Comments on: 60 Minutes gives Top Gear a free kick http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2008/11/60-minutes-gives-top-gear-a-free-kick.html Australia's leading TV blog Sun, 12 Feb 2012 23:46:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Stefania http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2008/11/60-minutes-gives-top-gear-a-free-kick.html/comment-page-1#comment-39963 Stefania Mon, 24 Nov 2008 07:25:46 +0000 http://www.tvtonight.com.au/?p=17617#comment-39963 The original Top Gear boys ( and when I say original I mean Clarkson, Hammond and May) did a rather brilliant story on 60 minutes, no thanks to the interviewer and editing which a lot to be answered. And personally I found it wonderful that there was no mention of Australian Top Gear, in all honestly it is a rather poor copy of the BBC version, and the dynamic between the hosts is all wrong...come on!! Argh one annoying thing though is that The Top Gear world tour isn't coming to Melbourne it's going to Sydney, so anyone feel like buying me a ticket for a plane? I'll fly with anyone but...you know who. Ha. Bye, and lots of love Top Gear boys... Stef!!

It was a good segment but something was missing, they didn't get an exclusive interview with the Stig!

Quite an interesting move since the original TG was walloping AusIdol in the ratings. I usually clear of 60 minutes but shall be DVR'ing and FF'ing through to that segment. And Cameron Williams being given some credibility? For an ex Cleo centrefold (under a pseudonym) and after his controversial depature from Fox Sports? Well it could have been worse. It could have been the cheesy weather guy from Today. Top Gear lads on 60 minutes vs the Australia Idol finale. Quite an interesting move since the original TG was walloping AusIdol in the ratings.
