Jeremy Clarkson

Yes.

granjura I hardly think they're that desperate!

You've got to give them points for this

Jane10- they are all looking for new contracts elsewhere- so no wonder. It does look more and more as the whole thing was pre-meditated by the 3 of them as their contracts with the Beeb are up.

Perhaps his lip got split on the cold cuts.

Hmmm. I think we know there was kind of a 'hit'. Whether it was a full-on punch is another thing.

We don't even know whether JC really did throw a punch yet, jngl!

Having seen the news it looks like a million people think JC IS funny! You lot don't have to like him or actually watch him! James May and Richard Hammond have refused to continue Top Gear without him. That says something....

I wonder why JC really hit the producer. How the conversation really went leading up to the punch. Was it really just about dinner, or did one thing lead to another?

That must be it, vq

He has a look of a werewolf lol.

Oh No! I can't stand Guy Martin. I don't know why but he gives me the creeps

I hope they keep JC. I would miss him terribly but if he has to be replaced I'd like it to be Guy Martin although he'd end up racing the Stig.

Maybe some time out is what he needs

And some professional help - anger management?
I don't think the naughty step will be enough on its own.

I dislike JC's attitudes and the way he conveys them - but a bit of me also feels rather sorry for him. Anyone who feeds on publicity as he does and who gets so overwrought that he finds it hard to control his temper is not a happy bunny. You feel he is on the edge all the time. Maybe some time out is what he needs.

like school lavatorial humour- it might have been funny once- but it is so so predictable and same old, same old- JC is just NOT funny anymore.

But again, I do wish they would get on with it. Either he hit the guy or he didn't.

But is it funny to insult people?

No I don't jess. As ever it ain't what you say its the way that you say it! He's just plain funny!

Well I find the very contrived, carefully scripted humour boring JessM. As does my car mad son who used to enjoy watching it but now doesn't watch it as it's all so predictable.

I love James Martin! I do agree though that he wouldn't be 'edgy' enough. Jeremy Clarkson makes my skin crawl.

You don't find all that contrived, carefully scripted humour boring then Jane10 ?

Which James Martin?

But he's so boring compared to Jeremy!

He'd be my choice as well, Juliette and he has a pilot's licence. Is that one up on JC?

James Martin.
Loves his cars, loves his food, loves his dog and even better loved his gran. What's not to like?
