Richard Hammond's Workshop

Great idea, great projects, all let down by filming it like it's "The Office", but unfortunately an unfunny version.

Obviously these programs are heavily scripted or at least contrived, that's how TV works, but this would have been far more enjoyable if it was natural. I can believe it if Clarkson's farm faces financial doom, but this show just looks like a tax write off, I just don't care that a multimillionaire can't make a profit fixing chipped paint on another multimillionaires Lambo.

Just show us fixing the cars up and anything fun that may come from it, or get another writer.

This whole endeavour was a TV show idea and not a garage. I hope the team of mechanics know they're on their own when the show ends.

With being saturated with dross and terrible ideas, this series isn't that. Always liked Richard Hamond and the Top Gear/ Grand Tour series. This isn't that either, this is something more interesting to watch and shows the creak and groans of real life reality of a small business owner. Really interesting too watch, and I am not really into older cars. But it's still interesting to watch History being reborn.

I didn't know what to expect, hoped it would not be another "fake drama, look, its RH doing stupid things making a prat of himslef again" type show.

It is not that at all! He has teamed up with a couple of very down to earth and extremely talented people and put their careers and his own money on the line.

It's well filmed, well scripted, seems very genuine and thoroughly enjoyable to watch.

RH is doing the right thing by his team and starting a business in a very competitive arena. It's a fascinating insight.

Fair play to him and the guys, it's a great show and I really look forward to every episode.

I hope the business succeeds and the show continues.

I would have expected more about the actual car restoration side of the business and less about multimillionaires driving around and worrying about having to invest 100,000 pounds into their startup, all while earning who knows how much from the TV show about said business.

Meanwhile, the format of the show itself is too reality TV-y for my taste. Too much screen time consists of people testifying into the camera and repeating at nauseam what's currently going on. I also don't get a great deal of joy out of watching Richard Hammond being emasculated at home as a recurring theme.

This could have been filmed the same way Clarkson's Farm was. Still obviously dramatized, and yet more... natural. The concept had every right to be just as interesting and entertaining.

Somehow, Richard Hammond's solo projects always end up a bit off, and the least enjoyable to watch out of the Top Gear Three.

I only watched 20 minutes of the first episode and decide to have a cup of tea. I didn't bother watching the rest of it I then watched the next 2 in a row now that there starting to work on cars it is becoming more enjoyable. Hammond just does not have the same class of dry wit that Clarkson and May have but I like it with less over the top drama. Just waiting on the first £5000 windscreen drop that most car shows have.
