Where as your childish initial efforts to belittle me with a vain attempt to gain kudos through "comedy" but without actually adding anything meaningful to a conversation you hadn't bothered to have any part of until it was over is obviously exactly what Pistonheads is there for you hypocrite!! Your second post is merely there to try and justify the fact that your initial efforts were shot down in flames and try to save face as if it was truly what you were trying to convey you would have done it in the first place. Tell me why would I be at all concerned about your opinion on what should be discussed on an open forum, I mean as if you're in the position to decide what should and shouldn't be acceptable!
Are you just self righteous to assume that you speak for everyone?? And you've got the gall to accuse me of trying to be condescending/self congratulatory!!
That's what I though, same miserable, full of exclamations/ranting post as the previous 10.Are you just self righteous to assume that you speak for everyone?? And you've got the gall to accuse me of trying to be condescending/self congratulatory!!

I cannot take seriously the arguments of somebody who cannot differentiate between "your" and "you're".
And if that is the only petty thing you can come up with to try and get one over or as a genuine counter argument to try and disprove what I have said and all of the evidence I have provided to support it then it merely confirms what a small minded, ignorant little person you must be. The real reason you can't take the arguments I have made seriously is more to do with the fact that you clearly don't have the mental capacity or the understanding of the situation to do so, it's as simple as that!Or are you suddenly going to provide a list of evidence to support your claim that the BBC could have reemployed a member of staff who whilst already on a final written warning assaulted another member of staff in an unprovoked attack? That would be a far better way to show your intelligence don't you think?

Got the book for Christmas and have really enjoyed reading it (unlike the pages of 'look how clever I am' drivel in this thread!)
Porter manages to put over on the page how much he loved working on the show and does give some great insights into what was involved in making it. At the end of the day it was a show made by a group of people who obviously enjoyed doing what they did and got on together very well. There were several hints in the book that they were starting to struggle with ideas so it may be that the show wouldn't have run for much longer and I do wonder how they are going to manage with the new show at Amazon, their various twitter feeds seem to suggest more of the same though.

It just proves the standard of your thinking... nothing you've said has been subjected to the slightest common sense.
So nothing I've said has been subjected to the slightest common sense even though all you've come up with is a made up course of action that would have absolutely no legal standing what so ever?? Well prove it then if it's that obvious that I don't know what I'm talking about and you do. Supply any evidence you can to counteract the evidence I have provided if your so sure that your notion of the BBC being in a position to carry on employing Clarkson is so clear. Just one bit of factual evidence will be more than you've been able to conjure so far. You just can't do it can you!? Go on, prove your own higher understanding of the situation and firmly put me in my place by providing unequivocal evidence that not only I am wrong but the BBC and the multitude of employment lawyers are as well. If not just except that you clearly have no idea what you are talking about and have no understanding of what is really quite a simple situation to understand.gigglebug said:

You claimed that statute law forces the BBC's hand then linked to statutes which said absolutely nothing of the sort. The BBC took a course of action which has cost the Corporation over 300 million quid a year's income from TG while leaving Clarkson unpunished. Nothing of what you said was either remotely sensible or factually accurate. Had they taken the correct, sensible course of action, everybody (perhaps excluding Chris Evans) would have been better off, and no lawyers would have been involved.RoverP6B said:

And where's your evidence? Absolutely nothing provided again to back up your so called correct sensible course of action other than it being your own opinion of what could have happened. I however have already provided and will show you again what is factually accurate;http://www.morganmckinley.co.uk/article/gross-misc...

And I could go on and on and where you have provided absolutely nothing. So where is your evidence?? Show us anything that supports your notion that the BBC could have carried on Jeremy Clarkson's employment. Just one bit. Anything. Just one link to absolutely anything that can support what you are saying.

+1So, having finished the book I'm left wondering how many of the back room team will be involved with either of the new shows. Porter makes it clear that the success of the show was down to the great team spirit together with the chemistry of the presenters. For either of the new shows to be a success I guess they will have to reproduce these factors.
