There is now a petition online to stop the BBC having a knee jerk reaction and banning Top Gear. www.petitiononline.com/tg100/petition.html There are groups, such as Transport 2000, who were looking to close this down before Richard's accident as it is said to glamorise speed and influence drivers "yobbish" behaviour on public roads. If we can't let people distinguish between entertainment and reality, where will this end? Banning all televised motorsport? How long before racing sims are tarnished with the same brush? If you would like to help ensure Top Gear does not get pulled by the BBC due to influence from pressure groups then please sign the petition. Cheers Tony
