I am going off the dead end cul-de-sac storylines of Lost and switching to Heroes.
Don't upset me for I may have a hidden power. (The power to eat pies)

no, quality programme, you're getting confused with gardeners world. Foyles War is cerebral, but not as much as Morse, which was the ultimate in cerebral viewing.
ChuckleVision - compulsive viewing!!!!!

Top Gear is okay as light entertainment. As far as getting any info about cars is concerned, forget it. Once it was so cutting edge that Toyota refused to let them test drive their new cars after they severely criticised one model, now its about high speed supercars which are quite frankly boring and silly stunts. Entertaining? yes, informative? no.

I couldn't give a toss about cars but top gear is fun, whne they made limos at the end of the last series was hilarious.

I agree with Darrell! Top gear is brilliant, I don't really care about the info of cars but the Challenges they do every week are top notch!

I do care about cars, and there was a time when anyone looking to buy a car used Top Gear both on TV and magazine as a decent guide for making comparatives, say between an Audi A6 and a 5 Series BMW. They'd do the normal skidding tyres stress testing (and Tiff Needell was the best driver at making them go sideways) before giving sound advice about things like the comparative Tiptronic gearboxes etc. I remember when they compared the Alfa 166 and the Rover 75, the Rover got a right slating, yet today I see far more Rover 75s on the road than Alfa 166, maybe UK drivers do really like traditional wood and leather. That feature on the limos they made could have been good if it wasn't such an obvious set-up, like those celebs weren't in on it too, poor old Lemar tried to act annoyed but wasnt very good at it. Like the caravanning feature they did once, which was good until they obviously staged a prang at a petrol station which damaged the van, and then "accidently" set light to it at the campsite. They did a sketch on kitcar building, which totally missed the whole point of kitcar building and was quite rightly savaged by kitcar builders, it was so poorly staged including the Jeremy Clarkson "Oooooh I've put the seat in back to front!!!" That was very poor.

I'm not saying its bad now, its a jolly good comedy at times, but its light and fluffy. I've loved these cars since they came out in 1983, and there's only about 10 left now, and one of them is mine!! all mine!!!  |

the cool wall gives opinions on cars but not in depth, was watching the best of top gear the other week and they showed when they took the topless espace through arc's car wash and set it on fire. The drive around america with them graffiting on their cars and them getting chased away was f**k**g hilarious. Country and western is rubbish!

re. LOST ... ever since The Hobbit said on Parkinson that "they are stretching it from the original 3 seasons to 9 in order to make more money" ... I've "lost" interest.

You see if you take a topless car through a car wash, everything just gets wet, things don't explode or set on fire. I had a girlfriend once who went through a carwash on the bonnet of my Spitfire, neither girlfriend or car or carwash was harmed in any way - but that wouldn't make good television. Country and Western is rubbish. |
