Transport 2000 suggested alternative employment for Clarkson

petergun · April 14th, 2005, 04:06 PM

PistonHeads is running this fab article about the BBC being pressured to replace Top Gear.

"Transport 2000 suggested alternative employment for Clarkson. "If we must have Jeremy Clarkson on the television, let's give him something useful to do, such as trying out public transport or road-testing new bicycles. Perhaps he would like to drive a bus; he'd find it just as much fun as a Ferrari," the group said."

I for one would love to see Jeremy review a bus.

Yeah that would be....fantastic:

Jeremy: "It does 0-60 in.....umm....well, nevermind, but now let's see what the Stig can do with it!"

Now if they're using it to jump or crush something, then that's more like it images/smilies/wink.gif

Jeremy: " Whoa! look at the massive understeer in Chicago!"

A new record! *reads* Greyhound Bus, 5.12.05

HAHAHA Classic
Actually if Clarkson and Co knew about this, I wouldn't be surprised if they made fum of them sometime in the next series.

ranger_dood · April 15th, 2005, 12:34 AM

I'm sure they know....

Gobbo · April 15th, 2005, 01:50 AM

No doubt they will I reckon... would be nice if they did a segment seeing which older cars can best withstand an oak tree or something stupid like that just to put the wind up the hippie movements.

I'm sure they did too, because the episode right after the 'Discovery up the mountain' one Jeremy mentions somehting about complaint letters concerning the damage to the mountain, maybe not this particular letter, though possible.

I love Jeremy for his constant and whitty smack downs on the enviro wheenies images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Now that would be nice, where can we write to these guys and give them suggestions, because I think a lot of people here have very good ideas for the show that the BBc is missing.

They already did that, they jumped motorcycles with a double-decker bus. images/smilies/lol.gif

Jeremy & the crew know about it - This is from his sunday times article, last weekend, about the Peugot 1007.

I think the sparks may start to fly - I can't wait to see the fallout when Jeremy rips into Transport 2000!
