Some of the tweets are pretty tragic. People saying that he should be killed for getting Clarkson sacked and wishing various other dreadful things on him.
Clarkson Suspended from BBC and no top gear this week!!

It is though, two knobend presenters (Clarkson and May) and a third who wouldn't look out of place on CeeBeebies.
They use The Stig too much, it's trite, predictable, oafish and about as funny as a kick in the nostrils.
Can you tell I'm a fan?
And this thing that's broke makes how much (... and was growing) in £££ for the BBC?

The point I was making is that the Top Gear franchise has been growing year on year bringing increased revenue into the BBC.
If, in business, something is working, growing and making a profit, you don't change the formula that's working. When something begins to slow or stops, then you make changes. Top Gear was hardly shrinking.

As a viewer I'm only interested in the quality of programmes, not how much it makes for the BBC.

Which is your right :thup:
However there are many people out there who found the shows line up more than acceptable. Again, many more that didn't.
If we all liked the same thing, the world would be a boring place.

have the BBC said they will show the recorded bits yet for the show? Of course they will not being the studio stuff.

I get the distinct impression that people are blaming the BBC for all of this. The way I see it is Jeremy Clarkson had a choice to assault or not assault someone. He chose to assault someone thus ending Top Gear. I can't see how people aren't pissed off with him and are directing their anger at the BBC???

Some say...... JC is an oaf and a bully, others say he is a brilliant journalist/presenter.
All we know is, he's gone.

As far as I'm aware Clarkson owns the trademark and brand that is Top Gear. Bit of a catch 22 really, I don't think Top Gear would work without Clarkson if he sold the brand to the beed, and I don't think anyone else would want to produce the show after all of this if he took it with him.

Let's not judge all top gear fans by the actions of a minority - everything will always have a moronic bunch of idiots who don't know how to act

He's already sold his share of Top Gear to the BBC, so doesn't have anything to take with him.
