James Martin would be worth a couple of quid bet for one of the other chairs, already on BBC contract. Also writes a car column for a Sunday paper
iirc.

Didn't a certain radio 2 and One show presenter say in march he wouldn't be a top gear host?
I'm with the above, please don't let James Martin on, the mille miglia program he did a few year back was awful and TopGear Magazine ran
an article agreeing with me on this one.
In a White Room, With Black Curtains, By the Station.

"Let's see who we over expose on telly and radio and use him. That should irritate a few people.

Another reason for me not watching TG again, I can not stand people who shouts, to make themselves heard,
And Chris Evans does like that idiot James Corden

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at
I like Evans. I just hope they choose some decent co-hosts and change the format as I thought Top Gear was tired. I think I would rather the hosts
from Chop Shop than Jodie Kidd.
I really don't like Evans and his whiney voice.... But as others have said the format was tired and dull...
So shake up the show, have Evans, Guy Martin and Sabine and do something a bit different...
But its the beeb...they will play it safe and keep the same format and get in "generic" presenters who will tow the party line.... They
should have left it a few years first though!

Guy Martin may not be a great choice - he admitted recently that he finds it very difficult to relate to people, and sometimes needs to spend time
alone. His publicity people usually limit his interview time to 30 minutes or so because of it. (They did say what his personality disorder was -
Asberger Syndrome, a form of autism).
It's funny, the general public seem aghast at the choice of Chris Evans to replace Jeremy Clarkson, yet here on this forum, we welcome it. Then
again, anyone that builds their own cars is a bit nuts.
