Jeremy Clarkson suspended "following a fracas" with a Producer

So anything about what was said?

Should we not know what was said before we go all out saying he didn't deserve it or does it not matter

I will stand by him pretty much regardless, as I said in another post he's not real.

A charecter on TV and a very entertaining one at that in my opinion.

The problem is fracas covers anything from a noisy argument to a physical encounter so he either mouthed off at the producer or physically assaulted him.
If it was just a verbal altercation then I suspect he will survive but if turns out to be at the other end of the scale he will be sacked ... only time will tell.

I like Clarkson but enjoy a good parody.

If you don't like him you may like this.

I like the show and thought that was great.

I don't know if you've seen it but theres an episode of top gear where Harry is the star in a reasonably priced car and they show part of the clip and have a good laugh about it.

Harry Enfield looked a tiny bit uncomfortable but clarkson seemed pretty cool with it.

Ok I was under the impression that it started from him saying something which then lead to the fracas.

Well he did punch piers Morgan.

Not a bad thing,
He only did what everyone else was thinking.

This headline, everything that is wrong with the British entertainment industry.

With Jeremy Clarkson suspended, here's my vision for an eco-feminist Top Gear

This attitude is why American TV is miles ahead of our own

Yar, i wouldn't watch that either. It's a horrible pitch and she makes it sound like "Tomorrow's World", and that turned out be a load of old hogwash.

could you imagine the BBC making South Park or Family guy.....

James May confirms there was a "dust up" over dinner , although he himself wasn't there he doesn't think it was all that serious.

Out of the three he seems to be a bloke you could sit in a pub and have a good chat and laugh with , hopefully he'll go on and do more toy stories and other science based programs ... what ever happened to man lab ? , that was a good bloke program.

lol what?

my TV license.

Please tell me you don't need a license to watch tv over there.

Sounds worse than it is.

It more a tax than a license. In fact it is a tax no idea were the word license come from.


But even as tax it still pretty stupid. I doubt it will survive the next decade.

It seems his contract is up at the end of the month.

I am sure this has something to do with it.

James May was drunk.
