Chris Evans’ Top Gear hosting debut has been slammed by fans of the motoring show.

Many viewers were unimpressed with most of the revamped show as it returned to BBC Two – but Chris’ performance drew the most barbs.

Many thought the host was too loud.

There were many viewers who felt Chris was trying – unsuccessfully – to imitate former host Jeremy Clarkson.

Chris’ co-presenter Matt LeBlanc escaped relatively unscathed, with several fans even praising his performance.
