AS YOU HAVE likely heard, Jeremy Clarkson has found himself at the centre of yet another ‘fracas’. And this time, his behaviour is threatening the future of Top Gear.
The presenter has been suspended by the BBC after allegedly punching a producer after there was no catering at a filming location.
BBC has confirmed that Sunday’s episode of Top Gear will not air with the remaining two episodes also unlikely to air.
The whole thing has set social media alight with everyone and their mother weighing in on the matter. SNeedless to say, opinion is divided.
His daughter has pleaded with the BBC to take him back
