New co host of Top Gear


Actually great news. Always comes across really well in interviews and can see him adding a bit of charm and cheekiness to the show

It's a random one but I can definitely see it working. He's a laid-back guy with a good sense of humour and should have some good banter with Chris Evans. Nice addition.

Now he just needs to learn words like...
petrol (gasoline)
bonnet (hood)
boot (trunk)
lorry (truck)
gearbox (transmission)
spanner (wrench)

and how to pronounce...
Jag-yua (not Jag-war)
Niss-un (not Nee-sawn)
Peur-zsho (not Poo-joe)
Coupay (not Coop)
Pree-us (not Pry-us)
Zed (not Zee)

I hate the British so much.

reply

One of the best things about Top Gear UK is/was its "Britishness" (aside from perhaps Hamster's amusing obsession with American muscle cars which don't corner for sh*t). The US and Aussie versions suck compared to the magic of Jezza/Hamster/Slow ;-)

Kill yourself.

hows the wife?

reply

No he doesn't. It's fine, that means he's bringing his own personality.
