The Guardian: Matt LeBlanc on Top Gear a welcome boost at a key time for show and BBC
Chris Evans introduced one of his new “Friends” to Top Gear fans on Thursday, announcing that Matt LeBlanc, star of the US sitcom, would join him as co-presenter of the car show when it relaunches in May.
After a sting of setbacks for Top Gear – from the loss of its executive producer after only a few months, to the emergence of pictures purporting to show Evans suffering from car sickness – the move should provide a boost for the show.
