The bags under Wilman's eyes align perfectly with his eyebrows 🤣

I'm sure I can speak for the many millions who have been entertained by the trio and all those who spent their time and energy over the last 22 years to bring the shows to us a huge "THANK YOU!"

[dominicsangeet]

Thank you Andy Wilman for sticking with the trio throughout the last 2 decades, you deserve a lot of the credits for keeping them safely together.

I haven’t even had the opportunity to watch the final and I’m already mourning the three’s retirement. I’ll miss them and will constantly watch past episodes. They are my all time favorite presenters.

So nice to hear Andy Wilman! The fourth part of the teio.
Thx Andy for everything you have accomplished with the whole team!

If you start to think 'it's health and safety gone mad' then you're getting way to close to hurting yourself and others - or worse.

Hope they went out on a high note. I'd have kept watching forever, but to be honest they'd pretty much run out of fresh ideas. It was basically variations on previous work - still amusing but getting a bit old. Looking forward to their new projects - I'm sure we'll see them around.

Andy the mastermind behind the trio for oh so long- the show will be missed, one for the road is super + thanks very much

fun fact, he is the executive producer of Clarksons Farm

As a lifelong car nut, race car driver, motorcycle rider, and owner of a "monster" truck I drove from NYC to South America in the 1970s, I feel that Top Gear somehow assembled the world's three biggest entitled arseholes to ruin what could have been a great car show that was unwatchable due to the hosts. Good Riddance.

Times Radio's obsession with Top Gear is weirdly laddish. Are we really getting teary over the boys doing their own stunts? Were these really the greatest TV moments of the last twenty years? These guys seem to be having a midlife crisis.
