Mmm, I was just thinking that as well. Would do no harm with features, might even be nice to see him engineer some stunts here or there...and he'd probably be ok for a chat on the news sofa too...get him some vital experience.

Whatabout the guy from the police/bike/no10 furore?

Cyclist, so the commies here can like him, Tory bastard sneering at the oiks, so the rest of us can like him.

Thing is, it's not just Clarkson who's gone. It's the trio, around whom the entire edifice that TG became was constructed. I really can't see how Guy Martin, Chris Evans or anyone else could replace JC as 'team leader', and recreate the very particular dynamic that team had evolved. Now he's gone, I really don't see how the other two can stay. And assembling a new threesome who could achieve anything like what they had going would be no mean feat. The scale of the challenge goes some way to explaining why the BBC were quite so reluctant to give JC his marching orders.

What about Danny Goffey inheriting the mantle from his dad?

Might be too busy propping Pete Docherty and / or Coombes up...but then again, he's not so young or free anymore and his teeth probably aren't so white and clean, so he might fancy a career change...his elbows and forearms must be hurting after all these years, so he might welcome that. Possibilities are endless, I suppose.
