    Stopped watching it years ago.
    Is it still over-scripted rubbish?

    It’s hard not to compare the presenters with the previous ones.
    It was ok, a bit samey and I didn’t know who the star was either.

    The Ferrari estate car sounded fab and my fave bit was the Panda and the Suzuki? Racing to the top of the hill.

    I like Sabine Schmidt since seeing her drive a van round the Nurburgring.

    I like those land anchors but wondered if they came loose they would fly through your windscreen!

    I also thought that they were making a proper mess of the fields. :(

    I just remembered that Bendy road :eek:

  8. First time I've watched it since the greedy trio left. It's a shame that the celeb needs a fall guy to work-off, all a bit cringy.

    It nearly died years ago when Clarkson first started, the only thing keeping it going is the revenue it now generates for the BBC around the world.

    It is what it is and l thought it was good silly entertainment and better than crying at the end of call the midwife.

    Unsure if anyone watches The Grand Tour but they've just announced that this episode is the last with the three of them together in this format.

    It was nice they had a montage with the BBC content too, nice touch that.

    It's all big adventures only.

  13. yep, they've realised that the studio bit is a mostly pointless drivel..

    when does the new (flintoff?) TG start?
