Sad to see him go I wonder if Top Gear will continue ? I don't think it could without him. Last edited by BluenoseGames; 24-03-15 at 23:13. |

Sad news indeed. I suspect this will be the end of the show and that Clarkson eventually might start up another car show on another channel. He might even bring the two others with him (I believe their contracts were up for renewal at BBC, but that they haven't signed yet). IDK.

Good. He's a loathesome arrogant prick who feels like he can do anything he wants because he presents a TV show, in my opinion, and his fans seem to think butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. Im glad the BBC has stuck to their guns. No one should be allowed to racially insult and physically assault someone for something completely beyond their control and get away with it, especially after a catalogue of previous warnings.
Plus, I'm sorry but May and Hammond have only said they'd go with him because they know no one would watch the program for them alone anyway as pretty much anyone who likes the program, has already said. It's not as if it's some grand gesture as they undoubtedly want it to look. Last edited by jajay119; 25-03-15 at 00:05. |

Good, I'm glad for once he hasn't got away with it.

I'm pleased by this. He's been let off too many times in the past and it's about time he faced real consequence to his actions. I am sad for fans of the show though and I understand where their upset and support for Jeremy is coming from but we should not be seen to support behaviour like this.

From the BBC:

The Mirror is just parroting the Telegraph. Neither paper likes him, so they can hardly be considered to be reliable sources of information. Besides, the Mirror is just a scandal rag red-top tabloid anyway, and those are usually bought only for one reason... well, two, actually. |

What's the Telegraph got against him? They're a pretty respectable newspaper anyway.
