I think this fat man is just ok, may be not as funny as the other two guys, but I can feel his anthusiasm to his work, anybody know the reason why this man was replaced by caption slow? Or it just his personal reason?
Wilman and Clarkson always wanted May as the third presenter (he had featured in the last series of the old format of TG) but he was unsure the new format would work so Dawe was drafted in instead.
Once May saw the first series he changed his mind and joined the team so Dawe was surplus to requirements.
If that's what happened, that's tough for Dawe. Still: The right decision in my mind. That guy just didn't fit in half the cars he was supposed to test.
I thought May was not offered the Job till the 2nd series?I always go the impression he was broke before TG.Wilman and Clarkson always wanted May as the third presenter (he had featured in the last series of the old format of TG) but he was unsure the new format would work so Dawe was drafted in instead.

The only segment I remember with Jason in it is the old VW Golf test with the green colored VW. Jason wasn't fit for TG.
As far as I know James was asked to apply for the job for the second series, but had to be talked into doing so. He had given up his job on driven to go to Old Top Gear before, but then was axed after one series. He probably still hold some grudge about that.
I thought he was let go from driven and in fact it was a magazine Job he had to give up?Fixed.
Anyhoo, Jason Dawe: Reason #1-Eleventy Million Why Shellygrrl Has Never Watched a Full Episode of the First Series of Current Top Gear.
