it annoys me that people care more about defending a bigot than something like FGM, world hunger, global warming.. something that actually matters.

It annoys me too JoshBB.

this incident happened at 10pm at night

But Jezzer has the full support of her majesty's government:

Mr Cameron said yesterday: 'He's a huge talent. Because he is such a huge talent and he amuses and entertains so many people, including my children, who'd be heartbroken if Top Gear was taken off air, I hope this can be sorted out.'

Asked if he enjoyed the show, Mr Clegg replied: 'I quite like it, yes. It makes me laugh.'

and leading politician and man of the people Nigel Farage also gave his support

'I do enjoy Top Gear, it's very entertaining. Deliberately provocative and controversial and whenever I sit down and watch it I always laugh.'

Ed miliband is said to have been watching Call the Midwife.

People will get over this in a month. The bbc needs to stay firm in their decision.

what decision they haven't come to one yet?

I'm a fan of the show and will be sad if its cancelled but his behavior is awful so I would rather he wasn't rewarded for being a douche.

oh damn I was under the impression he was sacked.

Indeed.

what behavoir?

have you not had a row with anyone in your life?

I know I've never punched someone in the face during a row anyway and he's not on a final warning for no reason :nono:

and if you get a final warning from your employer does that extend to what you do outside work?

If it involves a producer of the show you're working on and is because of hospitality issues provided for by the show.........then yes

but if it involves the biggest cash cow at the bbc?

well, we shall see (not that JC cares 2 hoots)

I don't for one second think he'll be sacked tbh but I wish he was :laugh:

I heard bookies are taking bets on replacements if he is sacked, Chris Evans is top of the list. I think that'd be an interesting turn of events. I used to love Chris Evans in the 90's. TFI Friday :worship:

and that would be the end of top gear

Could be a new beginning :idc:

the beginning of the end

:idc:

Exactly, it would likely seem odd at first but if the programme itself is good enough usually changes can be coped with.

If he wasn't on it, I for one would start watching it again.

I doubt they'll let him go tbh but I would love to see a change

Last Night
on BBC1 Q.T.
last question was him

The Labour Lady said Sack him
he broke his last warning

evans knows nowt about cars so that wont happen

He's got one of the biggest private collection of cars in Britain..........I'm sure he knows something about cars

he collects cars but there is a huge difference to what top gear is about and he claims to know nowt
