Reported in yesterdays Daily Telegraph suggest that BBC2's Top Gear is to end prematurely, see here! .

If its true and the programme has to end, then I'm affraid all that we petrolheads will have on the box is Ch5's Fifth Gear, arrgggghhhh dont think I can take much more of VBH. :( :eek:

I read that over the next three years they will be phasing out the "airfield activities" and they had applied for planning permission to build a racetrack near clarksons house but local residents have objected, Cant get into the telegraph site but can get into the News of the world, great security my work has

Local press around Enstone has been reporting they wanted to move there for over a year - so why have they only just applied for planning permission?

Surely it would be cheaper for them to film the studio stuff in Birmingham or London in an existing studio and rent track time from someone like Prodrive or Lotus ??

I'd read that they'd applied to use an airfield near clarksons house for the series.....
