F1 car has already been seen.

If we wanted someone who bottled it, we should ask for gordon brown instead!

May is brilliant. hes different to hamster and clarkson, gives a random view across at times and says "oh cock" every now and again. if he's only earning that compaired to the other two then its a shame as he makes the programme a bit more interesting.

would be very difficult to replace clarkson or may as they bring so much of their unique character to the show.. i'd replace hamster with warren pole, he was great doing ultimate biker challenge on discovery

Fuck the fact that she's german, people only want her because Clarkson created a bit of hype about her during the Nurburgring feature!

Had he not have done that particular exercise would anyone want her on there then!?

She's not even a fucking TV Presenter ffs!

I find Hammonds attampts at comedy painful

Out of the 3 i'd miss him the least, needs a female on TG, it would be fun

Agree about Hammond, he's the one i would miss the least if he was to go.
Clarkson and May are really funny and its them that make the show.

all this has come about from when the ginger bloke from the radio said one of his listeneres said they were at the show and they overheard it

and a few weeks ago someone who was at the show said that hamster was a grumpy fuck

hamster got a lucky break when he plucked from obscurity on men and motors to present top gear and at times he does seem to have very scripted lines, when he's out in the car he's fairly good, but his studio presentations seem very wooden and forced

they were saying that if someone left they would bring in emma parker bowles, if that's the case, i'll stop watching

Get rid of James??? Nooooo I quite like him, seems to have come into his own in the last couple of series, I can't imagine it without him and he add a nice contrast to the other two.

Vicky is nice to look at, but she is RUBBISH as a presenter!

Can't have Clarkson leave, he is bullish, non pc, and funny as hell. I'd let him go if he went into politics! I'd vote for him!
I think May's a total cock, he looks like a spaniel and needs to sort that fucking mop on his head out.

Agree about VBH, you'd definately hang out the back of it but as far as presenting goes, she's shite.

If the BBC were to employ VBH as a TG presenter, I would personally hunt her down and fucking shoot her repeatedly until she were dead.

Some things are worth a 25yr prison sentence!!!! ROFOL
