Top Gear

[gazz10]

Not even a mention, of the new series that just started.

Great race between, train, car, motorcycle....just loved it when clarkson, got into the bar and just slumbed all over the place, first hard day work he ever did i bet..


So the stig got revealed....

Wonder how many actually believe its Michael Schumacher

He the only one alllowed to drive the Ferrari FXX, but besides all that great to see show back on the air, beats all the rest by miles.

yeah i enjoyed it and am pleased its back on, i dont believe schumacher is the stig though, i still believe its some sort of great rally or touring car driver

Most rekon it is Ben Collins...

Anyway, was a cracking start to the new series. Top Gear just gets better and better!

I have heard the actual stig is Ben Collins..

In the Health & Safety report from Hammy's accident named him..

The Health & Safety Executive report into Hammond's accident in September 2006 recorded that Collins had "worked closely with Top Gear as a high performance driver and consultant" and had prepared a briefing for the presenter.

Collins, from Bristol, has always denied being The Stig and could face the sack if he admitted it. The first Stig, stunt driver Perry McCarthy, lost the job after outing himself in his book Flat Out, Flat Broke, published in 2002.

Shummy was there purely to drive the FXX

Yep, good start to the series.
You'd think they'd run out of stuff to do by now, but they keep coming up trumps.

The stig is out!

I still watch it and it can still be enjoyable. But the presenters can be so pompous. All those challenges they do are so far fetched its just stupid now. Every week they make obvious blunders which are supposed to be funny. Fifth Gear much better. They put the cars to the test. Rant over

Ps is James May really gay? They slag him every week over it

Yeah, I like Fifth Gear too, but for shear entertainment value Top Gear has got the edge.

great show, i love it, wife likes it too... isn't there something like a 4 year waiting list now to be an audience member....

[Sirus]

Hamster once said it was a 19yr waiting list for tickets

I also enjoy watching it but I think Clarkson tries too hard to be funny and has a real Dense sense of humour sometimes... I mean the audience always laugh at him and i go like what the hell was so funny about that.. I like James May cos of his Snobby gimp like personality and the jokes the other 2 lay on him definitely make him woth while to have on the show

As for the stig I and my mate used to believe it was old Tiff from the old show now hes on FG.. its defo not Schuey, to small and shoulders arent as broad as the regular stig and also I think the media would have easily nailed him by wondering why he visits England so often and stuff like that

[Mr Pumpy]

Just watched it, thought Stephen Fry was well funny.

[lfc4life]

yeah he is

[.: JaCkPoT :.]

I used to think the stig was a few different race drivers varying from show to show..
