I guess we'll find out who he is soon enough once papers are filed, or is this juste more hype?

Unbelieveable that this was a rating "story" on 5Live this morning. I'm a fan of TG but this was just shameless cross publicity. Betting it will be out for Xmas, will contain nothing interesting and in the bargain bins by Easter. rolleyes

"Only a handful of the show's executives and Top Gear presenters Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are said to know his true identity."

Oh, per-lease. Do they really think the people who don't know by now actually care?

If a book is published, what's the betting the publisher is linked to TG in some way?

I suspect B*n C**l*n*' contract with the BBC has a clause specifically to prevent this, as the previous Stig was unmasked when Perry McCarthy published his autobiography forcing them to get a new Stig

I think mimes have made up most of The Stig's screen time, when he's in racing driver mode they usually use shots of the car rather than a man in a suit.

Much that I like her booty, Boyonce Knowles is not the Stig.

Idiot.

I thought it was proven beyond all reasonable doubt that Michael Schumacher is The Stig?

Actually - Beyonce as The Stig must have better marketing opportunities?

Well I for one don't know for sure who The Stig is (only believe things seen with my own eyes and even then am hugely sceptical) but then again I don't actually care.
