I'd prefer Sue Cook, as a cheeky reference to Clarkson's Partridge.

Yeah Tom D has possibly been in the unseasonable sun a bit too much.

Not at all! I have actually watched an episode of "Heading Out" from start to finish.

How does it compare to the Clarkson-written sitcom?

dunno how anyone can muster an opinion about sue perkins one way or the other...

The outspoken star also revealed he had been told he probably had cancer two days before the fracas with Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon, although he has since been given the all-clear.

It would be seen as negative whoever they picked, but they're playing it pretty much as safe as they can - veteran presenter with solid track record for relatively inventive entertainment shows on TV (at least 20 years ago) and radio.

Formerly egotistical motormouth DJ/TV personality who seems to have mellowed a bit in recent years. Recently reprised his once-popular TV show TFI Friday for a one-off special which turned into a Top Gear audition half-way through (driving round Top Gear test track, taking presentation lessons from Clarkson, interviewing Lewis Hamilton, talking guff about cars). Probably the obvious choice. He's laddish and is childishly enthusiastic about fast cars (which he owns a lot of, I believe). He used to give good* telly of the Top Gear type -laddish, jokey, idiotic banter - in the 90s.

* ymmv on whether this is actually good, but it was certainly popular

He was married to Billie Piper
Only thing I've seen him on recently is presenting the One Show, following a video segment all about a marmalade festival, catch on to the name of the town it was held in and started going on about how they have a marmalade festival there.

i will say this - he was great on GLR before getting The Big Breakfast. not had much time for him since, but his early radio stuff was fun.

True fact: at the age of 10, I was in a school performance of The Wind In The Willows with Clarkson. I played Mole to his Toad. We did it semi-improvised. I wore a black polo-necked sweater. He was quite the am-drammer in those days. It's been downhill for us both ever since.― mike t-diva, Wednesday, 25 March 2015 11:22 (five years ago) bookmarkflaglink
