Petrolheads for PistonHeads?

[Zad]

Apologies if this has been posted before, but I did a quick search around and nothing came up (Petrolheads got squillions of hits, Applause Store only 1).

The BBC are recording a new car-themed panel game show. Recording will be on Sunday 20th March at 6pm in Wembley. The bumph says:

"Petrolheads is the new BBC panel game show along the lines of "Have I Got News For You" - but about cars and all things car-related!

The show is to be hosted by Neil Morrissey with one of the team captains being Richard Hammond from Top Gear. Other top celebrity guests to be confirmed."

Full details via the usual Applause Store site: http://209.61.226.18/Site/shows/show/index.php?id=130

I was actually looking to see if any Top Gear recording dates were up yet (they aren't). I wonder if something is amiss in BBCLand?

Other top celebrity guests? Does that not imply the presence of some top celebrities already?

Oh god, just like Becs! (My fiancee!)

What is it about him?!? Is it that he's the same height as you lot? Or just that he reminds you of an incontinent puppy you used to have when you were 5???

I'm just waiting for someone to make a joke about musical instruments that work by rotating a toothed wheel past a magnetic pickup...

So, there's an English man, an Irish man and this musical instrument that worked by rotating a toothed wheel past a magnetic pickup......
