'Top Gear' Producer Was Apparently 'Driven Away' By Chris Evans

Not going well for him.

Chris Evans' Top Gear career hasn't had the best start, and accusations about why the show's producer has quit aren't going to help the situation.

Lisa Clark resigned from the popular motoring show after allegedly clashing with the new host several times. She apparently branded him a 'control freak' and said he thinks he can 'trample over everyone'.

A source told The Sun: "Evans didn't normally turn up to a lot of meetings, but at this one he said he had completed some footage with Jenson Button.

"Lisa replied, 'Yes but we need to make more than 30 films. It's not enough'. He shot her a look for undermining him and she was soon gone."

BBC Two controller, Kim Shillinglaw, and Top Gear's script editor, Tom Ford, have both also left the show but there is no indication that it had anything to do with Evans being hard work.

The BBC declined to comment on the reasons for Clark's resignation.
