    And Hislop likened him to newly-elected Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, adding: 'A man called Jeremy who has extreme views and won’t be in a job for long.'

    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        Top Gear or Top Bunk?



        An appeals court in*Argentina*has ordered a judge to reopen a criminal investigation into Jeremy Clarkson’s infamous drive through the country for Top Gear with a number plate apparently referring to the Falklands war, with prosecutors seeking a three-year sentence.

        The specific charge by prosecutor Daniel Curtale against Clarkson is of “falsifying, altering or suppressing the number of a legally registered object”, because he switched the offending plates.
        The Top Gear team ended up having to cut short filming and flee the country with a police escort after being told to leave by angry locals who stormed their five-star hotel in Ushuaia and threatened to kill Clarkson. The presenter and his co-hosts flew to Buenos Aires before returning to Britain.

          So, the new show is Gear Knobs (probably)
          Jeremy Clarkson's new Amazon Top Gear-style show could be called Gear Knobs - Telegraph


          And they've registered a name: Speedbird.


          Does this mean that Sabine Schmitz is going to be their racing driver?

            It is to Clarkson's credit that he has enraged these pathetic little people.

                Gear Knobs. Not a good name.

                I hope Amazon does not force JC to be politically correct. Large US corps can be like that. The Times today had a report of how executives at Sony pictures ordered large changes to the Spectre script, essentially to make it more PC & right-on. Yes Sony is Japanese but whatever.

                  Yes, but they need the publicity (I think I mentioned this a few weeks ago)...
                  "Leak" possible names for the show.
                  Make a story imply that a court case is coming up in a foreign country.

                  ...expect stories to come out soon about Hammond.

                      "The Grand Tour" apparently.

                      Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May FINALLY announce Amazon Prime car show's name is... The Grand Tour

                      Crap name. I liked "Gear Knobs".
