No, what happened was... Jeremy left top gear few years ago, so tiff was alone together with vicki and a few others. Then in ~2000-2001, BBC put top gear on hiatus. Shortly after, Channel 5 hired the top gear production team to create the show known as 5th Gear. In 2002, Jeremy returned to BBC for the new and improved Top Gear.

Well we have filled lots of pages with the JC vs Tiff discussion but you've summed it all up with a few words in 2 lines...
I'm a big Top & 5th gear fan. I try to collect everything I find on those shows and I think it's by far and away superior to other shows. Most of the things I have from these shows, I've seen about 2 times. Some clips (M3-911TT-...) I know by hearth because I've watched them over and over... So yeah, you can say I like it 8)

Personally I like Top Gear more than 5th Gear. However, if I have a choice, I would love to see jeremy and tiff together again. Nothing better than having two people with completely different opinion arguing  Would be nice to see a races like Tiff vs. Stig and Jermey vs. Vicki too! Am I asking too much? But it's christmas time, one can always dream....

I like Jeremy as a reviewer, Tiff as a driver. One example is the review of the Ferrari 360. JC said it was like a grasshopper, it shouts at you while waving its arms, Tiff just powerslid it.

Lets put it this way:
Tiff is a very talented driver who excels on the track and is an able presenter
Jazza is a very talented writer of columns who happens to like cars and is an entertaining TV Host. The chemistry between the 2 of them on the old TG was great.
It won't come as a surprise that I value Tiff's opinion on a car much higher.

^^ Me too, but only on the handling of cars. Jeremy usually has a better understanding about what's esthetically right/wrong about a car. Same thing with image of cars. Jeremy's analysis on what type of person drives what car is very good.
What are you doing up at this godawful time anyway, levensnevel?

Yeah..
I think Tiff is the better driver
Jeremy is better reviewer...
I like how Jeremy makes the viewers feel it's ok not owning this car becaue he is gonna say all the bad stuff about it..
