I might consider it when a faction stop making out that he is a major media success and a nice guy. Step away from the PR job he has done on himself and there is enough information out there to know that he is neither.
He is a financial success relatively speaking but that's the end of it.
I took a battering when I was forecasting (100% accurately as it turned out) how his tenure of of Top Gear would turn out, so its a laugh that folk still think I have Evans wrong.
It would be nice to think that he will now disappear into his chosen obscurity at Virgin, but I jested not when I said I now predict he will go back to his attempt to revive TFI Friday.
Aye, without a doubt you were the only one who predicted how TG would go for Chris Evans. Not one other person had the opinion he wouldn't fit in. He is a financial success relatively speaking but that's the end of it.

I would rather you stopped relentlessly posting about him, but is it his level of success or failure that upsets you to this hysterical level?
Why such a personal hatred that fuels you this much into a bumbling mad man?
You don't need to go over all the same points again to answer the question.

I'm defending nobody but Evan's salary wasn't revealed because the BBC don't pay him a salary.
They contract his company to make the breakfast show and provide Chris Evans to host that show. The contract value also has to cover production staff, researchers and all other costs. What Chris Evans earns is drawn from his own company that also makes TV shows and provides other broadcast services.
Evans is not involved in production anymore. His directorship of UMTV ended in 2007, and Ginger Productions was sold to STV in 1999. He has no involvement in the production of the BBC2 Breakfast Show except his input as the show's host. BBC declared that he was paid between £2.2million and £2.5million in the years 2016-17, with some of that being for his work on Top Gear as well as his radio show and occasional appearances on The One Show.They contract his company to make the breakfast show and provide Chris Evans to host that show.

The situation you describe above does however apply to Graham Norton's work for the BBC.

He jacked in because his salary was disclosed. The bloke from the BBC said we can't attract the top talent anymore, also they're reviewing whether to continue with free licences for the over 75s.So that prick gets the hump because everyone finds out how much he's being paid.
Am I missing something here but if the BBC haven't got to pay him a king's ransom every week soon surely that should free up some cash regarding the free licence for the over 75s?
Time the BBC had a reality check.

He might earn £10k a year.
.
Anyone know where Alex Lester is working now? He got the chop from the Radio 2 overnight show because the BBC wanted to make cuts.

At the end of the day it's up to the BBC bosses how much they pay their workers and it's up to each individual if they buy a tv licence or not but I bet the vast majority of tv licence payers would rather they found a cheaper alternative to run the Radio 2 Breakfast Show and used the money saved on better causes.

This doesn't make particularly interesting headlines so is a fact that's normally glossed over in the media.

I'm just curious where the drive comes from; it would be akin to me taking the time to research the eye colours and favourite foods of each member of the Backstreet Boys, mental.
Blue, blue, brown, green, hazelPizza
Roast chicken with southern fries
Mom's homemade apple pie
Mac'n'Cheese
steak!
