Chris Evans and New Top Gear

Love it or hate it, you can't ignore BBC Top Gear and its new incarnation has certainly provoked a huge reaction right from the start, culminating in Chris Evans's recent resignation after making a single series. The show has always had a very vocal fan base, many of whom have been very quick to criticise everything the new presenters do and had already written off the latest series as a failure before it even aired simply due to the absence of Jeremy Clarkson. I took a more open-minded approach and tried to watch it without letting my preconceptions of how it used to be influence my view too much, but I do feel Evans may have made the right decision as despite his best efforts he just didn't seem to gel with the show and wasn't the right man for the job.
