here’s their lineup, from the BBC.
Jeremy Clarkson
Jeremy’s irreverent style turned the motoring industry on its head when he first appeared on Top Gear and now he’s set to do it all over again with this series.
A few things have changed over the years. The hair’s a bit thinner, the cowboy boots have gone and the Ferrari has been replaced by a Mercedes. Thankfully, though, JC is still more than capable of reducing car manufacturers to floods of tears with nothing more than a long pause and a few well considered words.
James May
James has been writing for car magazines - including Top Gear - for many years. Over that time he’s developed a keen interest in cars that are either very posh or very basic.
He admits that he’s not so good on the stuff in between and, as a bachelor, is ‘very poorly placed’ to comment on family motoring. ‘Jeremy can do that,’ he says. ‘He’s got a wife, hundreds of children, and a dog.’ He also likes motorbikes.
Richard Hammond
Richard, like so many before him, launched his TV career at Britain’s premier breeding-ground for fresh talent: Radio Cumbria.
He eventually landed his dream job as a TV presenter on a motoring show but, alas, the show was on cable TV where the cameramen regularly outnumbered the viewers. We thought it daft to waste all that genuine petrolhead enthusiasm, so we gave him a job on proper telly.
“thought it daft” :lol: That shit with the used Bentley was absolutely hilarious, because I’ve looked at those ads too and thought, “hell, a '68 MkII jaguar saloon for $21k, I can afford that, right…?”
