Lovely - spoilerish - article in The Fail. Looks like Jeremy's got the Jag, which means by default James is driving the Rolls-Royce

The article also gives away a bit more about this year's Top Gear Live.

Similar article regarding TGL in the Telegraph

(I never know whether this sort of thing should be spoilered or not, or if that only applies to the series)

www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/top-gear/8806281/Jeremy-Clarksons-alternative-Olympics.html

Btw, this talk about Hammond getting skinny - when I went to a filming in February I was quite surprised just how tinywee he is. He looked very trim then, so if he has lost weight since then hopefully he won't go too far.

10 pages (and counting) of spoiler sightings and photos from an Indian car enthusiasts' website

They've finished with Mumbai (I was right about the tiffin carriers) and now they're in Jaipur

Also, the pics from today (5th October) show that lean as he is, Richard definitely isn't skinny, just extremely toned ;D (to see what I mean, go back to some of the studio footage from series 9 and 10, when he was recovering from the accident and looking rather frail at times).

There's only one thing better ~~that I can post here~~ than James in a tux, and that's James in a white tux.

Tell you what, it would be brilliant to see the three of them jamming. Jezza singing would be priceless. ;D Maybe he's beatboxing? I suspect this could be the context where the phrase "ambitious but rubbish" begins to make sense. ;D

That picture of thr TG trio is fabulous. They look like a lounge combo, I wonder what they would sing, it would be incongruous to be rock, Jeremy looks more like a crooner, but there again, who knows. I am really looking forward to this, please don't cut it.

It's definitely Ganesh - I have a very large statue of Ganesh loooking at me at the moment

It looks like the car has been dressed for a wedding or some other celebration, so Ganesh makes sense - he's about the most widely revered and recognised of all the Hindu gods, and he's particularly connected with new enterprises and new beginnings, with luck and with success. He's also the 'remover of obstacles', so he might be a handy chap to have around on a TG adventure!
