Heard this on the Radio tonight when washing the car.

I think he is potentially a very good fit, but only time will tell I guess. One things for sure its a very hard act to follow.

I like Chris Evans.

I don't like Top Gear.

So I'm really not arsed.

[D6Nutz]

I don't mind top gear (but that was mainly the banter of the old fat abusive twat)

I can't stand Chris Evans..

Hopefully Clarkson, Cpt Slow, and Hampster will get a deal sorted somewhere else, as an entertainment show they where quite a laugh together.

[Blade]

Is Chris Evans hosting on his own or is he part of a team of 3 ?

[Kwacky]

Evans is interviewing for cohosts

[Blade]

Get some fit totty in that always improves ratings

[R34PER]

I think Georgie Thompson would do ok. been in motorsport and long time on sky sports, was also funny on "a league of their own"

[Blade]

I'll have that

[Rossgo]

You know what I like Chris Evans I think he's got a good sense of humour and would be the right choice for the job. be nice to see him back on telly more often. Think he will serve the show well

[Spudda]

Reports have it that there be more bikes and with Guy Martin rumoured to be interested, that would be quite good

The other co-host rumour is Jodie Kidd

[Deegee]

Can't see a good balance of bikes & cars happening, the BBC will want to keep the winning format as it's their top seller abroad. Let's be fair bikes are seen in a fairly negative light in most countries, that'll probably reflect in any content recorded due to resultant saleability.

[duke63]

Deegee, I would dispute that bikes are seen in a negative light in most countries.

From my experience, much of mainland Europe has a very different and positive attitude to bikers than that we see in the UK.
