Top Gear Returns To Our Screens On 8 May, But Do You Care?
Speaking with chef James Martin on BBC’s Saturday Kitchen, Chris Evans this weekend revealed that the first episode of the next Top Gear series will start on “Sunday May the 5th.” Calendar enthusiasts will know the 5th is actually a Thursday in 2016, so presumably that means it’ll actually start on the 8th.
He also mentioned that filming has started, and that the crew will be filming in the US in January. He said nothing about his potential co-stars - a subject of rampant speculation - but Evans has recently hinted that he may not have co-presenters at all.
The big question is, do you actually care? From what we’ve seen, amongst CTzens, interest in this revamped Top Gear is incredibly low, mostly due to the absence of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. And as most of you should know by now, following Clarkson’s contract ending after a fracas with a Top Gear producer, the trio is off to Amazon Prime to front a show which we’re sure most of you will be watching.
So, do you care about Top Gear any more? Will you be watching in May? Let us know in the poll below!
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I do just so I can see what they are up to…..I’m 100% sure that I’m not gonna like it tho :(
No way, no how. I doubt it’ll be able to live up to the TG orangutan, Captain Slow, and Hamster.
i’ll definitely have to check it out to see what it’s all about
I think it’ll be refreshing for Top Gear as a show. And we also get to watch the three lads cocking around on another show, we now have 2 car TV shows to watch!
Never seen Evans do power slides and shout Power! And that is why I am not watching. The UK is celebrating mediocrity with this Joker.
I don’t care anymore AT ALL. I’m excited for the new show Hammond,May, and Clarkson are going to host on Amazon Prime.I’m getting Amazon Prime just for that.
Since I’m not a raging fanboy, I’ll give it a shot.
I’ll watch the first episode or two to see what it’s like. If they’re trying to make an informative motoring program that isn’t dreary I’ll watch
.
Aw crap, accidentally voted yes. My bad, everyone.
I’ll watch it. If it’s good who cares who the hosts are.
Exactly, like top gear, wheeler dealers, fast n loud are all good programs I’m just not going to compare it to old new top gear and just to another car show
