Just been watching it.

I have to say that I thought it was really good!

The interview was a bit of a nothing and felt very forced but I really enjoyed it.

I thought it would be terrible but it felt like Top Gear used to be!

Really worth a watch. I think the presenters will definitely grow into the show.

Also, impressed that they have an actual driver as one of the presenters.

Meh.
You've got someone who's been to the moon and back, and the most interesting you can get them to tell you is that they once drove a Sprite?

That's what I thought. The interview was a bit rubbish.

The rest of the show was good though.

Agreed. The interview was odd. All they did was list cars. He’s worth more than that.

It was odd seeing things explained - stuff we take for granted. The Stig, what the test track was for. Odd. May watch again next week though.

I thought this was common with the internationalised versions after I heard Sabine Schmitz was one of the presenters for the German version, but Tanner does have some pretty legit cred as a racer

I've been watching them online elsewhere, and some of the stuff in season 2 is pretty good. It makes a refreshing change when they do some more reasonably priced cars instead of the uber pricey ones
