![Bugatti Bird-gate Followup: Driver identity revealed <b>[*UPDATE:</b> Now with actual crash video!]](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/11/bugatti-veyron-swim-1258147199_143x85.jpg)
We've been lied to: New episodes of Top Gear actually not coming June 15
Remember when we told you that Top Gear would be returning on June 15? Well, um... Top Gear isn't returning on June 15. In fact, not only is Top Gear not returning on June 15, but there is no word on when it will return. And not only is there no word on when it will return, but there isn't expected to be a full run of episodes whenever it does come back -- six shows are supposedly on slate. And those six episodes apparently won't be in HD, for any of you 1080i-philes who rocked the plasma purchase hoping you'd get a better shot of The Stig. So it's not quite time for Taps yet... but we're going to go sit in a tub of chocolate to console ourselves for a while... Thanks for the tip, Viper007Bond![Source: Final Gear]

That ruined so much more than just one day :(
Come on BBC, I'm a bit tired of watching Season 10 over and over and over and over...

Exactly what I was wondering.

Would be great, but I sincerely doubt it.
Americans need laugh tracks and Ryan Seacrest to have an entertaining show apparently.
Brit humor is extremely subtle and Clarkson would be burned at the stake for as many gay comments as he makes.

Not sure if this show could be more irrelevant.

Not as irrelevant as your comment.

Not unlike your post.

I hate when someone spams stupid links in their posts.

Grrrr...tell you what, Ramsey. Just leave us out for now on the alleged TG return update...till things get credibly sorted out coming directly from the BBC folks.

I wish I could get Top Gear on Netflix. Watching it on YouTube is alright but...
