I doubt if they could afford him.

His own show 'Jay Leno's Garage' has just been renewed for another season on CNBC in the US and has just started being broadcast here on the 1st Feb on 'Discovery Turbo' whatever that is.

I think you're right - hence why I'm so glad that Amazon picked up the trio. I just have no idea how I'm gonna watch it!

I can't say that I've ever seen a spontaneously funny American so I'm not optimistic

Imagine the insurance bill for the show if he was on it though........

Still, reckon Phillip Glennister would be a good choice from For The Love of Cars..

A few thoughts come to mind. From someone a 2 thirds her age, "nothing special" certainly isn't one.

born in 69, but I get what you are saying

Ha I never said he could drive. He also crashed recently in a race meet. But he doesn't just own his cars, he drives them. your URL is good and notes when he took ownership of then McLaren, he took his kids on a 5hr drive for a holiday. He doesn't mothball them. In fact, he crashes, has the insurance company fork out for the repair bill and then makes a hell of a profit selling on the car

I'd watch it if Matt Le Blanc hosted the show as Joey.

Imagine him in an AC Cobra or McLaren F1?... 2 words only - bankruptcy and Ambulance.

What are the 3 originals doing?
Are they changing channels and doing a show??

[DMXR6T]

Let's wait and see how the new show pans out before making judgement. I would not have guessed that Clarkson, May & Hammond would have worked out.

[Pis-ton broke]

i,m a fan of Jenny, she,s a great actor and so much more fun to watch than Angelina Jolie. i think she doesn,t take herself to seriously, how cool is that.

i,ll miss Mr Clarkson quick wit and totally inappropriate one liners, and him poking fun at the french ha,ha.

Their contract with BBC says they can't do a show about cars on television, so they are going to do a show about cars on the internet (amazon prime).

are you sure you haven't mixed up Chris Evans the movie star with Chris Evans the radio DJ?
Personally i've never heard or seen anything of 'not the real' Chris Evans. but then i don't listen to BBC radio 2.

Kath and Kim ruined Jennifer Anniston for me by pointing out how much Kel looks like Jennifer Anniston!

I think the fact is if the BBC try to keep the same direction with the show its destined to fail. The 3 made the show what it is today, well two with the addition of may...It may still be a good car show after they're gone but it won't be the comedy a lot of us watch it for.

True. I didn't know he had his own show already. I also thought he'd make a good car show host. I guess someone else did too

I think it will be all right, time will tell. I'm not going to write it off before I see it.
with Evans & Le Blanc they look to already have a comedy theme

Put it this way, what other car show is going to be better?

6 presenters..I wonder how this will go? On the plus side Chris Harris is now on board, let's hope they give him free reign to be himself.
