I also suspect that having had Hammond an May unite behind him, it would look bad to go off and do a solo gig, leaving them high and dry?
A one-off appearance as a guest host is hardly leaving them high and dry, is it?

I guess it survives on being "current affairs" based?

Just seems like Merton can't be bothered and Jo Brand is always hosting.

Top Gear was one of the handful of things that we actually did record and find time to watch. I largely agree with Mr Springsteen (and Mr Waters, when he found only 14 channels of sh*t to choose from). I'm beginning to wonder if we can find a way to get everything we want from on-demand services, in which case we can bin the live to air equipment and tell TV licencing to poke it.
Wasn't it 13 channels smile

Unfortunately I've never found Jo Brand entertaining in the slightest.

Women comediennes aim themselves at women so it's no surprise.
What is, is that Russell Brand is even less funny.

Why? They have decided they can't afford the risk of employing him any more in case he decks someone else, but they never said they wanted to expunge him from history.

If you fire someone for thumping a fellow employee would you go round your business and all your customers undoing all the deals that person did, demolishing all the walls they built, buying back everything they sold, or whatever it was they did?

Maybe dave will buy it and put clarkson back on.

In the end though, I think it was time for it to end, pity it was like this.
