    So have the gay couples find lesbian couples and book the tickets together. I'm pretty sure it's a BBC rule and not a Top Gear rule to have that 50/50 split in their studio audiences. They don't care whether you're gay or straight, they just care how many of you have dicks.

    Does this mean that Ford Probes aren't allowed in the parking lot?

    Here's a radical idea... how about an audience made up of enthusiastic fans who want to be there? I mean... WTH - affirmitive action on audience allowance? What next, concerts that have to be 50/50 so it will look better on the DVD?

    Funny how calling Jezza a pig isn't an issue. It's called comedy people! Anyone ever seen Jonathan Ross's showon the BBC? The house band is called "Four Poofs and a Piano"... "poof" being slang (slur) for homosexual.

    Nice faux outrage Stonewall.

    The key is, one must be intelligent enough to accept stereotypes for what they are, and laugh.

    There's not much of this available on the rock we call Earth, however.

    You know, watching many motorcycling events over the years, I've seen GasGas bikes doing trials, hopping boulders and bouncing carefully over tree trunks or stumps. Yet I've never seen one go up Hammond's bum.

    No offense to anyone here, but I'm really kind of glad that I missed that episode.

    That's hardly banning gays, is it? They'd just have to find a few more girls to join them. Hardly a slap in the face of Stonewall.

    What if they did a show reviewing the Ridgeline, Amarok, and Forrester? Oh wait, I'm stereotyping again.

    "Each booking requires equal amounts of men to women, so please ensure that you have a 50/50 split of guys and gals in your party."

    People offended to easily reading into something that isn't.

    They just don't want a Sausage feast. That is it, I don't see anything about not wanting Gays. Just not a audience full of fan boys.

    It took the poor offended this long to realize the hotter chicks are front row?

    I'd like to make it public that I am a great believer in equal opportunities. Man, Woman, Gay, Straight, people is people.

    However, if Top Gear were to enforce a strictly pro-18-30 year old Attractive Lesbian policy on audience management, I could be persuaded to turn a blind eye.

    If anything, this new policy doesn't go far enough. All female studio audience FTW, not that it could happen.
