I thought Top Gear made a huge profit - so it shouldn't be anything on the license fee.

The original top gear made a huge profit, I doubt the new version will do as well, especially with original trio launching a show on Netflix.

First interview with LeBlanc about his involvement and his surprise at reaction to the news:

LeBlanc's commitment to the show would seem to be a couple of months and TG will likely have to be in post-production by April as he is scheduled to be filming Extras at that time it states.

Eddie Jordan about to sign on last presenter?

New info:
Last location filming to be in South Africa in early March.
LeBlanc on £500,000 salary "with more than half of that to be paid for by BBC Worldwide".
Top Gear live events will continue but not known who will take part.
Top Gear’s UK base will remain at Dunsfold Aerodrome, near Cranleigh in Surrey, "albeit with a major makeover.However, it has emerged that the owners of the airfield have lodged an application to build 1,800 homes on the site."

It doesn't matter who the BBC get in the way of new presenters for Top Gear. There is still the basic fact, that Evans is an egotistical knobhead.

So revaled the full team for top gear takes 6 people to replace hammond clarkson and may Wink

A deliberate choice to make sure all the rest were less tall than Evans?


RE: Top Gear - ShandyHand - 11-02-2016 14:23

^ lol. That's why it took sooo long! All makes sense now! Thanks circles. WinkSmile

Additional thought: This will do nothing to counter the Daily Mail type argument that BBC is all too often an over-staffed jolly boys outing.

It could also be said that the above line up is a recreation of the old farts trio plus three new tokens (in the name of race, sex and global commercialism). The new TG will have to go some to cast off such lazy definitions.

Maybe one of them has to lose a leg to be more disability friendly Wink

Evans is 6' 2" though, so he was always likely to be the tallest presenter on the show.
