OK - who's the new Stig then? that looked like Lewis Hamilton's driving style when he was in the Atom, the way his right arm was resting reminded me of him too......it wont be LH tho - my guess would be BTCC's Tom Chilton maybe? all conjecture of course  :y

According to the TG special, seems that the rebirth of Jesus Christ is our new saviour Stig.
Well after all there was talk of a crucifixion after the showing of the special anyway  ::)  ;D

Must say even with me being an American yank ;D ;D. The UK Top gear is way better than the US one which is S*** if you ask me...

I know what your going to say...not like me to hold back on what i think...but it is very bad.

Our own Kevin Wood of course. He always seems to be absent from the forum on filming days. :y

A S/H Skoda Yeti would be perfect for me out here!

PMSL. Much as I'd love to be let loose in an Atom V8 the aftermath wouldn't be pretty. :-X

Yeah the UK Top Gear is done more slickly and there's a bit more chemistry there.  But I actually don't mind the US series, first 8 episodes have been quite promising.

once again they managed a first,
landing a helo on a car!
to go with the first time driven to the northpole,
and all the others,
slow start to the new series agreed but its always that way,
it will get better and better as the series goes on :y
