The gigs, which were planned before the presenter was sacked by the BBC, will be stripped of all ‘Top Gear’ and BBC branding and be called ‘Clarkson, Hammond and May Live’.
BBC Worldwide said it had agreed that the tour, which kicks off in Belfast on 22 May, could go ahead so as to not disappoint the thousands of fans who had already bought tickets and that it was "a sensible approach in the circumstances".

A spokesman for Brand Events, who are co-producing the shows, said they wanted to thank "ticket holders for their continued patience".
"The fans are the most important people to Jeremy, Richard and James so we're delighted to be able to say 'we're still coming'. We're sure it'll be something you won't want to miss," the spokesman told the BBC.
The shows will take place in venues around the world including Australia, Norway, South Africa and the UK.
If you're looking for someone who doesn't mind being purposefully offensive, look no further than Katie Hopkins. The controversy magnet hits the headlines more often than all the Top Gear stars put together, normally because she's offended someone/a large group of people.

You've suspended a pint-loving smoker who has his head stuck in the 1940s? Why not employ someone exactly the same person?Nigel Farage has virtually the same political views as Clarkson, so he'd probably be a good fit.
Vladimir Putin(03 of11)

If you want someone with outdated ideas about their country's military might and an odd desire to look as masculine as possible, the Russian leader would be a good one to go for. Although he probably won't be free any time soon, he's probably going to be running the Kremlin until he dies.

If you've ever seen one of Piers' epic Twitter spats with Clarkson, you'll know he's remarkably similar in many ways. The same fashion sense, a similarly punchable face, and all the rest of it.
Who better to take over from Clarkson's controversy-laden style than the man who brought us "rose-c***ed spectacles"?

Here's someone as offensive and widely hated as Clarkson, who'll undoubtedly make the same kind of unpleasant jokes just because he thinks they're funny. If maximum offensiveness is what you're going for, snap up the world's least funny comedian ASAP.
The veteran radio host's alter ego Steve Coogan is quite the petrol-head, having appeared on the show several times. But wouldn't it be great for the man from Norwich to take you around the Top Gear track whining about "POWERRRR" is his trademark nasal voice?

Potentially the only ego bigger than Clarkson's.

He'd certainly be more coherent than Clarkson at times. He's probably also a bit skinnier and a better driver.
