The final nail in BBC Top Gear.....

...Eddie Fu*king Jordan !!

 

Having seen the new lineup I can't help but have a feeling that they have chosen their lineup so has not to offend anyone. Black guy? Check. Woman? Check. Foreigner? Check. Older person? Check

I'm probably completely wrong but it was my first instinct upon seeing the line up, probably not helped by Chris Evans saying "We really do have a bit of everything for everyone."

 

A typical BBC approach, try to appeal to everyone and failing

Don't forget this is the BBC that also made it a rule to discriminate on panel shows by insisting they employ at least one female for EVERY episode of EVERY panel show that they broadcast regardless of ability or suitability.

 

not enough white anglo saxon protestants eh?

whatever next......

 

No, scrap the whole boring Feckin show and put something else on. That'd be me sorted.

 

Katie Hopkins said the same on Twitter

That's the BBC these days, everything has to be run past "Diversity Advisors", producers have no freedom, that's why most programmes on the BBC are crap.

 

Well if she said so it must be ballocks!

 

Except they aren't. Top Gear has been crap since it stopped being a review show about cars and became an extension of Jeremy Clarkson's ego.

But as for BBC programmes.....just 2 in the last few days that disprove your comment - War & Peace, and Happy Valley. Both quality programming.

 

Not quite up to the Beebs PC standards though

Sure if the could they would have shoehorned in some gay /lesbian transgender folks too, plus a guest from a different ethnic minority every week! .

btw You forgot the ginge!

The stig to get a blue badge

 

I would have given Matt Lelant a chance but not Mr Charmless. I wonder if he'll hide behind the microphone as he does in F1?

 

How can predictive texting come up with a word like Lelant which doesnt exist as far as I know and ignore LeBlanc which does? Made me look good in my first ever post.

 

It must be reight then

 

Yeah, what we wanted were 3 more middle aged men, preferably with some casual racism thrown in. As a taxpayer I demand it.

The new show must be crap, I don't have to see it because it's got a black man, a foreigner who is a woman and is also German! What does she know about cars!? What's my closeted little world coming to!

/s

 

On a serious note - it looks a good thing. I dont care much for cars but I do really like listening to people talk about any subject they are passionate about who can make it interesting. Originally Top Gear did this, but over the years the show became boring, repetitive, set up, but most of all it became more about the presenters non-car views and personalities - rather than about the cars themselves.

 

LOL What utter tripe.

 

Each to their own, but I can't see a televised copy of Auto-Trader getting a global audience of 160 million.

You mean that show that was panned because nobody could hear what they were saying?

 

Not sure what you are referring to as we could hear what was being said, no problem.
