My lord you don't understand popular appeal do you?

How about a petition to replace Oisin Tymon with Quentin Tarantino.

Guy Martin , truly bonkers and gets my vote every time.
Anyone who is balmy enough to own an engine from a spitfire , straps it to a trailer and sits behind it revving it to the point of taking off is the man for the job.

He's even more irritating than Clarkson.

I once watched a documentary on YouTube about the Isle of Man TT races and was overawed by the skill and bravery/stupidity of the riders. Jaw open stuff. Guy Martin featured. A great rider, but blooming hard to listen to.

I cant stand Guy Martin. I've seen, at most, ten minutes worth of him on TV and i'll not thank you for a further ten seconds worth of him.

He repeats himself a lot doesn't he?

I never got to see his engine run. I've extended my exposure to him by two and a half minutes. He'd kill Top Gear if you can kill something that's currently dead.

 

[Shut Up Legs]

If he stood closer to that propeller, he might even get a decent haircut.

I like him in small doses, but he is irritating and I couldn't see him fronting anything that didn't need a lot of editing first. Certainly not the 'live' recording of TG.

What makes people think that a truck mechanic who cycles to work and races motorcycles on 'road circuits' for a hobby would be a good presenter for a car show.

is he not a channel 4 man through and through , must admit he would be good

i reckon Chris Evans will get it but i hope not

He wouldn't be good because he can't speak without rambling and repeating himself. Like @Piemaster said, it could be fine if he could be edited but he'd be a disaster when delivering a live performance in the studio. I don't think that he could operate in a presentation team and he'd not fit with the remainder of the Top Gear crew.

I'm not over enamoured with Clarkson but I don't think that Top Gear would be as entertaining without him and perhaps it's best left dead should Clarkson and the BBC go their separate ways.

Sorry, not in same class as the 'Three Hammondos'
