Rappy Veteran Posted June 30, 2008 Veteran Share Posted June 30, 2008 I am not a big fan of the couples star segment, I much preferred just one person.

MightyJordan Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 I'm not really liking the SiaRPC segments so far. The only good one was JLC and Alan Carr. I want to see JK and Jodie Kidd! That would be a brilliant one! Also, I'm disappointed that they didn't put the CLK Black round the test track. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/644920-series-11-top-gear/page/3/#findComment-589520728 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rappy Veteran Posted July 4, 2008 Veteran Share Posted July 4, 2008 James May and Richard Hammond could leave Top Gear after failing to agree contract terms, according to a report.The pair, whose contracts expire at the end of the month, are said to want pay deals more in line with co-host Jeremy Clarkson, which the BBC may not be prepared to meet. "Internally there is talk that there might be a chance for the first time that there could be a break up of the team, it has got that bad," MediaGuardian quotes a source as saying. "There has been a lot of pulling out of hair, a Mexican stand-off. For the first time it is possible that one or both might leave." The source added: "They don't want to accept second status any more. There has been a meltdown in negotiations."

Beastage Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 To be honest , James May is the real star of the show, Clarkson is just an old man ranting about stuff lately. Anyway the 2nd episode was good because it was an episode about cars... and well made all in all.

Sethos Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Yes, Jeremy Clarkson may be the host of the show and get a lot of attention, but without May or Hammond this show would be a dead duck - Kinda like Clarksons DVDs ...

what Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2247815/To...oring-show.html Mr May laughed off suggestions that he had not signed his new contract because he was angry about Mr Clarkson's new salary."The only reason I haven't signed my contract yet is because it has not yet been finalised," he told The Daily Telegraph. "The current one doesn't expire until the end of July. I'm sure a new one will be sorted out soon." He added: "I'm not stomping around about Jeremy's contract with BBC Worldwide. Quite frankly, I couldn't give a **** about it."
