I think it's safe to say that James has officially stopped being "the other bloke on Top Gear".

May in a proper suit and tie?

I've been saying they picked the wrong Bond in Daniel Craig, they shoulda just picked James.

According to the Radio Times he went up a whole 18 inches for five seconds! Perhaps Hammond should get one.

LOL! How about a Bond spoof for Comic Relief with James as 007 for starters? Clarkson as the main villain and Hamster as his evil sidekick?

I guess the others would disagree, though, and we'd end up with Jeremy as 007, Richard as the villain and James as Moneypenny...

You're probably right, though I think Jeremy himself would insist on being 007 and James would be either M or Q (most likely Q-can you imagine the back and forth between those two?), while Hammond would be Moneypenny.

Someone from Fifth Gear would be the villain. ETA: or the Stig. Can you imagine Stig being a baddy? Creepy...

Oh no, Jeremy would make a horrible 007 with those yellow teeth. He should definitely be the villain.

I guess Hamster could be Felix Leiter, since he can pull off cowboy boots and stuff.

Clarkson would be Jaws (he's got the height and he could have gold teeth to mimic his yellow ones)



and Hammond would be Nick Nack of course (cowboy boots are optional)

Agreed about Q.
That only leaves the Bond girl...

James can play two roles. After all, he was in the top ten sexiest female racing drivers of all time.

I can so imagine that!
James as Q would rant on for hours about the gadgets and then warn 00Clarkson to handle them with care, and Jeremy would go and break them all.

But she doesn't like Aston Martins so she'd be a useless Bond girl.

It'll have to be Fiona Bruce instead.
