Don't know what Edd's future plans are but hopefully they involve something on TV. I know the show is staged to a certain extent, but I like Wheeler Dealers and have picked up a few tips over the years. Ant Anstead is a knowledgeable bloke, not just a presenter, so hopefully will bring something to the show.
Personally I'd like to see Edd go back to his roots as a creative fabricator and car builder. Good luck to the tall fella.

it also explains why all the pics put up by WD/BREWER on social media etc in the past couple of months have not included Edd.
lets hope he has a new programme lined up.

This video from ed explains why he's leaving. Basically discovery want to bodge the show and cut down on his workshop scenes.

He needs to go pay mcm a visit and build something that will do maaad skids and/or make choo choo noises lol.
Shame he has left but since discovery took over it was starting to get a bit poo, same as every other American car program, showing the finished car at the beginning, insert drama, forced jokes and product placement.

It's a real shame Ed is leaving! While people hated Mike the pair of them certainly seemed to get along very well indeed, long before the WD years.
If you ask me it may well be a wise move for Ed! TV viewing is not quite what it once was and more and more people are looking to streaming.
It would not surprise me if he took the same direction that Roadkill have. By that I mean make a show for anyone to watch and then something for people willing to pay on his YT channel. It's funny, quite a few greats have gone to the internet for viewing ; just look at the Grand Tour...

Always enjoyed watching the two of them and fair bloody play for doing such a nice video - no bitterness etc .
I think he has made exactly the right decision as i mainly watched it for his workshop fixes , then the sections where brewer went to specialists etc.
I like Brewer and Antstead as well so hopefully they can escape unscathed if the new Wheeler Dealers turns out to be dumbed down tosh .
Again fair play for leaving , choosing his integrity as a engineer, mechanic and inventor over the money .

Well Done Ed! Great decision to leave the WD now that is becoming just another 'murican product placement showcase.

Hey there, watch all that 'merican stuff. no, not really. ;-)
Ed was always the attraction to WD, I saw one of the more recent eposides and it was to be fair a pastiche of itself. Mike was still an Ahole and hard to watch (my personal opinion)
ED and Arron.... now there is a thought!
Mike should team up with Bernie from chop shop. it'll keep them both out of trouble.
