Default MPH show still going ahead?

Hi. I got through the post yesterday a letter from MPH show saying Clarkson, Hammond and May were going to be in the MPH show in London in November. I was wondering if the event is still going ahead because there was no information about if it is or not.

I was also told I get £5.00 because I went the year before, w00t images/smilies/lol.gif

I haven't received a press release as yet. I guess they're waiting to see how well Richard recovers before making a decision.

I didn't get a fiver yesterday, I hope I get one today though because I'll go to an extra show!

MPH is still definately going ahead, although they couldn't confirm the line up. I am sure Jeremy & James will be doing it. If Hamster is better, we'd love to see him there. If not, as long as he's not substituted by Quentin (*does a bit of sick) Wilson, then I'm sure all the fans will be happy!

QW? *claws at face and starts moaning in blood curdling terror*

Oh My God. Please don't tempt fate with that self - righteous imbecile!

I suspect QW may not be on JC's list of his 100 favourite people at the mo anyway. So fingers crossed they choose someone like Steve Coogan. Now he would be a good stand in! But anything would be better, Tiffany Dell (as JC likes to call him) or Jodie Kidd. But please not QW!!!!

Richard has now been taken off the billing for MPH and they are now using a celebrity guest. Jeremy and James will still be presenting

Download the showreel video, from the menu on the left. That should explain it better than anything on here.

That's just not fair. You Brits get all the good stuff when it comes to cars (which is kind of weird with all the green parties running around). First Goodwood which seems just amazing and now this........I want some too images/smilies/sad.gif
Ah well have fun anyways images/smilies/wink.gif

So quite a distance images/smilies/lol.gif

I am probably going to book tickets too for around that date. It should be good because Jeremy will just pick on James images/smilies/thumbsup.gif
