Slavery was decades ago. What happened, happened and there is no hiding that everyone is a little racist inside.

BBC needs to calm down and bring Jeremy back because Top Gear is not Top Gear without him. Besides this isn't the worst thing he has done.

Personally, I do think its a case of going over the top (on behalf of the bbc), you can't make tons of money off of someone being a certain way, then suspend them when being that way gets them into trouble, its just stupid, plus thefact that everything Clarkson says is for effect, there are very few genuine racists left in the middle-upper classes in the UK, he loves to push his luck and butt up against authority, and don't we all?

There's more to this than meets the eye, and don't forget that the BBC will have to refund millions now to other networks who have paid for the now cancelled shows. It's a mess and there is a deeper reason for it than is being shown.

Yup I'm surprised BBC isn't actually blasting him or their stations to run these new casts. Funny how it's other publications making these assumptions on Clarkson's behalf

Can you give us a source on this? I am curious.

Also, people keep acting like he was suspended for being himself, he allegedly threw a punch at the producer... I don't care who you are, a producer isn't going to allow something like that.

Top Gear is a soap opera, not really a car show anymore. Just lost their lead actor.

Obviously lol enthusiasts get bored of listening to fact. We watch it for the sheer entertainment and view of new places and roads we may never might be able to try for ourselves.

I would consider it more of a comedy than a soap opera, some of the shit they pull is so ridiculous.

Early 2013 he sold his shares, that's public record, the rest is my intuition. I could be totally wrong, I Was just throwing thoughts out really. There's definitely several other layers to this story, it doesn't make sense, Clarkson is too nonchalant.

Couldn't agree more, why do you think I'm in Greece, still, despite the economic crisis, at least I can fart in public without being arrested.

If he really did punch the producer... well... that explains the whole thing. A lot more going on than first met the eye, just like everyone thought.

[litxus]

Clarkson is getting old maybe more cranky with age? I doubt anything serious happened, but somehow I think they will come to an agreement as BBC will lose a lot of money otherwise.

I am a big fan of TG and Clarkson and hate the encroachment of the PC mentality that stifles free expression, but I'm afraid your rant only provides ammunition for the anti TG brigade. I am a native Brit and I agree there are some issues to be worked out with the EU re immigration, but the remainder of your comment is almost beyond any sensible response - you are anti Zionist, but want to go to live in Israel?? Suggest you work out your racist jibes before you land yourself in big trouble.

Buh bye.

I'm off to Aldi's, myself. My crumpets are stale.

Why is everyone defending free speech?

He punched a producer. Didn't call him a wanker or anything.

[Aashenfox]

Because there are plenty of situations in which a punch to the face is absolutely warranted...

In any case, it emerges today that it was not a producer, but a stakeholder, and that it wasn't a punch so much as a bit of pushing and shoving. What's more, Clarkson himself reported the incident. This whole thing makes less and less sense each day.

I think clear son just wants out , he is tired of the bbc , I think he is fishing for a better deal and the rest will follow i wreckon .. Watch this space

I appreciate people updating this thread with news as it comes, but can we please put sources so we can determine for ourselves whether we trust the internet?

It sucks that Clarkson is "suspended" the fact is that he punched someone plain and simple. Yes most people may not care about what he did fans just look the other way, technically thats assault and BBC is taking this seriously.

I'm sure you see and hear lots of celebrity get away with lots of things just because they are popular and is rich.

I personally still a fan of him, just not what he did.
