The facts are of course that the new series of Top Gear is, and remains, axed by the BBC bosses with no current plans for the show's re-introduction at any point in the future.
"the corporation can not confirm the return of Top Gear or any other future projects"

I'm not "clinging" to anything, its plain to see that Top Gear is returning. You can't accept that because it doest fall into your "auntie beed/nanny state/NL" diatribe.Stop selectively quoting to back up your failing and flawed arguments, and accept the fact that Top Gear is back.

Who give's a **** about his bet
Can we stop posting about the rodent, I think the outpouring of grief over Diana was easier to bare than the **** we've had to endure with Hammond.....

In that case you agree with what I have been saying all along.They may eventually be forced to 'unaxe' Top Gear due to sustained public pressure, but they have certainly made a determined effort to exploit Hammond's misfortune by removing it from our screens and then attempting to replace it with content they would prefer us to be subjected to (disabled 'heroes' crossing the desert in wheelchairs for example, and archive of Hamster hosting nice harmless 'nerd' competitions that nobody watched first time round) In other words, it's hardly me that has an agenda.
When I see the closing credits of the first programme to confirm it has returned in it's original form, and not some watered down replica of previous series then I'll accept it's back.
For now though, that day is as far away as ever.

They cant "unaxe" it, as it was never axed. The only person who ever said it was axed is you. Again, more spin.
And if you think we'll ever see it back it in orginal form, your plainly nuts.
William Woolard, Tony Mason and Chris Goffey co are clearly past it, and in some cases dead.
Are we dizzy enough yet, or do you want some more?

But it is currently axed - or 'postponed indefinitely' to quote the BBC. You can be as pedantic as you like, but it means the same thing.
And if you think we'll ever see it back it in orginal form, your plainly nuts.

We all know that resorting to pedandic remarks is akin to thowing in the towel, because you've run out of ideas...

Strange that if you look on this page on the same website
Top Gear | Top Gear on BBC Two
It states clearly:
"Top Gear is currently off air - and dates for the new series are yet to be confirmed. "
Therefore this January date and time is still only speculation on the part of the optimistic and was probably fictitiously add by some ambitious hack based on hear say.

UB, in your opinion, do you think that a new series Top Gear will be on our screens in January?
Simple yes or no will suffice. Like, NL I bet I don't get a simple yes/no though
