BBC2 chief: 'Top Gear' trio will stay
BBC Two controller Roly Keating has reassured Top Gear fans that all three presenters will stick with the show.

It was recently reported that James May and Richard Hammond could leave the series after failing to agree contract terms.

The pair, whose contracts expire at the end of the month, are said to want pay deals more in line with co-host Jeremy Clarkson, who is rumoured to earn £1 million a year.

However, Keating predicted that all three hosts will stay with the programme, saying: "I'm confident the Top Gear team will be there for autumn - and beyond."
