A petition has been started to request that the BBC hire Alan Partridge to Replace Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear! www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-31933041It would make an interesting choice, i would love to see him interviewing the star in a reasonably price car! The Saint

Apparently all the Top Gear presenters contracts are up this year, so i could see the Beeb try and do the guest presenter(s) thing it does/did with HIGNFY and Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

There are similarities between Partridge and Clarkson's views :-
On Joni Mitchell:
"Big Yellow Taxi there by Joni Mitchell, a song in which she complains that they 'paved paradise to put up a parking lot' - a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise. Something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song."

But didn't Alan Partridge also deck his producer?
Could be 'out of the frying pan...' :D

Now that could give added impetus for the "Star in a reasonably priced car" couldn't it?

He's well genned up on motors though. I mean, he knows that Lexus is the Japanese Mercedes! He confirmed it in his conversation with Michael the work Geordie in the petrol station.
