Despite earlier denials, BBC morning radio host Chris Evans will be filming a "Top Gear sequence".

Now former Top Gear hosts, Hammond, Clarkson and May.

Literally every week, sometimes a couple of times a week in fact, there’s something new about the fate of Top Gear and its trio of now former hosts.

Today reports are saying that, despite earlier denials, BBC morning radio host Chris Evans will be filming a "Top Gear sequence" with an independent production company this week.

He confirmed this was happening via his Twitter account, stating that "We’re doing a Top Gear sequence with an independent production company and we’re going to see how it goes."

Clarkson, Hammond, and May responded in kind via their Twitter accounts. Jezza said that "Next week, I’m doing a pilot Radio 2 breakfast show with an independent company." Hammond: "Next week I’m doing a pilot of The Two Show on Fridays with an independent production company." May: "I’m working on a new TV idea, with an independent production company, called TFI Thursday." All three finished their tweets with this: "We’ll see how it goes," clearly mocking Evans.

The speculation continues.
