I’m watching channel Dave here in the U.K. and they are repeating an episode of Top Gear and Clarkson is talking with Evans who is the star in a Reasonably Priced Car (2008 Daewoo Lacetti) his time was 1:48.1.
Sorry my pictures were taken by my Blackberry from my bedroom TV.
I wonder if Chris will have Jeremy as a guest on TG or if Jeremy will have Chris as a guest on GT.

Whenever I see Chris Evans, I can only think of two things: 1) his Spitting Image puppet. 2) How badly I want to punch his face.

Totally. He’s a dick.
Chris might know about cars and love Ferraris but I can see a lot of people put off TG before it even starts.
Sabine has a big following and I’d of loved her to of been on TG hosting during the Clarkson, May and Hammond years. Matt is a new face to the TG scene but has motoring credentials, a love of cars and is a good guy.

My sole knowledge of Chris Evans is from his appearances on old Top Gear and I don’t like him.

No, see, that isn’t actually Chris Evans. It’s a puppet made to look like him. Lots of people make that mistake.

What? *takes off glasses and cleans them*
I ... can’t tell the difference.
One’s rubbery and annoying and the other is a puppet?

I’m definitely put off. I really think I’d like to watch Sabine and everyone else, but I’ll probably end up just watching clips, because even one episode would be more than I've ever willingly exposed myself to Chris Evans.

Wait.... Did you say Blackberry? That's some vintage shit right there.

After hearing about how much of a baby he was during the first filming, I have zero interest in watching the show. I think someone needs to tell him he isn’t an A level movie star, he’s some radio jockey no one outside of the UK has heard of.

I always pictured him as Chicken Little.

He used to be on TV a lot when I was younger. He’s had a morning TV show called The Big Breakfast back in the 90s and a late evening TV show called TFI Friday which the only thing I truly remember is Kylie Minogue kissing Geri Halliwell.
Chris is an arrogant, obnoxious pleb with delusions of self importance. Or at least that’s how I remember him. He’s been doing a radio show for sometime now but I don’t listen to him.

I happen to like my Blackberry Classic Q20. I’ve had it a year and really enjoy it as a follow on from my trusty Blackberry 9800 and 9810 Torchs. I would like a Blackberry Priv though.

I was just being an ass, lol. I have longed for BB’s keyboards ever since begrudgingly switching to Android several years ago from my BB Tour. Ahh, those were the days. “Apps” they said. “They’re fun”, they said. You know? They were right, but I still miss that sweetass keyboard.

I know. Lol.
I usually hear it from Apple people though.
I love the full keyboard with trackpad and touchscreen.
I hate only touchscreen on phones. There is no tactile feel of a key and whenever I tried to send a text from a friend’s Apple or something I spent more time trying to press delete as my fingers would press a letter either side of the one I wanted to press. I miss the slide action of my Torch which is why I want a Priv. But the new Blackberrys are Android now so don’t know how I’d get on with them.
I don’t do games and the apps I use are translator, maps/navigation, forums an news sites. So I’m not missing the whole latest game craze for mobiles stuff.

I mean you could be describing Clarkson so I’ll still give the show a chance. The best Top Gear used to be when Jeremy was having the worst time.

The difference is Clarkson knew that’s how he was being perceived and so ‘hammed it up’ for the entertainment value. But watch any of his other shows that he’s done about car history, World War 2 (the history of the Medal of Valour, Inventions that changed the war, etc...), etc... and he’s a very intelligent man who’s passionate about telling people. Try watching him on Qi.

QI is some of the best television ever created.

So true. It’s educational, informative and fun. Which is how learning should be. There is a new series made by the ‘Qi elves’ on BBC iPlayer which is also good.
