now I dont want a rehash of the arguments on this thread....as theyre freely available elsewhere...
just names please...
ill kick it off with piers morgan...
he deserves a regular slot ...and it would certainly rile the person concerned...
or how about his best mate...who will also be looking for a new job in the near future......dc....

Piers Morgan instantly offered his services on via twitter - of course!
In terms of dividing opinion and being a hate figure, Piers is Clarkson's equal, but I don't think he's much of a petrol head (he owns an Aston Martin though).
Surely, Clarkson is a one-off, and nobody could ever replace him. Maybe Captian Slow and Hamster could take over the reigns with May as boss, and bring somebody totally silly like Michael Portillo or a woman - Anne Robinson or - yes! Victoria Coren Mitchell.
if were going down that road...how about ester mcvey...shell also have plenty of time after may...
shell kick the other two into shape...

Chris Evans & James Martin, are both petrol heads who have written newspaper columns about cars. Rowan Atkinson is very into his cars too
I think I would like to see a guest 3rd presenter teh same way they have a different chairman on HIGNY since Angus gpt the heave-ho. It works wll. It needn't be a car nut every time either. They alreadty have May & Hammond. Sometimes it coudl be someone who just represents the usual car-buying person. Someone who wants a safe reliable inexpensive car for work, family etc who is more interested in MPG than torque or brake horsepower.

Seconded.
Why not have a female presenter? We women do buy cars and Sabine probably knows as much about cars (if not more) as the other two presenters.

That is why I suggested Danica Patrick.
She has experience as a presenter, she certainly knows cars, and she is a race driver who could certainly put any test cars through their paces and discuss their pros and cons with a knowledge of motorsport driving and mechanics.

Some of the things they've done on TG to date would pale into insignificance next to what V&B could come up with:
Best models for driving over hard boiled eggs
Choosing an ironing board for the back seat
The star in the reasonably priced, flattest car ...
Oh and I forgot...
Who's on the end of the dip-stick, Vic?
I would assume that if they dropped Clarkson he would be snapped up by another broadcaster and take the audience with him.
wolfie the title of this thread reminds me of a sad love long, something that might be sung by the 5th Dimension maybe.
wolfie the title of this thread reminds me of a sad love long, something that might be sung by the 5th Dimension maybe. Ìý Chris Evans is a very good suggestion, but having said that I do think the whole TG concept needs at the very least a good long rest. It's very hard to imagine it without the three musketeers, but with or without them it's been feeling very tired of late. Maybe it's just come to the end of its natural. Maybe current incidents notwithstanding it was in truth time to say 'It's been great, but...'
Russel Brand, will make Clarkson look like a saint which will cause the producers to hurry him back on TV LOL.

beatxt,
Top post !
>>The star in the reasonably priced, flattest car ...
It would have to be very, very flat.
Inject a bit of class into the program, and have Brian Sewell host it. He is known to be a motoring enthusiast.
Alan Partridge.Ìý Why not! He has form on punching a ´óÏó´«Ã½ official.
