This fast-paced and stunt-filled motor show tests whether cars, both mundane and extraordinary, live up to their manufacturers' claims; the long-running show travels to locations around the world, performing extreme stunts and challenges to see what the featured cars are capable of doing; celebrity guests appear on some episodes to help test the vehicles; things don't always go as planned, though, with broken bones and mechanical mishaps sometimes part of the experiments; Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May hosted the show for more than a decade before giving way to a new crew in 2016, including Chris Harris, Paddy McGuinness and Freddie Flintoff.

Stuart Heritage Guardian So I'm sorry, M LeB, but it's bloody hard to watch without thinking about what was before. Top Gear has just too much baggage in its trunk. Mar 22, 2019 Full Review Ed Power Daily Telegraph (UK) With Evans in charge, Top Gear had sweated panic from every nozzle. Here, in contrast, the laid-back spirit of LeBlanc's Friends character Joey Tribbiani held sway. Rated: 4/5 Mar 22, 2019 Full Review Neil Briscoe Irish Times On the basis of this first episode, and with the caveat that all such things need time to bed in and gel together, the smaller, lighter Top Gear may just have snuck ahead of the bloated Grand Tour. Mar 22, 2019 Full Review Ally Ross The Sun (UK) The devotion to the classic Clarkson formula, though, is so overwhelming that this tribute show version of Top Gear can still attract decent guests (James McAvoy). Rated: 3/5 Mar 22, 2019 Full Review Tom Eames Digital Spy The weak link of 2016 has gone in the shape of Chris Evans, and the best three presenters have been elevated to an equal status: Chris Harris, Rory Reid and Matt LeBlanc. And it's worked wonders. Mar 22, 2019 Full Review David Butcher Radio Times The fact that Chris Evans is no longer involved is bound to help. For all his brilliance as a broadcaster, Evans never felt right in Top Gear mode. Mar 22, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It was boring, and the filling that I get all the episode 1 is that the new 3 guys are trying hard to mimic the original crew. The show could be more interesting if the BBC allows the new 3 to be them, and stop mimicking the original crew. Let me put it this way: There was no originality, and the show look like a “clone” with fakes “clones”. I didn't finished it, I changed the channel 25 minutes before it ended, it was really boring, and I did try hard to keep watching it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
