Post by DDtB » Sun Jun 07, 2015 3:41 pm

Heard him say this morning that he was recording a piece with an independent co. for Top Gear and they were going to "see how it goes"

No mention of who his co-hosts will be, other than they won't be May or Hammond.

I reckon it'll be sh*t...but I'll still watch it no doubt.

Still hoping Clarkson and Co get a new show on Netflix or something

I actually quite like him. All really depends who they put alongside....Jodie Kidd for eye candy and a.n.other?

Quite pleased to hear that news. He's creative, a good presenter, a knowledgeable car enthusiast, etc. Immeasurably better than most of the names that have been floating around.


...fascinated to read his hair colour matters.

AND....he's fun, without being childish like Clarkson. he'll bring some fresh and interesting ideas to the show, he's quite possibly the best candidate, so bravo Beeb :thumbsup

Enjoyed the trip down (happy) memory lane with the TFI Friday thing last week, even if it was just regurgitating the old format.

Also agree I cannot understand what his hair colour has to do with it :roll:

Glad Evans took the job. I hope Hammond and May go with Clarkson, and Evans gets a completely new team, making a proper Top Gear 2.0 instead of Top Gear 1.5. Needs a totally fresh start and some new ideas.

I've got loads of ideas.

Does anyone have a number for the BBC? Sitting here waiting for them to call me isn't working.
