Althoug I cannot deny my curiosity I feel dissapinted that the secret is out. Who is at fault here, the Stig himself or the publisher?
I watch top gear but even when people used to ask years ago on here and we got the answer Ben Collins then I'd think 'oh right' didnt make me get more sleep at night. Just my opinion, sorry if you took it wrong way :-)
I believe some of the headlines about 'BBC wasting public money fighting publication of the book' have come in Murdoch publications. By a curious coincidence, not only is Murdoch a commercial rival of the BBC but one of his companies is publishing the book. So the more controversy they can stir up the better for them. From the beeb's point of view, if someone is breaching secrecy undertakings then they're right to try to stop it; the programme makes a lot of money, as jake says.
I tort I thaw a puthy cat, I did, I did. I agree with you about Top Gear, Emmerdale is
much better and funnier! Hubby reckons the stig is just a gimmick thing like when they blur the faces of some of the cops on police interceptors,
cupid, I'm sure you're right. The thing is, it keeps people talking about the show, and that's what the BBC want. But I expect they'll just dress up a new Stig, maybe in red this time, if they haven't already.
Chuck, posting a na na nana na "Top gear is rubbish" type answer counts as an insult.
Anyway I was not angry becuase 4getmenot and spoc didn't like TG, I was angry because they felt the need to pi55 on someone elses bonfire unnecessarily. You don't like it fine just don't post at all. You don't see me having a go whenever a soap question comes up.
