I'd be surprised to see it axed. It must be one of the Beeb's most watched programmes. It's almost constantly being repeated on UK Gold which I presume must mean there's demand for it.... it's certainly amongst the most entertaining telly at the mo, although I do think this series did leave the cars content on the back burner a bit. Bloody funny though! |

You're right S, it was a slightly "off-topic" series, but cant see it getting axed in the immediate future as it's way too popular with BBC Licence Payers. In fact, I think they're already re-running the last series, caught episode 1 (with the crash) again last night/Tuesday morning 2.15am. Slightly screwed by the sign zone though with Ted Rogers doing his 3-2-1 impressions. PS: DONT MISS "YOUNG ENVOY" ON C4 TONIGHT AT 9PM!!!!

TG has had a good long run and while it has been about the best program ever on the telly maybe it is best that it goes out on a high, rather than dragging on and getting tired - I can think of some programmes that have stayed long after their time should have been called. I think alos that the Beeb has realised that JC is not everybodies favourite TV presenter and while he calls a spade a spade, many of the big car makers are so lilly livered that they cannot take his criticism of their products and I suspect they have put the hard word on the Beeb to do something about him. I wouldn't be surprised if it re-appears in a year or so on C4 or ITV with the same presenters being paid evn more than they must be able to command now. JC in particular must have made most of his fortune from presenting TG - he was already pretty wealthy anyway as his family owns the TV, film and brand rights to Paddington Bear, he doesn't really need to work these days. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Good Comment Tim, and let's hope you're right about the phoenix rising from the ashes on another channel! |

I read today, in Clarkson's column in the Sun that Top Gear will be back in the autumn.
