cered Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Nah he sold his rights and shares to the BBC years ago. Damn, hopefully he'll do Bender from Futurama... And start his own motoring show, with blackjack and hookers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Last week, the BBC released a statement about the current series of Top Gear, confirming that last night’s show (15th March) was to be postponed following an incident during production. The incident in question is currently being investigated and Ken MacQuarrie, the director of BBC Scotland, has been appointed to lead this process. We can now confirm that Top Gear will not be back in the studio this week and, as such, the episode due for broadcast this Sunday night (22nd March) will also be postponed pending the outcome of the investigation. We will bring you more news as soon as we have it. Did we not already know that? That's from an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I vote Guy Martin to replace Clarkson. Wouldn't work. If JC and crew go the whole show will get re-visioned. Simply because I think JC owns the format. Guy Martin is NOT a chat show host and that's what TG is becomming. There are better choices for a show about old men c**king about. And there is room for a high quality motoring show along side, and yes with a mix of vids by messer's Harris, Martin etc you could form a full on /DRIVE equivilent on the BBC... TopGear shouldn't be the only (loosely) motoring related show, the internet proves that. EVO and the BBC...doing their tours, racing round tracks and up and down passes...wait...you never read all that /goes off to agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I think two things: 1) Jimmy Carr could do it justice 2) This is going to make Mr Clarkson a far wealthier man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 All 3 could potentially take the show to channel 4 or similar. Nothing to say it needs to be shown only by the BBC surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 They all have contracts until after the live shows which as far as I can remember are still going ahead. After that I can see hammond and may doing their own shows on BBC like they have been doing, and Clarkson may do some version of top gear somewhere but I wouldn't be surprised if he called it a day. He's been getting obviously tired of it all over the past few years, and I doubt it'd work on another channel to be honest. It wouldn't go to 5 because of 5th gear, channel 4 wouldn't be interested, so that leaves itv which Clarkson has always seemed to have a dislike for. That might leave sky to offer them a huge deal and the show could be even better, I just can't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 It was in the news a short while ago that Clarkson is going to appear on "Have I got new for you", I bet that episode pulls in the ratings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny g Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I think he'll get sacked. They'll appoint a new person to present Top Gear and it'll never be the same. As a direct result the ratings will tank and Top Gear will be pulled at the end of the next series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 If they sack him, they'll have to change the format of TG radically. The current TG "is" JC and vice-versa. I've read rumours that JC is planning to present a new show about farming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read rumours that JC is planning to present a new show about farming. Agreed. Plus, Hammond and May aren't stars in their own right, they're sidekicks; so it'll take a strong personality to carry them. A wholesale change like when old-Top Gear became current-Top Gear. A third incarnation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supraleeturbo Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I read that if jc is sack the James and rich wI'll quite the show aswell, I dont blame the As it wouldn't be the same unless tiff comes back but that's unlikly as is still on 5 gear. Chris Evans if I'm not mistaken has refused the job for top gear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
