KZbin is squashing the search. I had to click a follow link, searching TDC and Top Dead Centre didn't show the channel. Hopefully that gets resolved. Hope you're pounding links out on the socials boys o7

[@motorvidz101]

Alex your a proper legend mate in your own right now and i think its great to see you helping out and inspiring other to risk it and jump to do what they're passionate about on KZbin just as Mike Brewer did with you. Tdc guy's all the best with the channel and alex and the lad's love it keep doing what your doing best car channel on the tube 🎉❤❤🎉🎉

Edwin with Jack and Ethan was the best CT combo, the owners have really stripped that channel of anything good at every opportunity. I would love for Jack and Eathan to jump ship and join you guys. Best of luck, looking forward to seeing what's ahead for yopu guys.

[@IvanAtThe555]

Yeah. I wondered why CT had dried up. I was really looking forward to it finding its feet once Alex was gone and we didn't have to put up with his try hard 15 year old recycled Top Gear gags any more. Then it never really happened.

[@JDWDMC]

@@IvanAtThe555Thank God. I thought I was the only one who couldn't stand Alex.

[@corruptionisrife]

Alex is just as irritating as Mike Brewer.

[@gingerelvis]

@@JDWDMC I was never really a fan of Alex either, he just loves attention and it's grating. I'm happy he has his own thing going on now, people who like that kind of thing can go there and we can avoid it. I just hope he doesn't get too involved with TDC.

[@destructionnl8165]

@@gingerelvis He is very much involved with this channel. He's helped Edwin start this and will be in some videos. This video was recorded in Alex's unit and the Porsche that will feature in the next video on here is currently parked inside Alex' unit. So Alex is very much involved.

Good luck both! This is going to be great -- enjoy yourselves!

Safe to assume then that you had nothing to do with Will's redundancy and Callum leaving for his own consulting initiative? I ask because, you know, internet mobs like making villains out of people.

[@jekanyika]

​@@TheAlbaniaGamingI can't see it

[@PaulBlamey]

From what I've seen my guess is Will and Callum are good but they both don't seem on good terms with Scott. This is just based on social posts where they basically don't mention Scott at all. Haven't seen anyone mention anything official.

[@Christopher_175]

isn't Scott the 'channel owner' he talks about? the fact that Will pointedly mentions he was just shy of 2 years at overdrive means he didn't get any redundancy pay so he probably wasn't too happy about it

[@StephenButlerOne]

They will no doubt be jumping over soon.

[@jools182]

Agreed, Edwin Jack and Ethan are the best trio

[@JonD_44]

I so hope they do. It's like when Jeremy got sacked from TG, it wouldn't have been the same without the three of them working together. It didn't matter that it then became The Grand Tour, what mattered was that it was still 3 mates pissing around with cars 😊

[@Bartman954]

Hopefully, Jack and Ethan are not just Alex's friends, they're his brothers. So some good AutoAlex and TDC cross-content with Ethan and Jack would be amazing!

[@destructionnl8165]

[@MatsGarage]

Your former employers are going to wake up and realize that a "big channel" without its hosts/presenters is just a bag full of wind. I'm here for whatever shenanigans may come. (can we get a "we bought the cheapest seven in the UK" series?

[@eriksimca9409]

well CT in general has been a sinking ship for some time now, it wouldve only been a matter of time even if alex stayed. i bet theres not more than maybe 1 or 2 years before CT completely goes under (website and all). if a company cant budget you good materials for a video you know its bad.

[@Rose.Of.Hizaki]

When Alex left CT, CT died. It felt like CT was stumbling around trying to get back on its feet. Then EDWIN came along and he basically saved the channel for me. His humour and personality complimented the others well and he was the absolute perfect candidate to take over for Alex. Instantly subbed. I hope you can bring the other two guys along with you.

[@clutchthepearls3062]

I think CT got better when Alex left. Jack and Ethan just felt like sidekicks when they were together. Alex works better with Taylor on his own channel while Jack, Ethan, and Edwin worked well as a group. Sadly it looks like Jack and Ethan need to find new jobs.

[@jameswalmsley9038]

Gonna be sad not seeing Edwin on Car Throttle anymore but I’ve instantly subscribed because the restoration videos were the best ones to come from that channel. I’d personally love to see a transparent price breakdown after each restoration, then comparing it to buying one of a similar quality, to see if it was a wise decision or an Edwin decision.

[@samholdsworth420]

It was always nice having everyone in one place at CT, the content was fun, very enjoyable to watch; but the idea of having multiple channels now, TDC, AutoAlex etc etc, is such a nice thing, more enjoyable content, more often.
