Was it offensive to lorries that Clarksons one caught fire?

And also it was very offensive to porta cabins tha Hammond drove a truck straight through one

Maybe the good people of Ethiopia would like to write in and complain that May drove through 600litres of bottled mineral water?

I feel like complaining as well, not because it's offensive but because it's pretty lame if it was meant to be funny.

In all fairness the vast majority of what Clarkson and Co say on Top Gear is tongue in cheek which the 'joke' obviously was. Frankly not in the same league as Ross and Brand.

So you listened to the Brand/Ross show fully then did you, or just read the papers?

I started to listen but got bored with the childishness of it after a couple of minutes.

Pair of twats, especially Brand

I think this whole thing is getting out of control. First Harty & Hawsey, then Brand & Ross, now Clarkson.

Can you not say anything without offending people? It's absolutely pathetic.

Why don't these do gooders, concentrate on the real issues that are effecting this country.


I completely agree with you, but in a way I suppose it is not much differant to someone posting something on a message board, and some find it offensive / wrong, others couldnt give to hoots about it.

But with the BBC I think people are quicker to jump on the bandwagon as complainers, as they are paying a licence fee.

As a matter of fact JC was quite badly hurt following his lorry going through the brick wall according to the BBC.

And there was a derogatory mention of "window lickers" in my copy of the Observer this Sunday.

Although unless it was a clever piece of forgery by the paperboy, I expect it appeared in everyone else's too. Interesting to see if they're inundated with complaints.

If Supernanny had made a similar joke on her programme, yes it would have been inappropriate and thousands would have complained. Top Gear is full of near the knuckle jokey remarks and (nearly) noone bats an eyelid. It's CONTEXT and on Sunday it was funny.

f***ing hell, this country must have the highest percentage of professional hand-wringers in the civilised world. It seems nobody can say ANYTHING without generating hundreds if not thousands of complaints from these slack-jawed layabout dickheads who have nothing better to do with their time than get all morally offended and outraged on behalf of somebody else.

If I ever, EVER feel moved to complain about something I've seen or heard on the tellybox, then I'd like somebody to take me outside and shoot me in the ear immediately.

Absolutley 100% totally, nailed-on accurate.

I find your remarks flippant and downright insulting. There are plenty of people in this country who would love to have 2 good working ears but you advocate having one of yours shot off.
