Never met Leno, but May on several occasions when Top Gear team frequently v=
isited the BMIHT museum in the UK. May was alright though a bit of a berk, C=
larkson was insufferably arrogant and always rude to everyone he met - but t=
hat=E2=80=99s Clarkson all over - and the Hamster was just a big time bore. A=
fter several visits by TG, the CEO refused to have them any more because the=
y were too disruptive and troublesome. None of us who worked there ever watc=
hed TG anyway because collectively we knew more about the UK auto industry o=
f days gone than the TG team and their so-called researchers who were hell t=
o deal with. Yawn.
