Comedian Jimmy Carr is reported to be in discussions with BBC executives about hosting a reboot of Top Gear.
The reports connect the possible revival to the show’s earlier shelving, but they do not provide additional details on how or when a new series would be produced. One outlet references that Top Gear was put on hold several years ago, linking the pause to major news around the programme rather than giving new reporting about the circumstances of any current negotiations.
While both sources describe the same core claim—Carr and BBC bosses discussing a Top Gear relaunch—neither specifies terms of any agreement, confirms whether the reboot has been formally approved, or details Carr’s involvement beyond hosting.
