Black Stig Back?

Dangerous · 6 Feb 2009 at 10:42

Might be a spoof but hey

Scuzi · 6 Feb 2009 at 10:46

Aircalf carrier.

PiKe · 6 Feb 2009 at 10:55

Spoof I think.

Stinky · 6 Feb 2009 at 10:59

all i see is a white square....

NathanE · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:00

Viral marketing campaign I reckon. Check the WHOIS for the domain... it is a shadow company that doesn't exist on Google anywhere!

Wouldn't it be awesome if they bring the Black Stig back for the new series?

Stinky · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:01

oh i see it now. spoof

Mr-White · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:01

looks a spoof, don't recall the black stig being that small or bowl so much when he walked

Must have a new job as a carpet fitter.

Well they sacked the black stig when he published that he was the stig, and now Ben Collins has accidentally let slip hes the current white stig (although most people knew anyway) so it wouldnt supprose me if they sacked him too and replaced him. A showdown between white and black stig would be good fun!

Maccy · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:17

Camera work isn't good enough to be a proper ad either surely?

Phil W · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:17

Spoof, STIG does not run...

...apart from when he's chasing sheep.

Phate · 6 Feb 2009 at 11:32

Or....Saaaaaaaaaaffffeennnd

They don't need to sack Mr Collins though

All they need to do is change the character back to the black Stig. And the mystery and aura will be in full flow again...

He's too short!

fake!

Finglonga · 6 Feb 2009 at 12:09

Short as said and he has let himself go by putting a bit of weight on. Also what's with the walk? :eek:

TwoSaints · 6 Feb 2009 at 12:22

surely the weight is blubber to keep him warm in the sea, afterall he's been in there for some time

Suppose so and the lack of height could be caused from the impact on his head when he hit the sea floor. :eek:

Black stig? What would Carol Thatcher say?

cheets64 · 6 Feb 2009 at 13:15

They are not going to get Perry McCarthy back, who was the black stig, it would be a different driver so he could be any height or size, I like the missing glove.

Same registered address, so possibly a hoax from the users of that forum?

Did a search for "Stig" on that forum, and came to this page

Containing this.

I'm delighted to be able to confirm that we will have two very special guests joining us on the Saturday night at this years Annie Bash .

BBC Top Gear's original "Stig" will be joining us for dinner and will be giving us a talk afterwards about some of the outrageous things they got up to off screen.

After the Stig's talk, International singing star Phil Cavill will be joining us and performing live. Phil is flying in from the Channel Isles where he'll have just finished starring in a special one off concert of Les Miserables. In fact, he has starred in most of the biggest international shows, including playing the lead role in Les Miserables for over 10 years (both London and New York), Miss Saigon, singing in concert at the Royal Albert Hall for the Queen and he even opening Euro 96 at Wembley.

I'm over the moon that both these guys can make it. Perry is very funny and Phil sells out concerts at £70-£100 a ticket - so to have them both for our humble little annual bash will make for a pretty special evening.

Just to pre-warn you, we only have 40 rooms at the hotel which will be offered on a strictly first come basis (not sure how many are left) so if you fancy it, it would be wise to book your room ASAP. Hope to see you there
