I can see Harris either leavening or going a long way with TG.

Paddy might make it work, Flintoff won’t last beyond three series.

I can't see Harris on Bake Off , he's more likely to go back to the mags 😂

I'll be watching it, laughing at the ones cutting off their nose to spite their face.

Enjoy your light entertainment show with a vague car theme. I’m sure you’ll love hearing a cricketer explaining the driving experience of the next Ferrari hypercar.

Formula for every episode:

Harris tests a thing seriously
Freddie/Paddy/Monkey dick about in a caravan and/or 3 shit old cars part 1
Star in a reasonably priced stolen format
Freddie or Paddy test driving a car reading words off a script whilst pretending they’re driving fast a la the Chris Evans series
Freddie/Paddy/Monkey dick about in a caravan and/or 3 shit old cars part 2

The best bits will be when the cricketer and dating show host wax lyrical about the unusual cars a production assistant bought for them during the challenge episodes.

I'm just imagining Paddy walking up to his first review car...

"Ooooooohhh, int she a reet Beauty"...

and thinking of watching something else. Of the two, talking about cars, I think I'd find Flintoff, less offensive - we'll see. I'll probably still watch... :lol:

Ooh, do you think? It started as Top Gear's format, and since the former TG presenters came up with it under contract to the Beeb it belongs to the Beeb.

IIRC, it belonged to a production company that Clarkson and Wilman sold to the BBC. But facts schmacts.

If they were after a hairy arsed Northerner you wonder why Guy Ritchie was not on their radar! Actually scratch that, Guy Martin FFS! Need more coffee.

Northernness definitely cranks up a big ol' notch once you get north of the M62! Rolls those oRs.

Monkey Harris is smiling in the pic at least, that's a start.
