did anybody catch this?

I have seen the first 20 mins or so and will continue watching when I get home as my job has got in the way!!!

Same format, same studio, Charlie Cox is Clarkson, I think the professional driver (and funnily enough the shorter guy,) is Hammond and `Wozza` is James May, same jokey presenting style but somehow a little more excited and blokey,

reviews so far are the new Lamborghini, Wozza gets in and bounces it off the rev limiter cold, messing around in some 4X4 soft roaders which Wozza claims are for driving over ice cream, the news which of course was all news from down under, but interesting, I stopped short of the Porsche review
 
Looks good - will have to download it and run it on the TV at home :)
 
Quite amusing, rather than try and change anything they went for the entire format..including the the "Some say...." opener for Aussie Stig....

The track there has "Clarkson curve"
 
place your guess on who the aussie stig is then....

im starting with Craig Lowndes

might be worth keeping an update on TG OZ as they keep making digs at TG UK, TG UK will then reply next time its on and if you have not seen TG OZ you wont know what the joke is about,

Australian Top Gear

Hey guys,

Australia made a Top Gear, sadly very very poorly done
and very disappointing....

Had high hopes for the show :(

Now the UK version is not televised anymore :(

ARGH so annoying!!!

It seemed like a good idea at the time but no doubt it is another Yobo festival.
 
I can only imagine, having lived there for 18 years and seen some of the drivel that was passed off as car related television shows, what is it like.

Yep, will spend my time counting blades of grass before even bothering to check to see if I am right!
 
I seems to remember hearing somewhere they have done an American version, too???



www.topgear.com will give you a good TG UK fix!

Of you course, you could always move to the UK :D ;)
