Wasnt there a rumor that someone else might take on the whole team and carry one with the show??
If that happens a rival show is out Id imagine?
Secondly they've sorta done it all by now it was getting a little same old same old.

YUP!...netflicks and MANY others have approached the team about doing a new show...with a much bigger budget and no public TV/BBC "restraints" to hold them back...should be very interesting what happens

Well, I guess they'd tick the BBC's bleeding-heart lefty criteria...they're funny as scripted characters (well Coogan usually is, Gervais, not so much) but as presenters being themselves? Pass.
If they're going to keep the Top Gear brand going, then they need to kill this format along with Clarkson and come up with something new. If they try to fit three new bodies into the old format, it's going to fail.
Anyway, if Jodie Kidd's the token chick, where's the token Ethnic? Lenny Henry?

There seems to be bugger all other reasons to watch TV .. I certainly don't watch it for the quality of the programming ..

Top gear?....Clarkson & the lads ARE top gear!
Sorry, but the shows gone!, dead!, history!!...you can't replace the CORE of the show and expect people to simply "adjust" to new presenters.
...Or do you HONESTLY think that Jodie will drive a modded 4x4 across the antartic just because she had an idea to do it over a pint with the lads?...or Guy Martin will suddenly learn the english language enough to becoming riviting AND understandable...and for Philip to suddenly become ...well...interesting! (Have you guys even SEEN his current show?...ZZZZzzzzzz - Same goes for Jodies!, its not really about the car's!, its about the "style" of the car (Like there a fashion excesory) and the wonderful "lifestyle" of owning classic's...there about as interesting as there current shows ratings prove!)
R.I.P Top gear...it was a great journey...looking forward to the lads new project(Netflicks for one are hounding them...and the BBC SHOULD be worried if they go for a new GLOBAL!! deal...imagine Clarkson & co with no restraints and a bigger budget!...madness shall insue)
Strangely enough, was thinking about this when I stopped for a break during my ride today. You've summed it up well.

I'd probably be watching if it was her too, but not listening to a thing she said. There's bugger all about cars that's of any use anyway.

I have no wish to appear unsympathetic. I was thinking though that the four hours drinking Clarkson was reportedly doing while he delayed the return filght of the helicopter to the hotel might have been more of a contributing factor. The chef got fed up waiting and went home, Clakson deservedly got a cold dinner.

Tisk, tisk, how uncharitable.
Top Gear is NEVER going to be the same without the lads.
Good luck to whoever takes em all on and puts them out there as simply themselves with a car or two, it will work!
Why? harder to explain, but put simply, they enjoy what they're doing.
I don't care that a bloody gutless wonder frog got a face full of fist, I don't care that Jeremy had, had an hour or two of grogging before he got back to find a cold feed.
I only care that he, Hamster and James are the only mix that works.
Consider this you lot, not one of the widely reported incidents had ever even gotten into the can( For you idiots, it had been filmed, but not edited) when it was edited, the bits we've all heard about, WEREN'T THERE!
How is it we came to see those bit's or hear what was being said?
Someone within the BBC wanted rid of Jeremy, and they tried very hard to discredit him and the lads.This someone/s did not even stop to consider the World Wide knock on effect, they've screwed the BBC out of it's most lucrative television show in decades.
Fuck THEM, come on lads get on tele somewhere else, I don't care where, I will watch you forever!
And there's more than enough like me out there to make sure you! survive and survive in style.

Boycott the BBC, from here? yeah right!
Encourage three guys with some semblance of mate ship and pride in what they do, Oh Yeah!
Put up with whinging Poms who are supporting a fucking Frenchman? NEVA!
Bring on 'The Not Top Gear Show" and fuck over the BBC, yep.

She raced cars for several years until a crash and now does some classic racing stuff and already is a presenter on a car program, she'd fit in fine
5th gear was a better program if you're into cars anyway, a bit more real world
