The curse of the Top Gear presenters. LOL

I see a female producer has already left because she couldn't stand working with Chris Evans. The whole thing looks more and more like a total disaster. It seems to have been cobbled together like something on WIA Only the Mebyon Kernow spokesman is missing.

I think it'll be quite good, when it gets shown on the programme. Evans doesn't have the say-so over what gets shown and what doesn't. He's not the producer.. Just protecting himself, he was. Big fuss over nothing.

GO was joking. It was quite funny.

I wish I'd seen the one by Big Ben. Looks much more interesting than the one in the Mall.

Someone had to get the 'Gideon' jibe in, didn't they?

(and there's no 'u' in Osborne btw)

Osborne made a tongue in cheek tweet "Trying to write my budget, despite noisy episode of Top Gear being filmed outside Horseguards Parade. Keep it down please @Chris Evans"

Of course some media portray as it a 'telling off'. They would wouldn't they. ?

Gideon Osbourne complained saying the noise of the TG cars were putting him off writing his budget Surely that can only be a good thing !

?

Neither does George Osborne.

Clarkson has nothing to do with it, Anniebach

Surely Osbourne didn't co pmplain because he like Cameron counts Clarkson as a bestie friend

I find the programme, its ethos and the presenters wholly distasteful - which is exactly what they want to happen of course.

Disrespectful or not how much money did that cost the License Fee Payer.

How do the tyre tracks left on the road surface get dealt with, they are a b----y mess.

It was a BBC conspiracy to put George Osborne off his Budget Speech wasn't it.

He's had a busy day advertising apologising!

Well he would, wouldn't he?

I don't like Top Gear or Chris Evans but on the Today Programme they played the apology he made on his own radio show this morning. He apologised 'unreservedly' and admitted that the whole thing had been a bad error of judgement.

Jeremy wouldn't have done it! (insert spoon and stir !)

mollie

I saw him driving the 'car' down the Mall. It was very underwhelming.

Total waste of time all of them.

In my opinion it was disrespectful and as many suggest purely a PR stunt. So Im going to go and do wheelies up and down the aisles in Arlington and see if anyone shrugs and says sorry about that!!

Grrrrr

The BBC seem to go a little lower in my estimation every day.

Not the complaint! The stunt! Do you think Matt Le Blanc, from the home of the free and probably a true patriot, would do something like that back home? It was meant to be controversial to attract attention. No doubt the complaint is genuine - even I didn't doubt that!

Evans

Evans is a self serving pillock.

He's got the publicity he wanted so now he can afford to be contrite and get even more.

I have a sneaky suspicion he'll lose interest in the main presenting job and leave after the first series.

James Martin will soon be available

I think the programme should have been axed long ago. It is stupid to do dangerous tricks with cars, when we are always campaigning for safer driving, particularly for the younger generation. Cars are not just an easy ride from one place to the other, they can be lethal weapons.

Do you think Colonel Richard Kemp was paid to complain, by the producer? Do you think he would take a bribe to do that?
