There seems to be an awful lot of hoohah about the fact that Top Gear’s Stig wants to write his autobiography and tell of his time as TV most popular unidentified secret racing driver. The BBC want to take him to court, claiming that he signed a confidentiality agreement, although the Ben Collins has been revealed as being the Stig by the papers so does that even count now anyway?
Personally, I think they’re all taking this way too seriously, and are missing the real point. There is a perfect opportunity for an X Factor style “Hunt the Stig” show. How many applicants would you get for being Top Gear’s Stig? It would be amazing, and you would have TV dynamite if you were to add the magic ingredients of Jeremy Clarkson (Simon Cowell but a bit sharper), James May who could be Louis Walsh, kinda dim but nice and Rickard Hammond, aka the Hamster, ideal in the Cheryl Cole/ Dannii thingey role.
Isn’t this perfect? I can’t think why the BBC haven’t come up with it already. Or maybe they have, and all of this court stuff is merely a smokescreen. Anyway, here is today’s t-shirt: I am Stig. Perfect, I am getting mine right now!
