Mullet-haired 90s legend Pat Sharp tweeted that he was the new presenter of Top Gear today.
Great to see the former Fun House legend still loves a bit of fun, even without the blond bouffant that made him famous on kids TV.
Here he is pretending to be the new Jeremy Clarkson for April Fool’s Day (although he doesn’t appear to be punching or insulting anyone).
So here I am in the studio….. first day at the new job #topgear #thenewclarkson pic.twitter.com/cnIMFxeaMF

But the internet is a funny old place. A few hours later the rather surprising #AskPatSharp hashtag began trending.
So JOE had a little look and old Pat gets a bit of a rough ride…
Your name is an anagram of Shat Parp. Did you know that? My mate Dave just told me. Dave is proper funny. Do you know him? #AskPatSharp

#AskPatSharp is trending. I’d ask him if he’d ever got Clarkson to test drive one of the painfully slow racing cars on Fun House.

Then we discovered this amazing trend had been around before…
Hi Pat..have you ever covered your cock in tippex in a Dundee hotel room whilst waiting for Homes under the Hammer to come on? #AskPatSharp

All we want at JOE is one more series of Fun House.
