Spun off from Top Gear I understand.

Must admit I think some of the presenters on Top Gear believe they are doing a comedy show (badly).

Well they're certainly doing an entertainment show rather than just a car show. My whole family watch Top Gear and other than me none of them have the slightest interest in cars. I suspect the same is true for lots of other viewers too so they're doing something right (for now).

I enjoy Fifth Gear. I look forward more to Top Gear, but Fifth Gear seems to be finding its feet and own identity and getting better with each series. Peter
