I think I have seen every show since Ben Collins outed himself on Fifth Gear as The Stig, but haven't seen him since?

what happened there?

Can't have had much of a job if he only appeared the once.

To me it just seemed like a pretty petty and lame attempt at One-upmanship by Fifth Gear

I just assumed he got canned or decided to leave of his own volition because he isn't exactly a natural speaking to camera. No disrespect to his driving ability but he was somewhat wooden on screen.

Poor old Benny Collins. I wonder if he ever regrets outing himself as The Stig.

That wasn't real sympathy by the way. :p
