The Grand Tour. (Top Gear is dead).

I would watch a show that was just a Day in the Life of James May.

Like every week is just an hour following him around for a day.

James May wakes up and brushes his teeth exactly two hundred brush strokes. James May pours his cereal out, and pours the milk from the bottle into a separate decanter before pouring it into the cereal. James may spends twenty-five minutes cleaning the decanter and bowl and spoon.

[Colly]

His 'getting caught on his doorstep by Sky News' interview was pretty good too. I've always felt that in a quiz question of 'Which one of the Top Gear team isn't a twat?' the answer would always be James May.

He just seems like a guy who loves spending time tinkering in his shed with a cup of tea and a bit of peace and quiet.

As I get older I grow more and more to appreciate such ideals.

[JasonM]

Anything James May does I am transfixed by, whether it be Manlab, Toy Stories, or Top Gear. He's just so interesting and engrossed into the subject matter and his dry wit is the best there is.

Just give me more May, and I will be a happy man for life.

James May has been one of the most entertaining Twitter accounts I have recently paid attention to and I never thought I would type that.

Final recorded Top Gear scenes will be aired. Apologies for the source being Lad Bible

[thatshortguy]

Soooooooooooo how long until they just rehire them and keep Top Gear the same?

[K]

Slightly more reliable source than, you know, the lad bible...

[Lineker]

In my defence that wasn't published when I posted!

[K]

This is good news though. I'm looking forward to seeing the last of the material. I'm annoyed that we won't get to see Keanu Reeves as the Star in the RPC though. I was really looking forward to that.

The BBC has reportedly chosen a “dream team” of presenters for its new version of Top Gear that includes the former model Jodie Kidd. Life on Mars star Philip Glenister and Channel 4 presenter Guy Martin have also been approached for the new series, according to reports.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I love Jodie Kidd.

[MalaCloudy Black]

So supposedly Hammond, May & Clarkson are in talks to host a show on Netflix. It'd basically be Top Gear, but with a different title (obviously) - "House of Cars".

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Seems like they've worked something out to release those last few unaired episodes.

[Colly]

I wish they'd pixellated Clarkson W1A style.

[METALMAN]

They didn't need to work anything out. BBC own the footage.

[EddieG]

Yeah, was gonna say what Metalman said. It's all their property, what is there to work out? Clarkson got paid until the end of his contract, they don't owe him anything.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

I'd just assumed there was a dispute or something stopping them. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong.

[stokeriño]

The studio bits were always filmed the week before airing, right? Maybe they just weren't sure how to best package the pre-recorded material without those.
