I will not watch another...wot a load of shit

WTF I forgot that bloody dinosaur Eddie Jordan was involved!!

That's it!! I'm not watching another episode either until they do one of two things : -

1) Fire Chris Evans from the show and the BBC - and make LeBlanc new main presenter

2) The BBC admit they have made a crock of shit with TG as it is now

I read somewhere they have a £7.9m budget for TG overseas trips I bet they blew half of that on going to South Africa....

I notice they've said the first episode of The Grand Tour will be shot in July... in Sith Efrica! Small world Maybe there'll be car-jacking hi-jinks after all.

The BBC said that they wanted to stick to the existing format as closely as possible, for this series anyway, because they felt it would be too much change to have both new presenters and a new format at the same time.

I know what they said. I was speculating that it might just be spin

The corporation has to defend against the use of "canned laughter" too: https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...d-laughter
Putting the Sun's obvious agenda against the show aside for a mo: The beeb claiming this was done the same way as in previous series is as maybe, but saying that all the laughter is "from the studio audience" does not exactly preclude the laughter being moved around in the soundtrack or 'tweaked' in volume does it?!

Jeremy Vine, 'Points of View' - “Out of the hundreds of messages we received, in what must be a Points of View personal best, positive feedback on the programme was in very short supply...”.

I wonder if all this aleged fawning of Leblanc would have happened had he not been in friends; or would people think him a dull American?

The dude with the beared look like he could be better.

you mean Eddie Jordan?
