I fully understand, he's such a knob. You have to draw the line somewhere. Probably the reason I'll miss the program, as his nobbyness is what made it fun to watch. If they didn't fire him though, it would be like saying: Being violent and abusive is fine, as long as you're famous enough (which it actually is according to a lot of people :S)
Same format different channel and a different name, they're probably being bombarded with offers already. There's a lot of money to be made with a show containing the three of them.
As May indicated, I hope that he and Richard move on. The BBC is pushing forward with Top Gear but they don't have to be a part of it.
Yup, spot on - they work perfectly together and suck in the ratings, I can't see any other channel not wanting that
He probably is, although Netflix have a few of there own shows now. It'd be an interesting move actually.
I thought the eneie meeie saga was a bit off.... did u guys see the video? U couldn't really tell what he said. It's a nursery rhyme......wtf?
BBC just want an opportunity to stick others on the show in the name of equality and diversity. If the BBC gets shut down or goes tits up, I'll die a happy man
Apparently he changed the words to the racist version, from "Catch a kipper by it's toe" (Might be different in different countries) to, "Catch a N****r by his toe" (Racist term for a black person)
I also do not understand the motive behind action with regards to that clip. -It's a well-known nursery rhyme -It's a blooper -Barely of enough quality to tell that that's what he actually says -It wasn't aired I'm not sure if that is more of a witch hunt or more of a drumhead.
BBC should hire Chris Harris and Martin Brundle to make a serious car show. Would be better than Top Gear. Top Gear is a tired show. I can't see them carrying on on a different channel. It's time for all 3 of them to go do something new.
The BBC is just about arrogant enough to believe that it could re tool top gear and then bring it back with a new shiny format. Perhaps 3 or 4 years after the new format started it would have worked but it is obvious that these 3 guys ARE Top Gear. UKTV loves Top Gear (Dave's owners) I imagine that somewhere their is a UKTV exec who has four phones in his hands trying to throw deals together to get a Top Gear style show on their channel with the former Top Gear Presenters, hell they grabbed the rights for Red Dwarf and gave us 2 new series with a third one in the works, so it's nice to imagine.
