    I'm telling you, there is but one Form of Stig, which is eternal and unchanging, but innumerable individual instantiations. He is a Platonic Ideal, y'all.

    Think of all the BBC spin-off series possible:

    Stigs' Den

    Gordon Ramsay's Stig Nightmares

    How Clean is Your Stig?

    Last Stig Standing

    What Not to Wear as The Stig

    Stig is What he Eats

    Look at the picture closely, the only "real" person in the photo is the one on the left, that particular Stig is the only one with a reflection, all the rest have none.

    @Chris Hamrick: If this was a normal tame racing driver, I'd agree. But come on, it's the Stig. Frankly, I'm surprised he can even be photographed.

    You know, Irwindale Speedway ([www.toyotaspeedwayatirwindale.com]) has a mascot similar to the Stig.


    Some say he is the Freudian embodiment of male sexuality. Some say he has to screw on his helmet before a race.


    All we know is, he's called Lug Nut.

    Probably one Stig for the TG test track, multiple ones for their other specials, races, etc.


    Is there any official connection between the BBC and the Daily Mail? Then I would believe conspiracy.

    @Barry White Stripes, Office LW:


    There comes a time
    When we heed a certain call
    When the world must come together as one
    There are people trying
    And it's time to send a man to drive:
    The greatest Stig of all


    We all go on
    Remem'bring day by day
    That Stiggy in the corner's entry will soon brake and change
    We are all a part of
    A Top Gear family
    And the truth; a bit of hooning's all we need


    [Chorus]
    We are the Stig
    We are the Hammond
    We are the Clarkson and the cranky May
    So let's start driving
    There are tires that need burning
    We're changing our own gears,
    It's true we'll make a better day
    Just you and me
