It was quite good a couple of series ago but lately has seemed more like the jolly japes of a trio of ex-public schoolboys. I perhaps naively thought it was a programme about cars but the cars seem to be a side issue compared to the infantile antics of Clarkson, Hammond and May.
There's far too much emphasis in Top Gear on top speed and 0-60 times and when you hear and read about the number of fatal accidents involving young drivers they should act a bit more responsibly in this area.
What TV needs is a decent programme looking at cars seriously - new models, designs, new motoring thechnology, concept cars, fuel economy, etc. Just something a bit more down to earth and in tune with the average viewer's motoring requirements.
