BBC considers U.S.-specific "Top Gear"
The U.K.'s BBC is considering producing a version of its popular "Top Gear" program for the United States, according to the Sun newspaper. The show will star the same cast as the British version ââ¬â Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May.
The report was not clear as to whether some of the same segments would be used in both editions of the show, but the U.S. version is expected to have an increased focus on American vehicles.
"BBC Worldwide has had exploratory conversations with the US networks to bring a local version of Top Gear to the US, but there is not yet a deal on the table," a BBC spokeswoman said.
U.S. stars will reportedly race against The Stig on Top Gear's track, the newspaper added.
