5th Gear
TG+: Hamster/May rapport, Stig
TG-: Clarkson, loudmouthed, tedious (despite love of S2Ks)
FG+: Tiff the legend, VBH the legendess, proper head to head tests at Anglesey.
FG-: Plato arrogance.
I quite like Tom Ford - he's like Clarkson was before the hair started thinning.
For information, Tom on FG writes for TG magazine - and is pretty good as a paper journo. He once drove an Arial Atom to the Arctic Circle in the middle of winter: overtook a lorry in a tunnel, hit black ice, spun 720 degrees, then recovered without dying. Respect (as did he the roads thereafter).

i always enjoy Tom Fords articles in Top Gear and Car,doesn't come across as funny on TV,
dont mind Plato, he does play the 'racing driver' angle quite a bit....
IIRC there was an episode of 'Good car, Bad car' with Jason Barlow and the bald short guy, dont remember his full name : Dominic littlewoody or something, anyways there was a young guy picking supercars chosen by Barlow and Baldy.
obv the Ferrari 360 and 996TT caught his attention, and as usual for the show he went into a ferrari dealership all mic'ed and camm'ed up with Baldy shouting instructions over the net,
really good to see the dealer's reaction to the guy and his gf, Baldy kept on at the poor guy to get the dealers to chuck in freebies,
asking for all sorts of shite, like leather handbags etc
the look on the dealer's face
went with the 360 though, and got a passenger lap with Damon Hill to boot!!!
the only good episode of a suckass show.......
