Top Gear 2.0 Is Struggling Even Before Airing

It Sounds Like The New Top Gear Is Completely Falling Apart

We haven't even seen the first episode of Chris Evans' new Top Gear, but according to reports the show is failing after being beset by fallings out, an unqualified production staff and meddling bosses


According to reports in The Sun, the show’s team have struggled to put a show together. The main problem seems to arise from the fact that the BBC want new Top Gear to be as safe as possible and not court controversy in the way the old show did. This has resulted in bosses ‘meddling’ with production and not giving Chris Evans the freedom he desires.

It’s no secret that the show’s rebirth has hit some hurdles. Last month it was reported that executive producer Lisa Clark and script editor Tom Ford had both quit the show following news Chris Harris and Sabine Schmitz could take up roles as presenters.

BBC 2 controller Kim Shillinglaw is apparently making life difficult for the teams, as she will not let crews get too carried away with themselves, much to the frustration of “control freak” Evans.
