New Presenters

Ok, lets pretend we're the producers who would we choose as the new presenters.....

off the top of my head i'd go for....

Johnathon Ross, Jodi Kidd and Richard Hammond (thats if, he wants to stay on..if not then Jonny Smith from fifth gear)

Sabine, is that how her name is spelt?

Edd China, although I dunno how he might be locked in with Discovery through Wheeler Dealers.

Red Kev · 27-03-2015 09:10PM

James May, then two from Steve Sutcliffe, Suzi Perry and maybe Chris Harris or Chris Evans (he seems to have grown up a bit), or a former racing/bike driver like Carl Fogarty, Irvine or Coulthard (or even Ben Collins). Having some of them on rotation might be an ideal solution.

Can't stand Hammond.

Might be an idea to get a couple of guest presenters in for the challenges along with one or two of the main presenters; someone like Jimmy Carr, Paul Merton, Ian Hislop etc.

Chris Evans as the lead with Tom Ford (ex 5th gear) and either Steve Coogan or seeing as he's not up to much Jay Kay??

Dosent Sabine Schmitt do a German version of TG??

Edd China is fine for WD but a funny query presenter he is not. Besides he was briefly on TG during season one with Jason Dawe, before James May replaced him.

Forget it, Really, just forget it.

Jonathan Meades, Victoria Coren, Dara O'Briain

Steven Fry, Craig Charles and Mr Bean

FunLover18 · 27-03-2015 11:52PM

Knowing the BBC I wouldn't be surprised if Claudia Winkleman was involved somehow.

RayM · 27-03-2015 11:54PM

William Woollard, Chris Goffey and Quentin Willson. With Tiffany Dell as the Stig.

Bruce forsyth!!!

I've seen Guy Martins name mentioned in some places. He wouldn't be a bad choice.

XC90_D5 · 28-03-2015 04:17PM

Mat Watson from Carbuyer would be an excellent presenter! A woman presenter might also prove interesting...

Kay Brown

his yorkshire accent is too heavy, you'd need subtitles

Gatling · 28-03-2015 06:59PM

Bring back Viki

Mint Aero · 28-03-2015 07:00PM

Jeremy Clarkson, James May. BECAUSE THEY ARE TOP GEAR! NO ONE CAN REPLACE THEM! Hammond is replaceable.

That's not a Yorkshire accent. It's Lincolnshire, but he isn't the easiest to understand, you're right about that.

Clarkson is Top Gear, the other two are replaceable

Currently rumours of a new car programme coming to sky .

Top Speed fronted by Clarkson , Hammond , may .

Hopefully it's true

4068ac1elhodqr · 28-03-2015 07:54PM

Jodie Kidd is also now a joint fav now, Rebecca Jackson (racing driver & used car seller) could be a better option.

But at the end of the day it's a lads show for the lads, and lads listen better to other lads at the end of the day (very elementary advertising psych). Coogan might be good, please god not gadget freaks fry or bradbury.

Current list in sequence of shortest odds:

Dermot OLeary
Jodie Kidd
Guy Martin
Chris Evans
No New Presenter - Richard Hammond and James May
Edd China
Jason Bradbury
John Bishop
Johnny Vaughan
Stephen Fry
Steve Coogan
Richard Ayoade

Ladbrokes going short on Coogan (x8) at the moment.

Not true.. Rupert Murdoch has said Sky have no interest in Clarkson as he is no longer "family friendly".

So its ITV or Ch4..

I imagine they have a non-compete clause in their contract. So you wont see them on air for a while.

But I say netflix might pick them up. TG is huge globally and TG could attract an older audience to netflix

Slicemeister · 28-03-2015 08:13PM

Halle Berry, Jasmine Grabus and Kathia Nobili would be ideal.

Cars could be the set, so to speak.

mackeire · 28-03-2015 08:18PM

Steve Coogan, but only if he does it as Alan Partridge.

4068ac1elhodqr · 28-03-2015 08:25PM

Thematic in-character line up of: Partridge, The Anchorman, Vic Reeves and Keith Lemon quad-combo would be a ratings winner.

Dream team right there..
