The guy they really need to add is Grant Denyer!
He is an ex-racing driver and I think he has a perfect personality for this show!
What do you guys think?

If you really want to find someone to blame for TGA’s slightly lumpy first season, blame the scriptwriter. Between Cox’s unconvincing rant at the end of the season, Warren’s hammy performances in ‘What Were They Thinking’ and Pizzati being forced to use ‘grouse’ as verbal punctuation, it’s really the scriptwriter that should have been given the boot and not Cox.

That said, Morrison should be a good addition … provided the scripts don’t totally suck this time around.

The UK edition of Top Gear on at the moment, seem to be from 2003. Why can’t we see the latest.
The first Australian one was rubbish. They had no compatibility. Every thing they tried to do seemed false. If they don’t do better this time I am afraid that it will be the last one changing channels please turn off the lights

Of course season 2 will be better than the first.

Top Gear UK are now up to season 11. I have the episodes from the 4th season onwards. There is a marked difference in the rapport (plus no more fat guy who was replaced by James) and quality of the show.

The trouble with the Aussie series 1 is we were comparing it against series 9 UK. Completely unfair.

Morrison will be a great addition!

I hope season 2 will be better than season 1.

Again I will watch a couple of episodes until the bogan attitude makes me cringe…

Well Alex I agree with Mr Cox.Falcon suits me to the ground so much so that I’ve bought another one.

Don’t think I’ll bother visiting this site anymore as my Prius comments have been moderated out of existence.So much for free thought!

Seems people can disrepect our local product until the cows come home with no repercussions yet discuss alternatives to the Prius hybrid and that’s what happens.

I am with u Charlie and look forward to the new series.

Shame really, Cox was the only good presenter of the bunch. Warren Brown & Steve Pizzati were/are both horrible in the show.
The addition of James Morrison will make no difference cos he’ll be the only guy that won’t be annoying.
Salesman is right, they should replace Warran for Eric Banner.
