What, like a party or something?
I am going to take a punt and suggest that Clarkson and his minders are going to down the bipolar route for his actions. He has used up all possible apologies and pushing someone over food is quite a challenge to overcome. The Bipolar route would instantly his "out of character" caused by mood swings etc.

[QUOTE 3581090, member: 9609"]but he is a very funny total arse - I'm going to threaten the beeb with withdrawl of my licence fee if they don't reinstate him immediately[/QUOTE]
And I will threatening to withhold my license fee if they do re-instate him.

Top Gear is on telly here, dubbed into Italian. The Italians think England is a nation of racist homophobes who laugh at the handicapped. We point at Berlusconi and shake our heads, they point at Jeremy Clarkson.
So yes. A great export. England should be proud...

I've signed quite a few change petitions in the last year or so but they've always been to do with social issues and injustices. I'm not sure that this qualifies. Still, it does seem to have got more petitioners in half a day than serious human rights violations do....

[QUOTE 3581889, member: 9609"]so why cancel an episode. there has to be a whole lot more to this than a bit of argy bargy behind the scene, do people at the beeb not get annoyed at each other from time to time.[/QUOTE]
I suspect just like any other employee of pretty much any organisation, smacking a fellow employee will lead to at least a neutral act of suspension whilst a disciplinary investigation takes place. If Top Gear still has segments to film or a live element to it for this weekend that he is integral to then what else can they do if he is suspended?
All speculation of course.

I like Top Gear. I liked it even better when Jeremy Clarkson took it away from dull car reviews into an entertainment show.
However,
In my opinion, it has become dull, repetitive, dull, repetitive, unimaginative, more crap stuff, and needs a make-over. The best bits are now the worst bits.
I only hope the BBC has the guts to take it on without Mr Clarkson. Perhaps with someone closer to my own age and weight.

I would sign a petition to get rid of the person, If he is a National treasure, then we should pawn him now while he still has some monetary value.

Let me make it simple: if you assault a work colleague, you should expect to be dismissed for gross misconduct.
