I used to find him mildly amusing and sometimes offensive, but his latest rant in the pages of The Sun is just sick beyond belief.

He was invited to Camillas Christmas bash though.

I saw the guest list for Camilla’s bash and apart from Dame Judi, the rest are appalling, as Camilla’s husband would no doubt say.

Ladyleftfieldlover Sat 17-Dec-22 18:47:48

The majority are appalling!

Does that include her son and Dame Maggie Smith and a few other luminaries.
A bit of a sweeping statement don’t you think.

Blossoming Sat 17-Dec-22 18:56:11

MerylStreep it definitely includes Piers Morgan, who was another invitee.

Here is Clarkson’s vile rant.

The man is a fool. And rude. Why pay any attention to him?

Smileless2012 Sat 17-Dec-22 19:34:21

I've never been able to watch or listen to him. Awful man.

Urmstongran Sat 17-Dec-22 19:37:15

I wonder if ‘alcohol had been taken’ when JC posted?
It’s a weird rant isn’t it?
Bet he felt a bit stupid the next morning.

I don’t, but an awful lot of men, young and old, do. His disgusting fantasies about a black woman should not appear in print, or indeed anywhere else outside his sick brain.

He's a buffoon. I'm surprised at even the Sum publishing that though. It's revolting.

A friend interviewed dame Judy and was not impressed.

sodapop Sat 17-Dec-22 21:05:01

Dreadful man, he will say or do anything for attention

LadyHonoriaDedlock Sat 17-Dec-22 21:21:28

Jeremy Clarkson — now there's an entitled, overprivileged, over-opinionated, nouveau-riche prima donna if ever there was one.

Aveline Sat 17-Dec-22 21:26:55

Come come LadyHonoria he's not nouveau riche!

Not impressed by Dame Judi? 😮😮

Was it Camilla’s bash though?

She was a guest at a private party hosted by Ewan Venters, the former head of Fortnum and Mason.

What on earth goes on in Jeremy Clarkson's head, what an absolutely vile thing to write.

Whose series Jeremy Clarkson’s Farm did more to highlight the plight of farmers struggling to cope with the economic climate than Countryfile, or any other rural affairs programme has ever managed to do.

Doesn't mean he's not a d**k though.

Come come LadyHonoria he's not nouveau riche!

His parents made their fortune from franchising stuffed Paddington Bears. They made enough from that to send young Jeremy to Repton College, where he was bullied for his uncultivated ways. He's certainly not from old money.

Of course he then goes on to bully his BBC producer, breaking his nose in a tantrum because he and his mates had stayed in the pub until chucking-out time and returned to their hotel long after the kitchen staff had gone home, and there was only a cold buffet instead of a proper manly steak.

He's definitely not a man of any kind of class.

Here is Clarkson’s vile rant.

😲
Rose West?
Does he know what he's saying or has he completely lost the plot?

That should never have been published, who was the editor?

Luckygirl3 Sat 17-Dec-22 22:21:57

I have always found him detestable in every way. Someone to ignore I feel.

😂😂

He certainly has his moments!
