    I'd actually forgot they were playing. If they carry on the way they are, they'll be joining us next season.

    oh, while I remember. How's the zooped up tranny van? Mate just progressed to a 53 plate and she's trying to work out how you watch tv and drive at the same time. Nice, still a tranny tho [​IMG].

    Top Gear

    I'm with the politicians on this one. The programme is presented by an overgrown schoolboy, and like most things for which we pay our license fee, it cr*p.

    Not the only one

    Personally I love the program - but I do know some people dont. Its viewing figures point to it being popular though and it would be a travesty if its taken off air because it is deemed policically incorrect. Lots of programmes have differing appeals to different people and Top Gear is definitely worth keeping

    RE: Not the only one

    Agree with Farnham completely on this one.

    I find it utter tripe - 5% cars and 95% clarkson's ego.

    But I would vigourously defend the right of others to find it enjoyable and specificaly, the right of the BBC to produce it without interference from the infernal poltically correct, Health and Safety rules all brigade.

    Is there a petition to get rid of this nasty programme ???.........Cazi

    Cazi you will probably not understand the interest of Top Gear because it is for boys of a certain age (2gay)
    I.E. for teens and early twenties boys that (or still do) collected match box cars

    I go along with everything you say

    Can't stand the programme , or the apparently immature boys with toys attitude of the presenters . However,TV is not there just to appeal to my own personal likes . If I don't like certain programmes , I can simply switch channels . Top Gear has a great number of viewers and fans and there is no way it should be removed from the screens .
