Anyone else think this show is utter shite ?

The two presenters have zero personality. They're barely old enough to have driving licences. They're uninteresting, have fuck-all knowledge about cars, and look & sound like reject childrens presenters. The only character is Tiff and he's ex Top Gear. Their camera shots are all copied from Top Gear. Programme's flat and lifeless compared to Top Gear.

Time to turn the TV off and watch Top Gear clips on u-tube...

I'm not sure about Tim Shaw, but the other presenter Tom Ford is pretty good, he still works for Top Gear magazine doing reviews/features there.

Fifth gear is a poor man's top gear.

Top gear wins because I don't give a shit about new clio's.

fifth gear is crap but it's better than top gear because it doesnt have clarkson and hammond involved.

But James May <3

Fifth Gear is awful.

I dont want to see the new clio or what the new bargain car is. I want to see Clarkson twatting about in a car I will probabaly never own!

If you want to buy a Aston, watch TG.
If you want to buy a 2006 Volvo, watch FG.

:) I like seeing things go wrong, so I watch TG :D

Fifth gear does so a bit of safety stuff that is interesting, but they don't do it so often.
On Top Gear, it would be more entertaining, but would end up being scripted with comedy, which looses its central message.

But yeah, the rest of the show is somewhat dull and uninteresting.

I hate Tiff Needell. I can't stand his intonation. Every line he says ends in the same downwards pitch. It's extremely annoying :/
