Spotted: The Stig in Tesco Extra

ImageWe’ve just received an urgent packet of tapes from the head of security at Watford Tesco. He isn’t happy.

It would appear that our tame racing driver has ransacked the supermarket and bought every copy of his new book in order to hide the real story of the existence of The Stig.

Award-winning biographer Simon du Beaumarche has unmasked the truth on The Stig. After a year of research and interviews with those closest to him, including Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, leading figures from Formula 1, music, movies and the military. Beaumarche found out the real story and consigned it to words, then to paper, then bound together in a hardback book called The Stig: The Untold Story.

We’ve put the CCTV of The Stig filling a Lamborghini Aventador with Watford Tesco’s supply of the book below. So if you manage to get a copy from Tesco, count yourself lucky, as it appears The Stig’s trying to buy them all.

I remember the good old days when top gear was more than just a handfull of episodes, what exactly are you guys thinking 5 episodes and a 2 part special and thats it for season 19, why did you even bother.
If you lot are getting too old for a full season maybe its time to retire.
