Interesting. All the rumours were about it being taken in a different direction.
Maybe the truth was that Ed was just asked to have his hair done and work out a bit? Or he demanded tonnes of $s and Mike "the-wheeler-dealer" Brewer master negotiator saw a chance to replace him with a new er more efficient model.

Been watching the new Wheeler Dealers the last couple of weeks, pleasantly surprised, Ant Anstead knows his shit and it's an affable screen presence, plus they seem to be going into some good detail about stripping and fixing things rather than the superficial detailings I thought they might do when they changed it up. Hate to say it but the new garage is a nicer place to be than Edd's old shed. Same complaint as the old series i.e. too much Mike Brewer (2 mins is too much), and not sure why they've relocated to the US.
Edd China took a lot of goodwill with him when he was booted off the show and I was hoping he'd do what all the fans wanted, which was literally just something along the lines of his bits from WD, but unfortunately he's posted a pilot on his YT channel of a similar show but he's doing up a viewers car which results in way too much padding, not enough mechanic-ing, and worst of all, a member of the general public. I thought we all agreed that the general public are mostly cunts and should not be indulged on television?
