Everybody’s talking about: Top Gear
Matt Le Blanc has revealed he didn’t hear that Chris Evans was leaving the Top Gear reboot until he read about it in the paper. Ah here. He told The Sun:
I haven’t heard from him since – which is his choice. I saw the stories that we weren’t getting along and there was a row between us, but we were fine. I liked Chris Evans. I think my schedule is tough, but he was doing a radio show every morning… Maybe that was what it was. I honestly don’t know.
Or flick over for…
