 4x4 'comedy sketch'...... yeah, right!

In fact, I'd go as far as to say I prefer Vroom Vroom to Fifth Gear.... and that's saying something!

Tiff needell! He's about as charismatic as this keyboard i'm poking at, dull dull dull. Then there's Vicky Broad Bean Harvester, who wouldn't drive a car of less than £100.000 because mummy wouldn't approve. The other chap is ok, a bit glimpy but ok. None of it is a patch on TG though.
