I confess, I'm involved in the motor trade, I have been around it all my life and I'm not really a car enthusiast as the novelty has worn off. I personally watch the show because it's light entertainment... but mainly because the wife loves it! In fact, she has been trying to get tickets for three years! When I get talking about cars with my lady customers, they will often say things like "I never miss Top Gear, but I don't know anything about cars". I strongly suspect that he show has a huge female following. If I were to take a guess as to why, I'd say that its because women can see a super car racing around an airfield, and appreciate a thing of beauty. And lets face it, the actual car segments are seldom more in-depth than that. The rest of the show is three witty guys dicking about. They may not have much sex appeal between them, but you'd love to have them as dinner guests! So if they include more silliness, the show may lose it's appeal to dedicated car enthusiasts, but in doing so, capture a far wider audience. Who knows? Hi Butterscotch,

TG wouldn’t be the same without those silly segments but they seem to be getting more and more. I think the show will have most appeal if it gets the balance right.

Not least the destruction of caravans. News segment gives some of the best laughs, and if I need to use the lavatory while the show is on, I'll probably go during the guest spot.

They'd have to be mad to get rid of The Stig. Yeah, I’m not sure if he’s gone – I am hoping that he’s still there but the other ‘character’ is complimentary.
