Just a bit of fun!
Discussion
Okay, the news would have us believe that J.Clarkson is no longer the main man with Top Gear. How about some possible alternatives?
That person would need to have in my light hearted opinion the following pre requisites .
Be a successful existing motoring journalist.
The ability to drive like a demon.
Have a serious association with the big name manufacturers.
Not be a shrinking violet
Not be to old, though be old enough.
Not be shy of the camera.
Have earned the respect of so many top drivers
There is no contest!, I present my candidate ...... Chris Harris !!
Unless of course anyone knows a better alternative!

Jay Kay; I guess he owns a few cars. Far too smug with no real personality. Be honest he is not going to be the "Guy"
Chris Evans? Total, total respect! Why he is not Sir Chris Evans I do not know. He is far too busy to take on such a role, though if he did it would be great fun as a show.
The programme needs a personality with a penchant for driving and everything connected to that task. Combine that strong personality, boundless knowledge of the sort of cars that people aspire to owning and Top Gear has a winner.
Go on them suggest someone better. !!

Y'think ????? Personally I'd rather have my scrotum nailed to a bench top with a rusty croquet hoop than have to spend Sunday evening watching CH. That person would need to have in my light hearted opinion the following pre requisite .

Likewise Chris Evans.
Seems to fit your criteria :

Its was a scripted sitcom, that was gradually fading.
It's finished without Clarkson, who in my mind had to go in the light of current employment legislation. I thought he was, on the whole, quick witted, wrote well, and was saddled with the other 2 stooges.
Faulty Towers without Cleese.
Harris doesn't have the gravitas of Clarkson, nor the wit if this sitcom is to carry on in its current form. Nice guy,, but remians a PHer's wet dream, he simply won't have the wider appeal that's needed.
There is no one.
