    The BBC won't get rid of them , they earn the corp millions . Cannot abide Clarkson , and it has not been a proper car show for years . I will admit it can been entertaining for some .Should be titled the Clarkson show , that's what it is !

    1. Happy birthday to TSS's Mum (he must be really old)
    2. Clarkson...well past his sell by date. Needed bringing to heel years ago.
    3. Talk he may be replaced by Roy Keane...like replacing one half-trained dog with another. (Actually prefer Keane which shows how much I dislike Clarkson).
    4. Happy birthday again, TSS's Mum :emoticon-0166-cake:

    I've never liked his show and thought he and his mates were just a younger version of Last of the Summer Wine which was also a load of crap but quite good by comparison. Clarkson exemplifies all that is bad about modern television ie pandering to the ignorant masses.

    How anyone can defend him I do not know. Violence in the workplace is absolutely intolerable. If this were a teacher, nurse, policeman or care home assistant they would be out of the door and hounded by society. An ignorant money spinning buffoon does it and all the half wits jump to his defence. The world has gone stark raving bonkers.

    Got the same. Been unwell since before Christmas even though I had a flu jab. Every time I have gone to a game it has taken me three or four days to get over it. Evening matches have been the worse. I have spent most of this winter in bed or collapsed in front of the telly. I am now an absolute expert on antiques as well as being one. PS Did you mean interspersed? I'd like to tell you all about my bad leg and my bladder and bowel problems but I realise that would be boring so I will say nothing but wallow here in self pity. Antiques in the Attic is about to start. Whoopee! the highlight of my day FFS. PS Did you know you can find repeats of that clown Clarkson and his idiot mates on some channel or other throughout the day.

    More than 200,000 have signed a petition to reinstate Clarkson. I will be signing it later.

    I won't. I really enjoy the program, however he is a lawless man and the BBC need to show some courage for a change and put their morals ahead of their bank balance (or lack of on either side).

    He's a bloke on the TV, not some kind of returning Messiah.

    I have started a petition to have him banished to a feminist enclave somewhere. They'll eat him alive.

    Petition now up to 250,000. Keep on rising at this rate and it will be difficult for the BBC to ignore.

    I'd be more impressed with them if they did.... and my family enjoy our Sunday evening watching the show.

    Even if I didn't loathe Clarkson, I wouldn't sign such a petition without knowing the facts. He has been on several warnings and none of us know how badly he behaved. May be very little, but he is a man who has got above himself over the years.

    Jeremy Clarkson is an absolute tool.

    Okay being laddish when you are a lad, but embarrassing/annoying/ridiculous in middle age.
