I can't help but think the Beeb are doing this because of Top Gear. They know the new version is going to be a flop, so they've decided to bring in a show with a similar target audience to boost their viewing figures. Let's not forget, Top Gear initially took over the time slot that RW left behind.

The government is aware by this point that the UK needs more engineers so the BBC may have an incentive to bring it back to get young people excited about engineering again.
