The bloke never complained though... Suppose it'll all come out in the wash.

Looks like the Top Gear 'Live' shows have been 'postponed' too......... BBC are really shooting themselves in the foot now - but what do they care - after all it's OUR TV Licence money they are wasting away!! :lol:

I fancy that German woman Sabine Schmitz, she would make a good replacement.

Is that the Sabine who chases big cats around the African Safari?

This could be a good thing in the long run. He'll find a new vehicle to entertain those of us who enjoy non PC schoolboy humour and be out of the hair of those who don't. I think it was getting harder to come up with fresh ideas for Top Gear anyway.

Can't say I've got much against the bloke, but I find it quite reassuring that no one is above being dealt with. Verbal abuse and a split lip, nothing to condemn the man for? What about armed robbery, anyone still on side? Or how about mugging an old lady, still got the thumbs up? :roll:

That was just about a typical day when I worked for the Coal Board in the 1970's! Apart from the mugging old ladies bit, of course.

So, the BBC has a highly paid job vacancy for a grumpy old man a bit overweight and not dressing too smartly, who likes banging on about cars? Where do I get an application form?

I'll try not to upset the foreigners, promise!

The whole ethos of the Top Gear show doesn't fit with the lefty BBC attitude these days.... Maybe they will sell it off . And the loss of £50M income it brings? Matters not - just put the Licence Fee up a couple of £s - there - we fixed it! :wink:
