There's only so many goofy things you can do with cars.

But damn I love that show.

Maybe they'll bring back the guy from season 1 that May replaced. That guy was even more boring than May (who I actually find quite interesting).

Bah, Steed, you don't need that show anyway. All you need is subsim.

Jason Dawe?

He was usurped by May who'd featured in the final series of the original Top Gear and was wanted by Clarkson and Andy Wilman. May refused until he watched it and Dawes was shown the door. I didn't like him.



Can't see him fitting well in the latest Pagani or Atom.

I demand he comes back too. I have no beef against Clarkson and was shocked to hear about this.

Yeah, I like May and Hammond but Clarkson is the heart of the show. I would have nothing to look forward to on Mondays without Top Gear. It keeps me sane...I need him back.

At a job interview in a West End of London Jobcentre yesterday:

"You do know the risks of this position? you may be subject to serious pressure, abuse, and even violence. "

"Yes, I understand and can take care of myself. "

"Good, welcome to catering for Mr Clarkson. "

What's the problem? They can just get another. There are plenty more Clarksons on Clarkson Island.

(Check out 'Clarkson Island' on Youtube if you think I'm talking gibberish...again)

he also hosted a couple of good documentaries about WW2 - youtube it.

Clarkson IS top gear....he's really the only reason for watching it.

this is kinda similar to the Anthony Cumia situation in the states last year...I hope this one ends up better.

Agreed, but he is a world class twat. An outspoken millionaire with an ego as big as Asia. Love him or hate him, Top Gear will fail without him

BBC better not get rid of Jezza otherwise the show is good as done. Also I know Clarkson can be a twat but he isn't a big enough twat to punch someone over a late dinner.(that's what I've heard is the cause of the suspension) Something else has to have happened that isn't leaking out.
