I hate that ginger tit. :(

Seriously, he's such a loveable guy. How can you hate him?

 

Before Chris takes over Jeremy is returning for a special feature length episode to wrap up the last few episodes from the last season which were not shown.

Not sure if he is presenting but he's in the recorded videos.

But really, it's only 75 minutes, shorter than the usual 90. If it's gonna be a special feature, it's gotta be at least 2 hours.

I don't find him funny at all. I don't like how he behaves and I never have. I don't know, he just doesn't appeal to me at all. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

I have never heard of Chris Evens before yesterday. It seems there is a ton of devision over him being chosen.

 

I have little interest in UK top gear without Clarkson, May and Hammond though.

Well the three of them have given Evans their blessing for success, as he is also producing it as well as presenting it.

Have a look at tfi friday, which was Chris Evans' first major TV show. It was a bit of a cult hit in the UK and might have been more than a bit chaotic. Evans himself said that he had lost the plot when filming it. These days he's toned down quite a bit but is still very eccentric, chatty and quite entertaining IMO, but can sometimes seem a bit of a marmite character.

i'm probably gonna watch the first episode featuring evans to see if it's gonna be a flop or not. If not, then maybe Top Gear hasn't exactly failed after all. If so, i need my parents to get me netflix.

Clarkson wrote a thing in the Sun today. It's full of really nice memories. Link to imgur if you don't want to bother with the sun paywall: http://imgur.com/a/vwZmh

I haven't seen much from Evans, but I'll give the new TG a shot when it comes out. Btw, on Sunday 28th, the BBC will show the two remaining films that already have been made with Clarkson in it.

Oh so like a 2 part finale? Because when i heard the finale was 75 minutes, i nearly shat my pants because i thought that was too short for a finale to a 13 year running show. So is it gonna be like 75 minutes in two episodes or 75 minutes each part of the finale?

No, it's a one parter, but only using the last two adventures they went on, they're not two full length episodes with the news, car reviews etc. in them.

Damn. Really, i wished they had a 2 part finale, 75 minutes each or something like that. Does anyone know if they're gonna do the hybrid supercar showdown with the P1, 918 and the LaFerrari? I really want that to happen. I've been waiting so long, but since Top Gear isn't gonna air anymore, i was pissed. I hope they do it in the finale.

Really, i desperately hope it's featured in the final. I've been waiting so long to see it. I'm probably gonna be crying at the end of the finale, because it's the end of a legend, an icon. i might as well to change it to (whatever the new show's gonna be named) Fan Club.

I know. it sucks that they were able to get all the cars for the showdown, but now they can't do it anymore.
