Jeremy Clarkson suspended by BBC...
Discussion
There's this line graph I just invented
Jeremy Paxman -------------------------------------------------------- Jeremy Beadle
You can insert any Jeremy on at any place to come up with a good summation of their character between those two extremes.
I came up with this
Jeremy Paxman -------------------------------------------------------- Jeremy Beadle ------------- Jeremy Clarkson.
It's a good job I didn't do the people with initials JC as I would have had to do
Jesus Christ ------------------------------------------------------------- John Cleese
and I don't have an infinite number of --- to put to the right of Our Lord, the comic messiah, Mr Cleese.
He is a tool and probably the ultimate bar bore who is never wrong and loves himself.

I bet Channel 4, ITV, Channel 5, Sky etc etc are melting their phones trying to get through to JC et al offering them prime time slot for 'Top Gear 2/Sixth Gear'. BBC shooting themselves in the foot if they can't manage JC to keep TG on air.
Couldn't agree more.I really hope that TG moves away from the BBC to somewhere not so left leaning.

Low and behold it's 'BREAKING NEWS' on the front page
Clarkson it such a mismatch for the left-wing, communist BBC. Surprised they have not fallen out years go!
Already it has 1300 comments Low and behold it's 'BREAKING NEWS' on the front page

Always good that although limited information on what happened, peoplecannot wait to stick the oar in saying he deserved it, and what an idiot he is.
[quote=V8 Fettler]Did not Clarkson sell the Top Gear "rights" back to the BBC a couple of years ago? [quote]
Correct - he and Wilman disposed of their stake in the production rights via the Bedder 6 vehicle in 2013. As such, the BBC own all the rights to TG and are exploiting it in approved capitalist fashion. The idea that those evil lefties in the BBC would seek to hamstring their single most commercially successful programme is laughable, but hey, conspiracy theorists will theorise.

I wonder if he wanted to make a joke about this?:

I'm two Top Gears behind.

The problem is that the BBC have just banned all-male panel shows http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-31800...
So no reason why they wouldn't be looking to get rid of Top Gear as an all-male show.
BBC; utter, utter s since the word was invented.

I like this BBC piece;
"At the time, he said the BBC had told him he would be sacked if he made "one more offensive remark, anywhere, at any time".
- so letting go a stray word someone, somewhere might find offensive would result in immediate dismissal, but Savile could grope and bugger his way across the decades at Television Centre without censure...
saville never challenged the beebs feeble political sensibilities while laughing about it though did he."At the time, he said the BBC had told him he would be sacked if he made "one more offensive remark, anywhere, at any time".
