At least he knew it wasn't working, I wonder who they'll replace him with.
I don't think they need to, the BBC may as well save the tax payers money......and they could save even more money and get rid of Rory and Eddie as well.

they should keep Harris and Le Blanc in the Studio and bring in an unknow to replace them. James May was an unknown so it can happen.

Keep Sabrina to drive fast cars and dump the rest.

I do feel for Evans. He really did put he heart into it and he is a petrol head, he loves cars.

Jesus christ, fire him or not, he's still paid by the BBC / tax-payer being Top gear or Radio 2. :headbonk:!

Is the criteria for working at the BBC and having a lot of money being a total tool?
it's a bit like polishing your car, any little bit of dirt stands out a mile. also remember the BBC is run by the government and we pay a lot of money to the beeb in Licence fees, and the BBC still want to sell the series all over the planet and also the sale of DVDs and Bluray,
Clarkson and co will only be on Amazon, how many people got Amazon, yes you will be able to watch it by other means but how many will do that?
Amazon is way behind Netflix who turned Clarkson down

I'll be watching Top Gear on BBC when/if it returns and Grand Tour on Amazon when it begins. Simples. Not sure what the issue is?!

This is the real reason he quit, before he was pushed
the BBC don't need any more crap, I heard about this on Friday, the Police have been gathering evidence for months

I believe that he jumped before being pushed but as much as I can't stand the guy I'd give him the benefit with any such allegations until proven otherwise. After the actions of others there's been a lot of bandwagon jumping...

Yes true
seems the only broadcaster to stick by their people is ITV with the 2 Corro stars, who were written out temp, but as they were found innocent were written back in

Didn't Amazon outbid Netflix? And I'm pretty sure Amazon is going to sell their shows worldwide as their streaming service isn't really well equipped for global.

And Willy Evans... true or not about those allegations he seems to be a weird fella...

Jalopnik said:
In an interview with the Sunday Times in 2005, Evans admitted his penchant for exposing himself at work.

The newspaper reported that Evans ā€œfrequently exposed himself at the offices of Ginger Media Group, which owned Virgin Radio and television shows such as TFI Friday. He would interrupt meetings by standing up to pull down his tracksuit bottoms to reveal that he was sexually aroused.ā€

At the time, Evans told the newspaper: ā€œIf you get your willy out, it’s the funniest thing in the world. Everybody laughs, everyone of our generation. I wouldn’t do it in front of my mum, for example. Girls love it; boys -ā€˜Oh, I can’t believe you did that’. It also takes the night to a new level. I actually haven’t done it for a while. But I will do it again.ā€

I would have thought just turning up at a meeting would qualify him as exposing himself... he doesn't need to drop his trousers (which would likely be tucked into his boots) as he is actually a complete d:censored:k...
