No. 5 celebrity that U.K. men most want to have a date with: The Top Gear crew?

No, really. At least according to Madbid.com, a British auction site (£1,000 cash for £8.06) that arranges celebrity auctions for charity. First, which celebrity topped the list? The sultry, three-kinds of sexy Megan Fox, of course. Second place was British singer/soccer wife Cheryl Cole, third place was Angelina Jolie and fourth place went to Katie Price, sort of a younger, trashier English version of Pamela Anderson with much larger breast implan

As Top Gear Series 10 DVD hits, BBC begins testing children's and travel-sized versions of magazine

Depending on where you call home, we have different news on the multimedia juggernaut that is Top Gear. If you live Stateside, the biggest news is that Season #10 of the series arrived on store shelves yesterday, so you can now relive Jeremy Clarkson terrorizing his BBC office mates with the diminutive Peel P50 or set the African Challenge in £1500 bangers on 'repeat' without fragging your DVR's hard drive.

Comic Relief to auction ridealong with Stig

We still don't know who the White Stig is, and he could be replaced by the Black Stig, the Purple Stig, or the Rainbow Stig pretty soon. But before he goes, you can win a ride with him around the Top Gear test track. Red Nose Day is a fundraising event put on by the Br

Top Gear's Stig Revealed!

Fans of Top Gear might want to prepare themselves for another Stig death soon. When "Black Stig" Perry McCarthy revealed himself, Clarkson, Hammond and May offed him. Now, according to the UK's Telegraph, the "White Stig" has apparently ended the mystery, revealing himself as 33 year-old Ben Collins. Collins has raced professionally in everything from NASCAR to LeMans, and most recently served as Agent 007's double for sequences of Quantum of Solace that required fancy wheel wo

Top Gear Australia replacing Charlie Cox?

Anyone who's been watching the original Top Gear knows it took a bit of switcheroo to get the chemistry right before things really took off (James May replaced the rotundish Jason Dawe after Series 1 of the current show concluded), and TG Australia is no different. Charlie Cox (the bloke on the left) is reportedly leaving the young show due to commitments in Britain, and word

NBC working on Top Gear remake for the States

Bionic Woman. Knight Rider. And now....Top Gear? NBC, America's remake network, has ordered a pilot of an Americanized Top Gear. Expect to see all the usual Top Gear conventions, including three presenters; a masked Stig-like driver; a private test track; taping in a hangar before a live audience; and (probably D-List) celebs driving midsize cars. Unfortunately, you won't see the program's British hosts, Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond. And thi

Video: Jeremy Clarkson reviews G-Wiz

Below the fold is a video of Jeremy Clarkson, of the TV show Top Gear, reviewing the all electric G-Wiz. The review of the G-Wiz starts at 2 minutes 45 seconds after Jeremy makes fun of French sport cars. Highlights from the review of the G-Wiz include a race between the G-Wiz and a table, which ends very much like Top Gear's race between Jason and the Th!nk electric car.

15,000 people want Clarkson as Prime Minister

Jeremy Clarkson has been a staunch critic against, well, almost everything. His weekly editorials at the Times (occasionally peppered with a car review) have given Jezza a mouthpiece to rant and rave against everything from environmental degradation to speed cameras, and he's secured an ardent fan-base while doing so. Some people even take him seriously, which has spawned a page at the Government's Petition website where close to 15,000 people have pledged that Clarkson should take the helm by b

Top Gear in trouble over salt flat stunt

Top Gear has earned the ire of environmentalists yet again, this time for driving cars over the Makgadikgadi salt plains in Botswana. All three presenters of the British car show drove across the plains while filming a segment, leaving trails that could remain there for decades. Usually, you are only allowed to go over if you're on a quad bike and must still remain in single file.

Create your own Top Gear Cool Wall and butt heads with Clarkson

A big part of the fun in watching a Top Gear episode is yelling at the TV to let the lads know how you feel about their ratings. Cars they love might seem lame to you and cars they loathe may be sitting in your driveway. Interactive television may be improving, but we doubt they actually hear our rants rattling the cable lines. Not that our opinions mean anything to them anyhow, but that need to express ourselves can be overwhelming at times.
