I hope Seven can finally have another hit with something and not just because of my love affair with them. They’ve been copping so much slack lately and The Grand Tour actually does look like a decent show after ‘Top Gear’ so I just hope it won’t be another bloodbath to them again come tomorrow morning at the hands of Nine’s warpath show I will not mention the name of…
