No we want Suzi Perry, or one for Russ, Myleene Klass.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday

The cast will probably be bigger than just the three. I think they might have a rolling cast of a few more people rather than the traditional set-up. I would be surprised for example if they went with three middle-aged white guys again.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday

Why Matt Leblanc? Wasn't he always stuck in second gear?

Ex F1 boss too perhaps?

Matt has appeared on Top Gear a few times, i don't see a reason why Eddie can't be a presenter, it is not like his old job was a flower seller.

Hampster, captain slow and Clarkson all had a good knowledge of cars not just an interest. I've seen Le Blanc on a few car related programmes and he is definitely interested but once the questions come at him his knowledge is not great shall we say. Should of gone for Jay Leno.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday

Well I meant more like a woman such as Suzi Perry. They do make up about 50% of the population after all. I think the main issue is that if they stuck with three male presenters trying to form the chemistry that the prior three had it would be awful. They are going to have to change the show and attempt to avoid being a pale imitation of what went before.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday

Yep, definitely lacking some decent crumpet. I suggest Lily James out of War and Peace or Gemma Chan out of Humans. We don't want ugly people on the Show even if they think they know about cars. Top Gear is more than a car show.

Louise Brady

She's car mad and also easy on the eye.

IIRC her first outing was commentating on banger racing on L!ve TV.

What were Clarkson, May, and Hammond doing on the show, then?

They weren't 'easy on the eye'...

Respectively they were oafish, tiresome and short. Definitely needs crumpet.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday

They will easily be able to find a female presenter who knows about cars. Suzi Perry being the obvious choice. At the moment all the presenters are car enthusiasts.

Suzi was fine doing the bikes but she didn't really bring much when she switched to cars imho. Besides, someone new ought to get a break.
