bad news: jeremy was dropped. great news: james may and richard hammond have also 'resigned' from d rubbish BBC. topgear was a show which thrived on violence n dirty talks, somebody was going to get punched along d way. sorry BBC, nobody is going to watch ur topgear again. the three guys will team up, get another production team and start another program as if nothing ever changed. heard they r bringing in some pathetic albino to replace jeremy. RIP topgear, u used to be my best show. |
