bawan 0 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Anyone watching it? In Kurdistan My country of birth, even though they are just cutting through you can see the sights, and just how beautiful the country is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Watching it now. 20 minutes in and I'm gagging on the contrivance. The whole Iraq airfield with a helicopter overhead was distinctly safe, despite the dangerous music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinofbeans 91 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 absolute shite. some of the mopst contrived bollocks on tv. story goes, get 3 cars have them all part break down, then tart them up and repair them. do something patronising ( repeat 90+ times) and thats it.

ewerk 30160 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 So I see they've decided to do away with any attempt humour or chemistry. Not that I liked the last lot but this was just dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizza 105 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Why was he trying to sound like Clarkson in the intro voice over? just awful. I lasted until he started introducing some randoms from his local takeaway. Just typical ME! ME! ME! bullshit from that ginger prick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Wasn't great , but then neither was the old one in recent times, I got sick of the massively scripted challenge stuff seasons ago, it just isn't entertaining, I'd rather just watch reviews on cars. Bad first episode though, shouldn't have tried to copy the dialog and such of the previous presenters, no need (fwiw I don't think the Amazon effort from Clarkson and Co will be much good either) Agree with this tbh, it was clunky and they seemed awkward together (I know it's the first episode but still they even seemed fairly awkward just on their own). They should have really stepped out and done it a different way but they seemed to try and mimic some parts while making others different and it was just fairly clunky. How uncomfortable was the star in the car bit? Especially when they introduced each other . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
