Clarkson is toast and as expected has been rightly sacked by the BBC over his latest episode.

The long suffering Beeb have finally plucked up the courage to tell clarkson to take a hike and some might say not before time.

The show was great in it's heyday but is dated now and looks a bit like Last of the Summer wine on wheels.

All things must go eventually and Top Gear is no exception. Mr Clarkson had been skating on thin ice for years but the thing that really sealed his fate was the whole "Celebrities are above the law" with ref to Jimmy Savile.

I think the BBC realised they cannot ever allow their employees no matter how famous to flout the law with impunity. so on that Bombshell I'll finish this Post.

As a footnote - I think the whole show will be scrapped and May,Hammond and STIG might come back along with a few new faces in a revamped show next year.

Or might we see May & Hammond and STIG leave the BBC to team up with Clarkson to continue the show under a new guise at say CH4 or CH5 or even ITV
