Haaaalelulia!
White stig's identity was revealed not so long ago as Ben Collins, so rather than buy a new fireproof suit, they've probably dusted off the old black one and put a new unidentified driver in it!

I read that the white stig likes pink daisies. And rainbows.

There's also a new James May show straight after Top Gear on BBC2. I love his shows, but most of my friends hate them!

I'm chuffed. Spent the last few weeks enthralled by 'The Incredible Human Journey' and I was upset that it had finished, then the 'ambitious but rubbish' mob hove back into view to save my Sunday evening. Perfect timing from Aunty Beeb.

Although the show themselves never admitted it was Ben Collins did they?

I'm guessing that this is Bratty's ever so subtle way of commenting on the fact that the show is hosted by three men... *sigh*  Also... Seriously? You've got friends?!?    :etc: Only joking, Peter. _________________John Vella BSc (Hons), PGCE - Still the official forum prankster and crude remarker Sorry I'll behave now. Promise

I hadn't heard that the Stig's identity had been revealed. One quote demonstrates that the show's producers are far from impressed.
I can't see that it's worth getting in a strop about. While his identity is supposed to be a secret, it is one that every Top Gear viewer wants to know and the truth is bound to get out in the end, one way or another.
Having seen perhaps every Top Gear on Dave anywhere from two to six, seven or more times, it will be nice to see a new series again.

I thought he was 'uncovered' during Hamster's accident investigation. It named Ben Collins as the show's resident performance test driver, or some other ill-disguised title.

I just thought that I'd bump this back to the top for those who didn't know or who had forgotten.
My wife (yes, she's a fan as well) only found out last night when she saw an advert and I haven't seen an ad' at all.

So I'm not the only one missing BBC ads for stuff I'd actually watch? Maybe if they cut down on the dopey ones telling me I was watching the BBC... _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:
