BB, why does it stick in your craw so much that Top Gear, in it's current format, IS hugely popular? The current format is bought, and watched in many countries around the world. It is copied, and emulated by BBC Worldwide, including BBC America (which is crap, TBH.)

You don't like it, fine, don't watch it. There are thousands, nay millions that do!

Oh, and

Another boost for on demand TV services like Netflix.

I just can't stand that Clarkson lad Soff...

I hate bombastic people with a vengeance..

Hope you enjoy the show.

By the way, surely one has to accept that no matter how much YOU like a show, others may not share that love.

That's the way the world goes baz

Anyone hear Mark Evans on the Anton Savage show yesterday.

He definitely said his name was in the mix to co present.

Personally I like to see him along with Ed China on the show. I'd actually start watching it ( if we had TV, presume it won't be online)

You'd be able to get it on the iPlayer, I presume, with a proxy.

From the ever reliable Popbitch:

>> Pissed-on heads <<
The man with a golden gun

Jeremy Clarkson's temper
tantrums were so frequent
at Top Gear, claim some
production staff, that they
developed a code for his moods.
If things ever reached a 'CC4'
('C*nt Com Four') then you'd
know not to approach him under
any circumstance – even if it
was urgent.

Given that he punched a man
over a bad dinner order, we
can only imagine how Clarkson
would place on the C*nt Com
scale if he ever found out
that irked crew members had
taken to pissing in the water
pistol that he used to spray
himself down with to keep
cool when filming in the
southern states of America.

FYI: Dealing with May and Hammond,
they say, was much easier.

i wouldn't believe half that sh!t

foggy_lad · 11-07-2015 10:15PM

It seems now that the presenters are unable to present or take part in any similar show for at least two years.

Are you at all interested in the difference between Imperial measurements and the Old British Apothecaries Units?

CLARKSON, along long with co-hosts James May and Richard Hammond, aren't allowed to work on a similar show on UK TV for two years.

They have a very good track record, loads of connections.

KKkitty · 11-07-2015 10:45PM

BBC 3 are still showing Top Gear which I find strange. Maybe they don't have anything else to show?

One of those things that, though you don't really believe it, you really wish it was true.

They will be back on TV in a couple of years once their quarantine is over.

smurfjed · 30-07-2015 09:09PM

I presently have Amazon Prime to cut down on shipping costs, so the streaming service comes free

I agree, probably the bbc & for a fee bigger than they were already on before all this

All welcome..... but it will be cheaper to buy Prime that a ticket to visit me

:)

According to Engadget and WSJ; There could be a deal to make the show available to local broadcasters where Amazon Prime is not available.

Nah

Don't think so, past their sell-by.

Yesterday's men , on the way out.

My VPN probably believes that I'm somewhere else.

You'll have to wait a little longer I'm afraid before you're dream comes true, Brendan. Amazon certainly don't think so. And they're no mugs. And they've given him full editorial control. So this'll be the bbc show on steroids. And according to amazon 'a substantial investment'

You've still got that hard on for wanting to see Clarkson, May, and Hammond fail, don't you?

Did you not read the bottle? If erection lasts for more than 4 hours, please consult a doctor.

Just my opinion, just my opinion.

Been gone too long now and appearing on some obscure medium won't do them any good.

Beginning of the end for the lads, will never be the same again.

Clarkson blew it by assaulting that work colleague.
