Another brilliant decision from the idiotic BBC, as I discover they have already axed yet another fledgling drama in Atlantis which I quite liked, especially with its darker take during the second series. Just liked they did with Ripper Street.
Axe the licence fee I say as they clearly do not know how to spend it? Highlighted by the guff they call shows and entertainment on BBC3 and BBC4. :-q
B back
C clarkson
Do you think the beeb will run the risk of sacking him ?.
Goes. I'll have to just get along with the repeats on Dave. :)) in fact what's
Dave going to do for programmes if they stop making Top Gear ? :D it must
Fill up 75% of their schedule.
I'm also one of those who signed the petition to get Clarkson back. On BBC
Radio 4 " any questions" Phil Redmond said as a producer he had to pull actors
Apart ( fighting over the littlest things ) but they used to be never mentioned, it
Was all part of short tempers after a long day. Happened on many shows he worked on and always over car parking or catering ! ;)
They'd have to be very brave or VERY VERY stupid to sack Clarkson. mind you JC has had a rough few years His mum died,his wife apparently left him and he's had health issues. also BBC controller Danny Cohen is actively trying to get him sacked.The BBC cant be a pleasant working environment for him, i wouldn't blame him if he invited the beeb to kiss both his arse cheeks and go to channel 4 or wherever and if he does i bet Hammond and May will go with him which will make the BBC look even more stupid.
I hope so.
Something that isn't Top Gear. Same as if this recent incident had not happened. I have been watching Top Gear since just before the 2002 revamp, and continued watching it until about 2-3 years ago. Eventually the attempts at being funny just grew tiresome. How many times do we need to see Clarkson and/or Hammond, while driving, "accidentally" crash into May?
Bottom line, get rid of Clarkson, and re-revamp the show. If the show is given a shake up, and you know... gets back to being about cars, and not light entertainment, I might start watching again.
Host a motoring programme for years. I'm sure SKY want a piece
Of the huge sales Top Gear brings in.
Can I ask how you feel about signing a petition where not all the facts are known? I mean, if he really did punch a man then I feel the BBC has every right to suspend him. If I punched a work colleague I would expect to get fired, tbh!
I don't feel that the fact this these are telly people makes any difference. It is WRONG to hit your co-workers and looking at the comments of those who signed the petition it seems the vast majority them are forgetting this important aspect.
Now, this is not me saying that he definitely hit that producer. Like I said we do not know the facts right now. But I am uncomfortable that so many people have signed a petition that effectively states that BBC presenters should go unpunished for their behind the scenes behaviour.
Which doesn’t exactly have the best history.
Work mates ( we don't have colleagues ) punch each other, and afterwards
Shake hands and move on. I guess I thought that's what men do ? Maybe I'm
Wrong.
Want a TG style show without Jezza? you might want to have a look at Fifth Gear which is ALOT better than it used to be but i think there is room and an audience for both shows.
A slap, may be more accurate, like the fight between Hugh Grant and Colin
Firth in Bridget Jones diary. :)) Rather than the fight to the death between
Jason Statham and liam Neeson, some seem to think it was. :))
And speaking of Top Gear :
Some say he can run faster than a Camembert and is as smooth as a Beaujolais Nouveau. All we know is it's the French Stig, and he starts this Wednesday on RMC Découverte. Yes, the french version of Top Gear is (almost) there :
And guess what they'll be using as a reasonably priced car ?
A Dacia Sandero. And one of the first to try it will be former Prime Minister François Fillon. Was there a Prime Minister on the original Top Gear ?
No the closest we got to a Prime Minister was John Prescott =))
Nope. It was part of a challenge : which of the three cars they had would start after a fall. None did.
Oh, and BTW, guess how they named the roundest curve on their track ? The Clarkson. Not sure Jeremy will like the tribute.
Refused.
So it's time to play wait and see what this week will bring.
Anyway we somehow missed out on all the drama..
:-/
=))
I've watched a handful of Top Gear episodes. Some were pretty amusing, others pretty boring. All seemed pretty similar.
