Couldn’t agree more.

His contribution to TG seems to be shouting rather than anything and whilst I can just about tolerate the show now, (I do like CH,) I often mute Maguinnes, he just grates and invariably has nothing remotely sensible or interesting to say. He strikes me as being a little dumb.

Looking at his wife and his job, I'd happily be dumb....

I think the relationship between Paddy and Freddie makes Top Gear, and I am from east of the Pennines and it hurts saying that....

Freddie annoys me, the constant digs trying to be funny are wearing old quick... I have noticed that he has shut up a little in recent episodes.

I dont mind Paddy, i did wonder if he could handle a car... and thats kinda been confirmed now

In all fairness tho, the lambo was supposed to be a right handful of a car to drive!

For me being an car internet kid, Chris Harris is the best on the team for car reviews, (going to get shot down here) and i actually to a degree miss Chris Evans, his issue was he was trying to hard to be like clarkson.... But at least he had a strong car loving history.

It would be easier to watch if they were better at reading an autocue as they werent reading an autocue.

But both Freddie and Paddy seem to be there to destroy as many cars as they can.

TG these days seems so scripted and unnatural.

Mostly down to the presenters I feel.

The wife is completely lost on me, wrong equipment.

Not sure they have a relationship other than mockery and it’s just not funny.
