Anyone else watching it? Compared to top gear its auwful! The presenters apart from vikki are pants and with lines like "join us in part 2 for more stuff" how can you resist but stay tuned
Fifth gear
- Thread starter silvermain
- Start date
So have they scrapped Top Gear completely now 
No they start filming again in January (including Hamster!! Yippee!!)
I watch at least 1 episode of Top Gear a day, they're on UKTV Gold.
As for the Stig. He has to be a formula 1 driver, or ex driver, because there is an episode where he drives a Renualt formula 1 car round the track. Now these cars are woth in excess of £1million, and they don't let just anybody drive them!!

There have been 2 stigs, teh first was a F1 test driver(I forget his name) but he was replaced when it came out. I don't think anyone knows who teh current one is outside Topgear/BBC. My money too is on him being someone from F1/F3000 or something similar. Although the lap in the F1 car was quite ragged so I don't reckon he was that familiar with it. He does seem very comfortable in closed cars so maybe touring cars or something like that(Le mans style stuff).
It will be good to get TG back, teh balance between the three presenters is spot on and they can bounce stuff off each other so well it keeps you hooked. Add to that some of the crazy stuff they do and its probably made itself the best motoring show evermade and will take some beating.(The episode with the boats was absolute class!)

talking of the hamster has anyone ever seen that braniac science thats on? richard hammond presents it and its funny as ****,they go round blowing stupid things up....just because they can,i'd recommend watching it
Brainiac is ace. I was watching an episode the other week where they were blowing up caravans. All the caravan detonators were fitted to the pockets of a snooker table, so every time a ball was potted a different caravan blew up.
That has got to be some of the funniest television i've ever seen!!
It says in one of the comments "My money is on Damon Hill" My Mum has said that all along, even before they got the new Stig, shes even more convinced now. I'm personally not to sure.
Its the cheap nasty version of top gear! Uhh its crap , they dont know what a car is they just read crap! They dont even have a stig !
Nooooo 
Ive dreamed about the stig and who he was , its like finding out about father chritmas all again,uhh sorry for you young readers i ment finding out that father christmas is a great man

regarding the stig, there was an interview a while back that said at one point they had a female stig!!!! Errrr was she bandaged up do you reckon 
Never watched Fifth Gear so dont know what its like. Missing Top Gear though. I used to like the races clarkson vs hamster & James. The one with James flying made me laugh! The stig - who knows and who cares just as long as he or she does a good job then im not bothered.
