Damon Hill

FAQ · 28/07/2008 19:46

no that was YEARS ago - he was rumbled so they got someone new.

giddykipper · 28/07/2008 19:47

Thought it was meant to be Mark Webber

Flossish · 28/07/2008 19:48

who's he?

constancereader · 28/07/2008 19:48

no, if he ever does find out he will lack purpose. His life will be empty and unfulfilled.

maidamess · 28/07/2008 19:48

Is it Terry Wogan?

constancereader · 28/07/2008 19:49

or you could tell him it is me, if it will put his mind at rest.

DP and I were discussing this last night.

Got to be an ex racing driver. You are probably right about Mark Webber.

I didn't realise the last one was Damon hill though.....alothough againi assumed it was a racing driver

Crikey I am behind the times

Marina · 28/07/2008 19:55

I know...

brimfull · 28/07/2008 19:56

probably still is damon,they just said they changed him

llareggub · 28/07/2008 19:56

We think, chez llareggub, the Stig is one of many different drivers.

NutterlyUts · 28/07/2008 19:59

I think wikipedia (ahem.. clearly the font of all knowledge) said the Stig is one of 3 people depending on the show

lizziemun · 28/07/2008 19:59

DP has googled and wikkied but to no avail.

We do think it is more then one driver.

I told DP it was me but he did not believe me

DH also mention a forum 'digitalspy' that had discussion about the stig on there.

FabioThatFirggingCat · 28/07/2008 21:58

I know stig is not a mumsnetter, he never uses the P&C parking spaces

OurHamsterisevil · 29/07/2008 23:10

There have been lots of comments on it being more than one driver because he seems to be different shapes and sizes in each episode. Would love to know though

BarcodeZebra · 29/07/2008 23:12

No, Fabio, it's me.

hughjarssss · 29/07/2008 23:14

JC said on sunday's show that this was a new younger stig who was replacing the last one, so I don't think it is 3 different ones

cheesesarnie · 29/07/2008 23:15

its just one of lifes little mysteries.i dont want to know it would spoil it.

Apparently the Stig is indeed many different drivers. For example, when one of the car companies gives their new super flash car to the programme to take round the track the company will send their own test driver to complete the lap and pose as the Stig as they won't let others loose on the car. At other times its been varying people, including on a few occasions a certain Mr Hamilton.
