Herr Diesel? or Herr Benz? I think we can skip that subject, as you obviously know more than what you are letting on. So I'll jump forward a few decades. Have you heard of the *BBC, and I don't mean boiled beef and carrots? Edit I better expand as there >100 acronyms or it could be a long day, the *British Broadcasting Corporation.

Herr Diesel? or Herr Benz? To cut to the chase, the following quote is from Urban Dictionary. I do not agree with all statements made, and am declining to say which. "A BBC program which is now a Cult in the UK and the rest of the world. Presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond are Gods amongst cars, loved by nearly everyone (male). Some women do like this program (see:********) and some women like this program to hate it (see:********). The program consists of English humour, put-downs, anti-euro remarks, anti-Americanist views and car test drives, but is so much more than that!" Nb JC,JM & RH left are last series after the sacking of JC.....hence this thread. Or, perhaps you knew this already and wanted to know what the other top gear was......that would be really good c*caine.

A little known fact about The Beatles. Before they became quite well known....John L. named the band The Beatless 'cos of the poor quality drummer, but he was advised to drop the second "s" because there wasn't enough space on the drum.

That was the real reason why he left and was replaced by an even worse drummer |

It's no surprise that Evans has resigned from TG today........I have watch all 6 programmes and thought there was a slight impovement......but on second thoughts I think my standards have dropped!!! Now, I think Jordan and Schmitz should also go...........best replacements I suggest are Steve Coogan and Rowan Atkinson, both have extensive motoring knowlege and both may bring some intelligent and original comedic talent to show which it has been sadly lacking. The yank has been growing on me and I think he could gel with SC & RA. Agree all but Schmitz Needs someone that can gel it all together

Agree all but Schmitz Needs someone that can gel it all together There are a couple of issues with Schmitz, whilst her driving skills are top notch, she has an irritating habit of screaming when she gets over excited and apart from her driving I do not think she could consistently present to a high enough standard, and anyway since Brexit she may not be allowed to work here! To bring a bit of femininity to the show the obvious choices for me would be either Suzi Perry or Vicki Butler-Henderson from Fifth Gear.

Whilst we are on the poaching subject, Tiff Needall would have been ideal as main presenter

An improvement would be to get rid of the Cheshire grinning sycophantic audience. When the original 3 presenters were working the show the audience were part of the act but now they are equally annoying as the presenters.
