Chris Evans...
Discussion
Hmm. Car nut, not afraid of controversy, decades of experience, hugely intelligent and liable to go a bit off-script.
Reminds me of someone...
Seems a reasonable choice? If you look at it in a different context, say JC dropped dead instead of dropping an assistant, we'd be applauding someone stepping in to his shoes to keep the show running, and hopefully reviving a pretty tired format.

Bad move, total disaster......
Clarkson had a million sign up for his return to Top Gear, and that's because he had a connection with a large proportion of TG viewers.
Could you see that happen with Evans? Not a chance. Too many of his mates will be on the show telling us about their latest £5mill Ferrari.
10/1 James Martin will be on the first show as a guest.

t - so i didn't watch it. I do like Evans. Can't be any worse! I'll be watching 
Given the other names banded around to replace the late JC (Jodie Kidd, Nick Knowles etc) I think he is a good choice. He is a celeb and not a car journalist but he is known and liked and disliked in equal measure like JC.
As he has a 288GTO he obviously has impeccable taste in cars so I am willing to give him the benefit for now.
If they get the other 2 right it could work really well - Chris Harris and Henry Catchpole would work really well for me, enthusiastic puppy and posh geek - sound familiar?

This nonsense with TG is like dealing with a slow motion car crash.
Just shut the show down (this happened as soon as JC walked/pushed) bury the name, let the dust settle then start again.
This whole car programme thingy needs a re-format and this would have been the ideal opportunity
