I'd be more surprised if Clarkson was able to sustain a 30 second physical anything, never mind assault.

He's gone!

BBC have announced it - they were keeping radio silence on their own stations but it's now official.

On BBC 24 news as I type.

Mods - change the thread title.... Clarkson sacked.

Gross misconduct and goodbye.

dressed up as non-renewal of contract.

Strategic simplicity from Clarkson.
Stupidity from the BBC for paying those millions for a worthless entity.

Really, I thought TG made them a lot of money, I would say over the years he was a good investment.

...so now we get 2 of these shows for the price of 1?

Much as I like TG I think it is the right decision.

... and on that bombshell, goodnight Vienna.

My apologies, i was referring to bullying his co-stars. And just to be pedantic as I'm tired between nights, the bloke he has alleged to have hit hadn't actually said he has been assaulted has he? Rumour, guess work and media rubbish is what we are all working on here. And as Clarkson has previously tried to hit that hideous creature Piers Morgan I'd happily forgive him for running over my cat.

Bbc cop out! Should have sacked him for at least gross misconduct but chose to let his contract expire

I saw the headline that the BBC had dropped Clarkson but it didn't say from what height.

James May sums it up nicely
"As much as i think he's a nob, i do like working with Jeremy Clarkson "
