A new breed of Stig for Top Gear show

[John S]

A new mark 3 Stig raised on a farm, see the video evidence here.

Hilarious

Very very funny. 

Can't wait for the new series to start.

I see the old stig (Ben Collins) is now on Fifth Gear (Friday night 7-30pm Ch5 for our UK members). Should have kept the helmet on IMO.

Great promo - but do we really have to wait 4 mnths?

I hear Heidfeld is looking for a new gig - we'll have to see how short the new guy is

[Williamsfan]

I loved that video, made me laugh a lot!  Can't wait for the next series.

Was that an all-new bit? I don't recall seeing it before. Is this Fifth Gear show mentioned any good?

Fifth Gear has had a few crappy series over the years with strange presenters and odd formats. Although more serious than Top Gear the latest series is much better with no less than three racing drivers and the lovely Vicky Butler Henderson. The three race drivers are Ben Collins the old Top Gear Stig, Jason Plato the British Touring car champion and Tiff Needell who has a long racing career and is generally a nutter. Oh and Johny Smith who is the resident geek.

Don't know if this will play outside the UK but it's worth a try. If it does it will lead you to all the episodes.

Back when Speed Channel was still the much, much better Speedvision, they used to carry 5th Gear.

Thanks guys, it looks like 5th Gear may be worth a look. I queued up a bunch of shows for downloading from the usual sources and will watch them when i get back home.

Cheers
