The sooner they get rid of that ignoramus the better.

Re: Top Gear
To be honest this thread has a better link. The other one should be merged into this :p

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday
There's no arguing about the money they bring into the Beeb's coffers and I rather like their disdain for matters PC. However, over the years the way they behave, sound and look has become increasingly homogenised IMHO which is a pity. As a serious car show Top Gear is rubbish but as an entertaining and irreverent evening entertainment show it's great. I'd much rather watch these three 'children' larking about than any number of the same old 'comedians' and 'celebrities' currently infesting the other major channels in one non funny game show or another.
Unless this 'fracas' is far more serious that it appears, it'll be interesting to see whether the Beeb will cut off its nose to spite its face.

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday
Top Gear without Clarkson. Unthinkable.
BBC about to commit suicide?

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday
IIRC JC owns part of Top Gear.
I can see it moving to a non BBC channel.

Clarkson has become a big liability so the sooner they get rid if him the better in my opinion as no one is bigger then the programme..

Re: Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday
It sounds like Clarkson might have gone too far. The BBC should tolerate his general controversial tendencies because that's what makes him what he is and let's that vibe sink into the show. However there are basic standards you would expect from someone in a workplace and if he has gone beyond making risqué jokes on TV to taking it out on the staff then the BBC can't accept that. Noting to do with broadcasting considerations and everything to do with the way a staff member behaves at work.

Would love for Sky to jump in and offer the 3 presenters some big fat cheques and a big budget to host a new show for them.
