Clarkson offends - again

Clarkson is a self-absorbed fool.

JC political incorrectness is tame if you compare it to South Park. Making politically incorrect comments is fair game if you ask me, especially in the context of humour - its not aimed to be offensive so take it as it was intended. Throwing (or attempting to) a punch at a co worker would get me sacked from my job, cant see why it should be any different for a celebrity.

Clarkson apparently reported himself to the BBC, it wasn't the bloke he allegedly took a swing at.

I'd be very unimpressed too. What terrible service.

Yes, Jim, Phil the Greek is a scream. So dry his humour flies well over most people's heads.

The Chef in the pub had finished work by the time JC decided to leave the bar, and order a meal. He was lucky to be offered a salad. I totally get Prince Philips humour. He served in command of a destroyer in WW2. Be nice to have a beer with him, Bob

I wouldn't be happy either, but I would not belt someone for it and neither should anyone else, doesn't matter who you are.

The trouble with Mr JC is he speaks his mind, and a lot of people don't like that.

I don't think he's racist, or anything like that, he's just old school and being from Yorkshire does not take fools gladly.

The incident in Burma about the man on a bridge called a slope, was utter rubbish 99% of people in the UK, would have no idea what the word even meant.

People are not forced to watch Top Gear, but looking at the stats on global viewing a lot do.

Every country has to have one. England have JC and we have Sam Newman

In the early days South Park was very funny...

You might think he's a fool, but he's a very rich fool.

I gave up watching it when it went to Ch 9.

I doubt I'd go back as the show's formula is always the same. We see Supercars we can't afford and mini cars we wouldn't want, celebrities we've never heard of driving a car one wouldn't be seen dead in, and the three of them doing a stupid challenge whilst making fun of James. To me, the show is well past its use by date.

I tried watching it once and found it very unfunny. I never gave it a second chance.
