Top Gear’s Future In Question?

Posted March 19th, 2007 at 06:53 GMT by Viper007Bond in Top Gear

I had been holding off on posting about all of this until we were able to confirm all of the following, but it seems like this just isn’t going to happen for at least a while, so I’ve decided to just go ahead and post what we’re heard.

Apparently the BBC’s lease on Dunsfold, the track / airstrip where Top Gear is filmed, is up and they will be unable to renew it as developers are planning on turning it into a housing development. This of course means that Top Gear will have to move to another location.

There also has been word by Clarkson in his column that Top Gear won’t be back at all (the BBC denies this), but we don’t know if he’s saying this to try to get more money in his contract negotiations that are supposedly going on or if this is really the case.

Simply put, there’s a lot of rumors and such going on, so we don’t know anything for sure, but when we do, we’ll make sure to let you all know.

And as always, if you have news tips, please let us know.
