I'm just waiting to see Gene Hunt as the "Star in the Reasonably Priced Car".

"What's up, Hamster? 'fraid this car's gonna flip on ya?"

I think the British public just wants to see everyone sacked. You can't complain and shout for someone's head whenver they say something you don't agree with.

Doesn't stop people trying.

I'm gonna say the latter because I really can't be bothered wading through all the crap to find out that this is another 'scandal' over absolutely nothing. But Clarkson does say contraversial things in order to draw attention to himself, he's famous (infamous?) for it.
Which is why I'm so amazed that the public is up in arms over something relatively minor, coming from him. It's like when people watch scenes of mass murder and destruction without batting an eyelid, and then wince and feel emotionally scarred when somebody kicks a puppy.

Sadly true, idiotic jumped up people acting above their station. Almost as bad as people who will take a word say for instance 'persecuted' that they have heard and think it makes them sound intelligent. As thus they will use it constantly and out of context, slightly irrelevant but it ignores me though it is that sort of person who is likely to complain just because they want something to believe in.

Bloody wenches and knaves the lot of them.

I've got no idea who this man is or what he's done. This post is to inform the OP that his thread title is redundant. "Clarkson's Done It Again!" would suffice, or "Clarkson's Done It A Second Time!". Whichever you prefer. Redundancies make me sad :(

So true, unfortunately.

Clarkson's an opinionated dinosaur, but he's also screamingly funny and a genuine personality of the first order. You don't put a muzzle on a man like that unless you want to ruin his career.

Unfortunately we Brits seem to have developed a particularly nasty streak of "holier-than-thou" complex. It's the only explanation I can think of for the Daily Mail's continued success. Or my last sentence, come to think of it.

Its Britain. We take up any excuse to write letters of complaint just like we take up any excuse to form a queue. Its what we do for some bizarre reason

It isn't the british public as such but rather the media, and especially the tabloids, who specialise in stigmatising things and then demanding solutions. I suppose stirring up hate from the mindless masses sells.

No way!

Top Gear is one of the only TV shows I watch any more. If anything, he should ramp it up, get taken off the air, and then let's watch how the Beeb's audience figures take a dive. (Top Gear is one of the BBC's most watched programmes, both here and abroad.)

People all over the world watch it for the antics and the humour, and perhaps a little of the nice cars.

I recommend that you go back to watching unoffensive, dumb, middle-class ITV dramas...

ok, one, dont insult me like that. I have no problem watching people say fuck or **** or insulting minorities on air. I have absolutely no problem with Clarkson himself or the way he presents his show.

BUT

he's in hot water as it is, already in trouble for saying something he knew would offend (he knew it, ok? he's not an idiot) and he follows it up by lying to and insulting a police officer. he's been getting away with murder since day one and now people are starting to get a little annoyed at his crap

now, i know he's not malicious and he's not really out to hurt anyone, but launching two stupid attacks back to back in as many weeks is not only hurtful, but also very, VERY stupid.

Did I read a different news article to everyone else? Here was me thinking he'd just gotten away with, I don't know, exercising his right to free speech?

is not only hurtful
Are you telling us Clarkson genuinely hurt your feelings? Despite the fact that you do not know the man, have most likely never met him, and have no real reason to be truly offended and slighted?

I'm hoping you just worded that wrong, but it seems that many people are acting as if Clarkson slept with their mothers and made jokes about it the following morning.

Oh, and the news story appears to have been removed...
