How overdue is that? Still will be good though

Another case of blink and you'll miss them though?

the only way this news could get any better is if they increase the budget and the episode run

What about the hundreds of thousands of emails about how suckful the last series was?

The last series was just repetitive drivel. It was far too dumbed down. It has too much about "torques" and driving sideways to show the cars are fast. If it wasn't so dumb it would be much better.

KidChameleon, I'm right with you there. Grown men and experienced motoring journalists at that, saying "it's got x number of torques" just offends a) the English language, and b) any person half interested in cars, which would be most of the viewers...?

5th gear is very much underrated IMO and they actually have presenters who can drive fast, not just hooning around on an airfield until their woeful driving talent runs out and they have to resort to doing donuts. (Yes, I'm talking to you Clarkson)

There, I feel all better now!

I don't watch Top Gear for quality road tests or accurate technical info, it's not what TopGear is about these days, but I still love it.

Was... it seems FIVE have pulled the plug.

I wouldn't mind if it wasn't, HD is just another bouns on top of something near flawless already.

I must check if my plasma has localised adaptive brightness for Hammond's teeth.

Good point - talk about burn-in...
