I’m trying to think of a quick-witted and witty professional grump in today’s show biz world.
- Jack Dee - but he's already taken.- Surprisingly enough, Jeremy Clarkson also leaps to mind.- What about Bill Nighy... he would be a hoot, and at 63 he's just the right vintage.- Germaine Greer? Perhaps too annoying...

Yeah, I don't know about Clarkson. He is entertaining and he is funny, but his general attitude of sneering at everything just doesn't seem to fit in with the JAM mantra.
Am I the only one who thinks the show should die with Nicholas?
