The Stig’s Identity Is No Longer PUNder Wraps
Every day we play Spin1038’s Punderwall (it’s a clever pun you see). We’ll give you a story from the news and the puns that the news papers have come up with. All you have to do is come up with your own and send it into us. If your pun gets up here on the Punderwall then you’re in with a chance of winning €100 on Friday for Pun of the Week.

Today’s story for the Punderwall was about the unmasking of Top Gear’s The Stig. It was revealed that the driving legend’s real name is Ben Collins. The BBC were suing Collins because they felt the ‘The Man in The White Suit’, Collin’s yet unpublished autobiography, was in breach of their confidentiality agreement. Apparently the only people who knew the true identity of the Stig were the producers of Top Gear and the presenters James May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond.
And here are the puns that we thought were good enough to make it onto the Punderwall. Our number 1 will be entered into a draw for €100 on Friday. Best of Luck!
1. Ben tells BBC STIG that in your pipe and smoke it. From Paul
2. A stig in the BBC s tail.
3. Ben no longer in a stiggy situation.
4. No right of way for Clarkson as stig is in Top Gear for book.
5. Stig puts book into first gear.
