    Awe man... why Hamster? He's not Mr. "POWAAAAH" like Clarkson, so why'd he get stuck doing it?

    I figured it would be the Stig. May have to find something to launch over(?) a caravan in his honour.

    That's no good, I hope he makes a full recovery. Top Gear is a great show James, Jeremy, and Richard have such a great rapport together.

    Putting a TV presenter who is not really a highly trained driver in a 300 MPH jet car seems like a somewhat poorly thought out idea.
