Clarkson Suspended by BBC

[101toMR]

What's the point of the Beeb not showing TG this sunday. The incident obviously had nothing to do with next sundays show. And people think Clarkson's childish.

Some people just don't like the fact he's popular.

Love the fella he's as funny as fuck and makes programs that people actually want to watch.

Each to their own I suppose. In my opinion he's just a self serving, grade "A" tw*t of the highest order. If he was a football club, he'd be the rags.

Enough people like him and Top Gear to make it the most popular show on the BBC.
They're doing something right for a large number of people who tune in week after week.

Making junk TV that lots of people want isn't exactly hard.

The lower orders will watch any old rubbish, just as they'll buy any old rubbish.

A million fast food joints and tattoo parlours can't be wrong.

Are you an horizon man or do you lower yourself to come out of BBC4 and join the rest of humanity in having a laugh?

What an inane comment.

Not at all.

Being a popular broadcaster does not mean a person cannot be a complete c*nt.

Likening the countries favourite DJ to Clarkson shows stupidity.
You know you're better than that,you have to try harder.

I see Troll is back on the menu.

With a healthy sprinkling of wumming.

Did a single poster on here state that? Lots of mind readers on here.

You're the one who likened Clarkson to Jimmy.
And you think that someone else is wumming?

You dispute that some people don't like the fact he's popular?
Well he is popular as are his programs and some people don't like him.
It's not a great leap of faith is it?

The amount of people that watch a particular programme is no indicator of the quality of that programme. The X Factor, I'm a celebrity, the soaps; all pull in massive (sniff) audiences. Doesn't mean to say they're of a high quality though.

I never said it was high quality did I?
But it's popular and surely Clarkson doesn't need to be put in the same boat as Uncle Jimmy?
Next they'll be saying Amos was banging Mr Gilkes.

I can take him or leave him but he has made some good stuff, years ago he made a documentary about his Father in Law who it turned out won a VC at the battle of Arnhem in 1944 but he never told his family as he thought ''it wasn't that important''

The program he made about merchant seamen wasn't too shabby.

It was Mr Wilkes and they were at it like rabbits thanks to Amos's bugger grips.

Where did I mention "uncle Jimmy"? As to what I did say, I'll amend it. You said

That intimates that because the programme gets a large audience, that means the producers are doing something right. The two don't necessarily go hand in hand, as my examples earlier show. As it happens (there's my "uncle Jimmy" reference), the basic premise for the programme isn't the worst out there; it just needs new fresh presenters. It's time the current three were put out to grass. You obviously disagree; fair enough. We'll have to agree to differ.

It took them long enough!!! He should have been sacked long ago. (IMHO)

I wasn't referring to you with regards to "Uncle Jimmy" Chabal made the reference and I apologise if it looked like I was aiming my jibe at you.

So whats he actually done? Did he twat his producer?

Was just about to start this topic.


<a class="postlink" href="http://news.sky.com/story/1442344/jeremy-clarkson-suspended-by-bbc-after-fracas" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://news.sky.com/story/1442344/jerem ... ter-fracas</a>

The BBC has suspended Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson "following a fracas" with a producer.

An investigation will now take place into the alleged incident and no-one else has been suspended, the corporation said.

It also said Top Gear would not be broadcast this Sunday.

"The BBC will be making no further comment at this time", it added.

Clarkson was put on what was called his final warning last year.

That followed a racism row after claims he used the n-word while reciting the nursery rhyme Eeny, Meeny, Miny Moe during filming of the BBC2 programme.

He previously faced a storm of protest from mental health charities after he branded people who throw themselves under trains as "selfish".

And he was forced to apologise for telling BBC1's The One Show that striking workers should be shot.

A BBC spokeswoman said in a statement today: "Following a fracas with a BBC producer, Jeremy Clarkson has been suspended pending an investigation.

"No one else has been suspended. Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday. The BBC will be making no further comment at this time."

More follows...

My money's on the producer being a right on trendy BBC type with a full ginger beard, wears one of those stupid seven dwarfs wooly hats, faded dungarees wearer who lives in Islington or near Hampstead Heath and has probably been getting on everybodys tits for years and Clarkson has hopefully snapped and twatted him
