Jimmy Carr 'in talks with BBC bosses to host Top Gear reboot' four years after it was shelved following Freddie Flintoff's horrifying crash

Comedian Jimmy Carr, aged 53, is reportedly in talks with BBC bosses to host a reboot of Top Gear. This potential revival comes four years after the programme was shelved following Freddie Flintoff's near fatal and horrific car accident. The BBC was forced to take the show off air after the crash, but discussions are now underway regarding Carr fronting the series as it seeks a return to television screens for its audience.
