Jimmy Carr is an obnoxious moron who thinks he's "funny", but in
reality is just another loud-mouthed, swearing idiot who riuns
everything he's on and makes a complete ass of himself (especially with
his stupid donkey-laugh). :-(



Jimmy Carr 'in talks to host Top Gear reboot'
---------------------------------------------
Jimmy Carr is reportedly in talks to host a Top Gear reboot.

The long-running BBC show was shelved in 2022, after Andrew 'Freddie'
Flintoff was involved in a horrific car crash - but Carr is now in
talks about hosting a reboot.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Production have their sights set
on Jimmy, he's the ideal host to take the show into a new era and
revive Top Gear. He's keen to work on something mainstream after
spending so many years fronting comedy panel shows.

"He's a real car buff, too, so it would be a passion project."

BBC bosses are also looking for new talent that might complement
Carr on the show.

The insider explained: "Casting directors are now working to find
talent to join him in the new-look ensemble.

"Bosses are considering a woman and online celebrities to
complement Jimmy."

Flintoff sustained serious injuries while shooting an episode of
Top Gear in late 2022.

The former England cricketer - who suffered facial and rib injuries
in the crash - subsequently admitted that he struggled to overcome
the experience.

Speaking on Freddie Flintoff's Field Of Dreams: Ultimate Test, he
shared: "It was, what - 18 months ago? And you know, I've suffered
with things like depression in the past before, but this time was
different. I didn't know if I had it in me to carry on, not that
I wanted to die or anything like that, I just didn't know if I had
it in me, and that took a while.

"The one thing, I think, getting quite deep here, but the one thing
you just want to be is happy in yourself, and try and be accepting
of yourself of what you are. It took me a long time to be like that,
and then the crash put me back again, and now it's like finding
myself or finding the person I want to be."

Thanks as always for your COMPLETELY UNBIASED and OBJECTIVE assessment
of Jimmy Carr's talents. We'd be lost without your wisdom and guidance! >
