More Information

The original format consisted of a 30 minute programme, including approximately 7 minutes of adverts. The eighth season returned in the autumn of 2005 in a longer format of 45 minutes, and the ninth series (which went to a 13-week run) was increased to a one hour airtime slot (approximately 46 minutes excluding adverts). Besides giving out a car in each episode, Fifth Gear is distinguishable from the current Top Gear in that it is typically less outrageous and more of a straightforward motoring show

The tenth season, in addition to the arrival of Soccer AM's Tim Lovejoy as one of the main presenters, saw the introduction of filming the feature sections at the Ace Cafe in London, rather than the previous format of filming the links between features in the production company's offices in Birmingham.

The 11th season saw Tom Ford replace Tim Lovejoy as main presenter alongside Vicki Butler Henderson.
