THE STIG REVEALED!
The identity of The Stig, the always-anonymous test driver on the popular television show “Top Gear,” has long been a closely guarded secret. On Wednesday, lawyers said the BBC had been refused an injunction blocking publication of a book revealing the identity of the character.
Shortly after, publishers HarperCollins said in a statement that a 33-year-old racing driver named Ben Collins “has a great story to tell about his seven years as The Stig, which will appeal to a wide audience beyond just motoring enthusiasts.”
Still one of my favorite BBC shows. I remember when I first started watching it, very accessible even for someone who isn’t into cars.
