The Grand Tour

[Southie]

If you enjoyed top gear you'll enjoy it, more money thrown at it than the BBC but it's basically the same.

I enjoyed it, that is all.

Wonder if it's on kodi

Just watched it and enjoyed it too. I think the old format needed mixing up a little bit after so many years, so I'm glad the fact its no longer 'Top Gear' has forced some changes. Looking forward to the next episode now.

[Stuart]

Wonder if it's on kodi

Yes, since about 9am :)

clearly big big budget fun there, I enjoyed it, but then I enjoyed jezza top gear too. Didn't even watch one with ginger tosser running it lol

[Benn]

Sorry to be stupid, but what is kodi?

[totalnova]

Kodi, is program than you can get a few different ways, I have it on my dodgy sky box, but you can also get it on a hacked Amazon fire stick, plus I'm sure there are other ways

[turbojolt]

Kodi is brilliant if you don't like paying my to watch sports aswell

[Southie]

Sorry to be stupid, but what is kodi?
It was originally an Xbox player that over the years changed its name to xbmc then as more years went by the player was renamed again to Kodi.
Kodi in its own right is the legal part, it's all the add ons and streaming that gets a bit dodgy as plenty of 3rd party ones are available for streaming the latest movies, tv and sport from all over the world.

Nope!!!

[Andy]

This will be deleted soon.

[Southie]

Links dead lol

[ShawnAzzopardi]

shawn gets a shot across the bow..... It's one thing to mention kodi etc but it's another thing to direct link pirated stuff as per the rules ;)

[turbojolt]

Just watched it, enjoyed it alot great to see them back together. Feels like top gear but revamped, more money, more freedom and alot better content

I will be watching them weekly

[Southie]

Just like westworld in here, it appears the program is re-written lol

[totalnova]

I liked the show, but the content was definitely lacking, it was great to see three hyper cars do up against each other but other then that what else was on the show, they even said this week's episode is definitely a car show, but they still managed to waste 10 mins pretending to kill off 3 celebs. It's clearly been made for the American market imo

I'm sort of "happy" to lose 10-15mins to utter shite to keep the yanks paying for it. Think of it as the not free part of the free lunch :D

This really freaked me out to see my name and a post I didn't write.
Sorry for the link to the pirated stuff, but seeing as not many people have access to devices that they can watch the show on (me being one of them) I thought I'd offer a link.
My apologies, won't happen again.

[ShawnAzzopardi]

What were your opinions with episode 2? I found it a bit boring tbh.

I mean the Aston Martin Vulcan was gorgeous, don't get me wrong, but the whole spec ops training ground was a bit dull.

[Southie]

It was a bit more less car oriented but still a laugh to watch on a Sunday.

[Andy]

Only thewhitby one I have any minute desire to watch.purely for local scenery if nowt else.cant help but think the adventures of them three were done years ago and it was just same shit different day

[House]

Didn't think much of it if I'm honest, wasn't overly impressed with how they made a joke of a soldier (clarkson) being shot and blown up by a mine whilst attempting to exfill from a war zone.

It also seems all the humour has been Americanised, the "news" section is far too scripted, the jokes and banter too scripted. In short I'm glad I use Amazon Prime for other stuff cos I wouldn't have it just for this

[totalnova]

Well the second one was actually terrible in my opinion, it's just not a car show, please get back to actually road testing at least one actual road car per show, don't get me started on the special forces bit, some Of The worst TV I've ever seen and I don't think I'm overeating.
The old top gear had been going downhill for years but this show is actually terrible, I actually prefer the Chris Evans attempt that that was shit

[Stuart]

Why do you want to watch road tests? Almost anyone can goto any car dealer and get a test drive of something... even the more exotic stuff if you make some effort, which is more fun than watching someone do it for you on TV lol

It was a poor effort, but they did say last week that there would be minimal "car" content in this one, so atleast we were forewarned for once.

[totalnova]

I just want to see a car show, I don't even mind if they fuck around while testing cars, infact it's more entertaining when they do but what was served up on Friday was absolute shite in my opinion

[turbojolt]

Yer I really miss knowing the capacity of the boot in litres and what optional extras models have and how much they will cost..........NO.

[Stuart]

Which is why 5thgear was demoted to some History channel +3525784657846587 part 3

[paul james]

I thought it was an entertaining episode, perhaps having a few beers while watching helped!
There's so many well done car reviews and related content on youtube if that's what you want to see, but not so much big budget messing about with cars which is where this show comes in.

Reviewing everyday cars on tv now is fairly pointless, the worst a car can be now is average, not like years back when there was some real crap being made.

[totalnova]

Maybe I am in the minority here and don't get me wrong I couldn't give a fuck about a cars boot capacity, I want to know how well it goes sideways and if its faster then it's rivals, but if you think about it apart from seeing a 1.8 million pound track cars being abused for a few minutes the rest if the show was them attempting to complete a stupid course multiple times showing the same camera clips over and over and over, I like it when the show is funny, this was just rubbish imo, oh I forgot about the Two minutes of understeering Audi.....

[Southie]

If you think it's shit don't watch it lol

[totalnova]

If you think it's shit don't watch it lol
I don't plan on watching it anymore :thumb:

[Stuart]

If you think it's shit don't watch it lol

But what will people get angry and moan about instead?

[Southie]

But what will people get angry and moan about instead?
There's always brexit lol

[Benn]

I enjoyed ep3. Just for the look on Hammon's face while hooning up and down in the hellcat...

[Stuart]

Was very very good :)
Aside from the dead celeb bit, just kill that (no pun intended) off

[paul james]

Yeah I think we get the message now, no actual celebs in the show just the presenters from now on. Always thought that was the weakest part of Top Gear, it was ok when they had interesting and funny guests, but when it was some dull chump only there trying to flog their latest book or film it got boring.

[Southie]

I enjoyed the latest one, Hammond began to piss my off a little though in this one though lol

They should do a test track one against themselves in a decent car to see who's actually a better driver, that would fill the celebrity's slot ;)
