    The Stig 'to be killed off'
    Fri Sep 03 12:16PM by Chloe Turgis



    'Top Gear' presenter James May has claimed that The Stig would be killed off before being replaced by a different driver, reports The Sun.

    The news follows the revelation that the show's current mystery driver has been identified as SAS hero Ben Collins, after a court battle allowed him to publish an autobiography unmasking him as The Stig.

    May also suggested that the driver could be ousted in a similar way to his predecessor Perry McCarthy, when his identity was revealed back in 2003.

    He said that he would probably team up with fellow 'Top Gear' hosts Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond to beat up The Stig, before taking back his famous white outfit and helmet.

    The 47-year-old presenter told The Sun: "There was black-overalls Stig, who had to be dealt with by Andy.

    "And then we got white-overalls Stig, who will be dealt with.

    "We start some filming next week. We've had some thoughts - driving to The Stig's house and nailing his head to the table was one.

    "And getting our overalls back because they're not his.

    "And those stupid, poncy shoes he wears. They're ours. And the gloves."

    'Top Gear' is due to come back for a new series later this year.

    I'd say Ben Collins had had enough of being The Stig and wanted the publicity and fame that he felt he was duly entitled to . Clarkson and the other 2 boys have made a pretty penny out of the show and I'd say Ben was pissed off at their success . Anyhoo looking forward to seeing his demise in the next few months , and wonder what colour the new Stig will be ?

    Surely the Stig should be allowed to make personal appearances etc to make his own money.

    I reckon hot-rod red would be a good colour for the next Stig!
