The Stigg
Well, having watched topgear tonight, apparently its Schumacher. Personally I thought it was mike Golden or possibly Jimbo Shortt

Re: The Stigg
the star in the reasonable priced car lap was brilliant! Would make sense as Ben Collins could do the rally style cars but driving a super F1 style car would be the domain of someone like Schumacher..........or have I just put WAY to much thought into this!!

Re: The Stigg
He drives for Ferrari, so perhaps they only agreed to loan the car if he did the lap??
Just a gnats knacker to the left!

Re: The Stigg

Re: The Stigg
I have to admit to having an informal bet on the helmet coming off and it being Jimmy Krankie or Michael Gamborn

Re: The Stigg
Gambon would have been a classic. Or Maureen from The Driving School

Re: The Stigg
I always thought The Stig was Ben Edwards :(
I heard Ross Kemp has signed a new contract with Sky.
Apparently he's added the entertainment package.
I have friends who swear they dream in colour...It's just a pigment of their imagination.

However one of the reasons you never see the fast lap Stigs out side the cars is so you can't judge their height against the car and therefore see they are different
You'll be telling me next it's all off the cuff banter and they just do everything by the seat off their pants and hope nothing goes wrong
Smoke and Mirrors that's all it is albeit very well done
Intergeri I think that is the first time I've ever read one of your post's that isn't a demotavational poster
Nice one :DWe should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
The shame will always be with us.

Re: The Stigg
There are a few 'Stigs', depending on who is available. Two regular ones have been 'let go' after they outed themselves. The latest, Ben Collins, never spoke because he had a strong West Country accent. Originally Posted by Smiler_1985

Although Collins is reported to have "outed" himself a few months ago Originally Posted by bigeye
