I have to say, I rather like Sabine Schmidt's necklace. I suspect she's the only person that should be allowed to wear it, though!

I've been around Silverstone GP circuit with her driving in her mates Porsche 956..she is bloody quick!

Mrs MLC and I are enjoying it too.

Especially since we've driven some of the cars. It 'brings it home' in what they say.

She's great company too, sharp as a tack and can kick all those boring baby brained females into touch!

Not watched it yet will tonight....I didn't bust a gut to see it last night as the week before bored me. Loved them the Aflac and Lambo but what they did with them just made me think the format was tired and they need to shake it up. The piece that Chris Harris did trying to thread the Affa in that gap went on and on and on...and the Lambo/Porsche challenge had then repeating challenges from the old Top Gear team....Just got very bored. Look forward to seeing the DB11 and reading above may keep me more interested.

I enjoyed the car content last night but the banter was simply slow and uncomfortable viewing.

I thought the banter was terrible. It was like they were trying to work without a script and didn't know what to say. Awkward silences and non funny comments.
It seemed to be all about MLB and CH and Rory was simply there for no purpose.
Thought the "star" section was equally awkward.
I won't be rushing to tune in next week.

Glad we felt the same Stewart! I hate watching TV which makes you feel awkward, imagine being in the audience! Aston bit was ok but the end result was painful, Golf GTI Clubsport was for me the best bit but again very contrived and painful with Rory screaming like a child.

The car bits are great i think , but for god sake sort out the slow , awkward over long studio sections . The guest part is painfull to watch . Get em on and get em off . It feels the same a GT . It s like they hav nt got enough car material and they are trying to fill time. If thats the case then cut the show down to 45 mins and edit out the dead air ....or here's a mad idea , review some cars!

Theres loads of cars that need reviewing but they never do...i like the bread and butter cars like the new VW Scirocco or BMW 3 series but it always seems to be expensive cars and theres only so much of them around
the star bit was cringe worthy, Tamzin felt like she didnt want to be there........MLB even landed her in it when he said that the reason "episodes" was at an end was because she didnt want to make anymore.....i cringed looking at her

Rory bloke's silly grin and totally scripted poor acting is annoying, the other two are starting to get there, but if only they could be original and not try so hard to be like the old lot...
