Default Jezza to return to top gear

I read in the sun yesterday that jezza is supposed to be returning to top gear, apparently the bbc dont want to loose the amount of money the show used to rake in and are therefore making a u turn on their decision.

Hopefully on his return theyll make the show even better than before, but that said i did read it in the local tabloid so maybe its all a load of crap.

Thoughts?

I agree some people are just too loose with their inability to type lose instead of loose, it seems it is a lost art and I think in losing that important difference we are worse off ( or of )

Standard reaction is a barrage of insults but people who get them confused; I look at a post that spells "lose" as "loose" and I think "retard." I'm sure many others do as well.
My six year old son doesn't get it wrong. Nor should you.

Don't think so as these remaining episodes that we didn't get to see were going to be edited and shown at a later date, as stated by the BBC. I'm sure this will include the challenge partly filmed at Japfest last year.

it was in the Star( so has to be true) but after Hammond and May turned down the £9 million to carry on that the BBC had softened on the idea of his return, they quoted he was never sacked.

I look at a lot of your posts and think what a pr1ck, however i refrain from commenting because i have other things in my life to be getting on with, instead of being like you and trying to make myself look big and clever on a forum because i have a small d1ck.

Oh and its anymore, 1 word not any more

First rule of "correcting" someone; be correct. You aren't - you're a retard.

Thanks for your attempt though; nice to see someone trying to be clever.

Shown later in the year ....


Read "Christmas special", guaranteed to have ratings toppeed

No, the director general is the one who sacked him ....... well technically said his contract would not be reviewed. He categorically said that Jeremy crossed a line and that he had to go. To retract that decision now without any reason other than "we don't want to lose the money TG brings in" would totally undermine his position.

Jeremy hit one of the show's producers. He admitted the incident to his line manager and that was when the disciplinary started.

They'd rather pull the plug on BBC3 to recoup the losses than re-employ Jez
