    It'll just be fucking morons in a production company having no idea what is going on around them.

    Yep.

    It's also feasible that all Chris Evans would have known about it was "we're doing a bit with Matt and a Rally driver in central London" (which sounds rubbish by the way) if he wasn't directly involved.

    What do 'these images' look like? A guy doing some manoeuvres with a war memorial in shot?

    Was Evans taking the piss out of Clarkson with his intro voiceover thing?

    Pretty sure they told the audience to find that catering joke hilarious too.

    The rest of the show needs to be good because Evans may make it unwatchab;e for me.

    Or at least make it something I record and pick which bits I watch carefully, which would be a shame.

    It's just awful.

    Not that it wasn't before, but at least it was it's own type of awful, rather than this bizarre masquerade.

    As if you'd nail the breaks at 100mph with a $100k car (or whatever it is) right on your arse.

    LeBlanc has been significantly better than Evans so far, but then so would a jug full of acid to the face so I'm not sure if that's saying much.

    Ramsay and Eisenberg are a really strange pair.

    I thought the two would at least know each other.

    Assuming this is going to be how they do it regularly (which is fine, changing it up makes sense) then you would have thought getting people who know each other would make more sense, yes.

    I don't think so, he's trying to copy the winning formula and is failing miserably.

    I actually don't mind the new version of Star In A.... but I could do without Chris Evans shouting for applause when a car goes through a fucking puddle.

    It's a little long, especially with Evans taking it.

    I reckon you could jog round the course faster than Eisenberg did his lap.

    Didn't they get them because the original two pulled out? Brad Pitt and someone wasn't it?

    Just meant to be Brad but they thought Eisenberg and Ramsay would be enough to cover.

    I wish they'd have just totally changed the formula and did something totally different. The fact that the other one will be roughly the same but a million times better is even more awkward.

    Seen a few people posting pictures in response along these lines:



    EDIT:
    Back to the show. After a film about Chris Evans driving around wildly and trying to avoid a laser gun, we’re now being treated to a film about Matt LeBlanc driving around wildly and trying to avoid a photographer. It’s the same idea, which seems like a huge mistake for a first episode.

    Tomorrow: a film about Chris Evans and Matt LeBlanc driving around wildly and trying to avoid reviews.
