Top Gear: Jeremy Clarkson and co-hosts sign seven-figure pay deal 
Top Gear presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond have signed a new three-year deal to continue fronting the hit BBC2 car show.
The new deal is likely to involve a substantial windfall for Clarkson and the programme's producer Andy Wilman because BBC Worldwide has taken full control of their lucrative Bedder 6 joint venture, which owns the commercial rights to the show and which has paid the duo millions of pounds in dividends.
blah blah blah.....

Well, at least there's another car vs. transportation challenge. Those are my favorite ones, & we haven't had one since season season 13 (car vs. bike vs. train).
European Top Gear race now over. Me in a car. Hammond and May on public transport. No-one was killed.

Can't wait for that! May & Clarkson are such polar opposites, that it always makes for amusing dialogue when they're together.
