National Television Awards: message to all TG fans

Greetings. This is a quick message as we’re busy filming for the Christmas series, and I’ll be back with more about that later, but in the meantime I’d like to deal with a bit of housekeeping.

You may have heard of the National Television Awards, which is a big glittery do on ITV, with the winners decided by public vote, and we’ve won one of their gongs a few times. Well, the voting has started for the 2011 Awards, and it’s come to my attention that everyone nominated is promoting themselves like buggery at every opportunity. Loose Women are doing it, Piers Morgan, all sorts. “Vote for me,” “No, vote for me” etc.

Well, obviously at Top Gear we are clearly above such vulgar practices. We believe the quality of the content should speak for itself, and to go around touting for votes is just not British. So please don’t go immediately to the link below, don’t click on the NTA website, don’t search for our programme and don’t vote for it. And please don’t tell all your friends, family or anyone else you’ve ever met to do the same. That just wouldn’t be the done thing. Thank you.

I was a huge fan of this show, and followed every season until I viewed the American holiday show. What a load of crap, I wish that you could have kept this show about cars and leave the political bias out. I looked forward to every episode and was really excited when I discovered that the guys were coming over, only to find out that it was a bias America bashing,with little to do with cars. There were endless things that could have made for an awesome episode yet we get this. What about the classic muscle cars, route66, drag racing ect,,,,nope got none of that, just a poorly directed political propaganda film…what a shame from such a talented team.

I think you should salvage Top Gear Jag and fish out Black Stig.

Is this a vote for the Stig in his own right or for the tailpipe that outed himself and drew the ire of your fans, even those of us from across the pond. I hear tell that not even his fat, American cousin is speaking to him right now.

Also, for every “usa1″ there is another one of us who absolutely loved your American vacation show. Apparently, there are quite a few people who love it when you take the piss at other people’s expense, but get their dangly bits in a twist when you get close to home. I live in the South, and while not everyone here is like that, that episode was certainly some fine television. It was like Louis Theroux in overdrive with the hammer down…. Nice job. Now, I’d better go before “usa1″ goes’n'gets tha boys. Cheers!
