Matt LeBlanc to leave Top Gear

[obi_waynne]

So Matt LeBlanc is to leave Top Gear, IMO he was a great asset to the show and will be missed.

Who do you think the replacement should be?

I only watched a couple when it got taken over.

And Chris Evans ruined it for me.

Matt doesn't do it for me either. He tries to be funny too much. By acting dumb. I find him really annoying to be fair.

 

[Lunchmoney]

I'll do it.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

I will be your "captain slow" Lunchy

 

[obi_waynne]

Somehow I thought we'd get lots of volunteers!

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

First in best dressed Obi San

BTW I forgot to say that I watched a few of Mats shows and couldn't warm to him and and Evans

Surely its time to let it go away. Its a bit like a great recipe only the three main ingredients were left out.
RIP

Been thinking on this. Sabine Schmitz would be great.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

Sabine, Lunchy and TCJB what a team !!!!

 

[obi_waynne]

We have solved another issue for the BBC!

I thought Sabine was already doing Top Gear, the German version?

 

[obi_waynne]

I didn't know there was a German version of TopGear. I guess it's in German, so probably not much use to me but I'm sure it'll be worth a watch.

Source?
Her wiki page disagrees about presenting on any Top Gear but the UK one.

 

[HRLNKN]

You're right. I was thinking of D Motor

 

[obi_waynne]

Do you have a favourite TopGear presenter from the entire history of the show?

 

[turbonutter69]

Tiff Needell!

 

[obi_waynne]

I forgot about Tiff, he's a great guy, a real genuine petrol head and the sort of person I can imaging enjoying a pint with. Good call @turbonutter69

 

[turbonutter69]

He's a great guy. I've always liked him.
Him and Jason on 5th gear together are hilarious.
Especially in their Scooby vs Evo battle.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

IMO the revised TG was like trying to recreate the perfect recipe without the right ingredients

Sabine.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

What he said ^^^^^

And now I hear that Amazon are going to axe the grand tour!
