Does Top Gear need one more presenter?
I do belive so.. 3 presenter to fill one hour is just too little..
but CAN they bring inn one more presenter.. no ..
there`s the problem..

come on .. lets discuss

no, they are PERFECT as they are. people will think that they are copying FG then. What would they do with a new presenter?? it would be a disaster.

vanMould · November 2nd, 2005, 10:17 PM

I could imagine Tom Ford on the crew, but not together with James. They're just to much like each other...

jensked · November 2nd, 2005, 10:49 PM

NO! It seems just perfect like that. And remember they also have The Stig !

I'm waiting for the day when Suzi Perry goes on Top Gear. She already does Moto GP comentary from the Pit Lane for the BBC.
She also does the Gadget show on Five, just before Fifth Gear coincidentally.

The other 3 would be Sooo well behaved for that episode. images/smilies/smile.gif

Don't know about her being a presenter though, but as a guest, she'd be great.

It's firing perfectly at the moment.

The challenges and everything seem to work perfectly and there's a damn good dynamic between the three.

urch, I used the word dynamic.

(I want sabine to do a lap in the liana like, or to take it round the ring. Actually that might be a good segment - taking shit cars round the ring)

Viper007Bond · November 3rd, 2005, 12:45 AM

I think it's perfect how it is. I think more would be a crowd and loose the "guys talkin at the pub about what they think of the car" feel and less would be too few.

If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Leave it as is - it's perfect.

C53A_4G63T · November 3rd, 2005, 03:08 AM

Too many people is a bad thing. On Final Gear, i only like to watch the fat man, hes funny. The others bore me. WHich is why i like Top Gear more.

There is no need for another presenter.

We need to see MORE JAMES MAY, cos I think he's great images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Hammond is ok but he needs to stop latching onto Jeremys jokes in the news and making them unfunny..

Agreed on both.

I think it would be cool if they brought in Sabina once in a while.

the problem is ... that it is "broken" .. last seson JC, RH and JM works so hard that as a result .. this new seson is mutch shorter.. .. 3 presenter dooing ca 20 episodes a year is just to little...

BigJ · November 3rd, 2005, 05:40 AM

Yeah, but if they didn't do 230948 other side projects, then it wouldnt be a problem.

*sigh* the short season isn't to give JC, RH, and JM a break - they're not the ones doing the really hard work and long hours - it's the production staff and all those behind the scenes that need a break - having more hosts won't reduce their workload one little bit.

Ultra_Kool_Dude · November 3rd, 2005, 06:06 AM

One thing Top Gear could benefit from is an occasional "guest host". It would be interesting to get Rowan Atkinson to test his favorite car for example.

I remember they tried it once with a Brit (I forget his name), with the 575 and Aston, and it worked well. They also did it when they were arguing about the greatest car in the world.

I agree. The section they did with what'shisname with the 575 and Aston was great. Getting someone like Jay Kay or Atkinson to come on and do one of them would be fantastic to watch.
