Well tonights was a lot better, Chris seems to be taking more of a back role with MLB doing most of the links and studio stuff. The rallycross thing still takes to long but the rest was pretty good. Both Chris Harris (F12 TDF) and Rory Reid (Focus ST) did good pieces with the right balance of entertainment and information.

Totally agree, it would appear CE has stepped back and also listened to the criticism of him shouting so much.

The Star in the Car thing still needs work, the little guy on there was an absolute T!T.

Both CH and RR were very good, SS was bearable too and the BB and Matt LB London article was very good.

Overall better and I still really like Chris Harris, he's one of us.

So I picked the wrong night to not bother! Watched Hail Caesar (the new Coen brothers film) instead. TG tonight, perhaps.

Not seen Episode 3 yet - but was fortunate to get tickets to Episode 4 - and was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience
I think the criticism has been taken on board and the show is moving in the right direction

CH is one of us a true petrol head but fluffed his lines so many times and as for dear old Eddie my lord .....

Off today to see the recording of what I think is the last in the current series. I gave up watching TG years ago but I find the new series better and more watchable, it will be interesting to see how today goes.

After the week before last actually being quite good, last Sundays was not so I am afraid for me.

Too many presenters, don't like Sabine, or Eddie. Rory and Chris Harris are great, and Ginger, well, you already know my thoughts and MLB is starting to become droll.

I suppose the acid test will be the Clarkson attempt and then we will be able to gauge it then.

I wonder if the plan is to bring in known names for the first series while gradually introducing more journalistic style presenters to get the audience used to them then just have the big names doing the pre recorded segments
