    Apparently he has had a 'fracas' with a producer. So whether or not he has lamped him remains to be seen.

    That's the end of him i suspect.
    Wouldn't be surprised to see Suzi Perry take his place.

    Doesn't he own the rights to Top Gear?

    I think he sold (or part sold) the production company last year.

    It won't work without clarkson and he knows this. If they sack him he'll just go off and do something similar elsewhere and make even more money. iTV will be getting erect over this news

    I hope the same can be said for the spanners and Holloway.

    I think they can go on without him. If the other two stick around, they'd help sell it to the audience. It worked for Have I Got News For You. Gray and Keys thought they were Sky Sports. I think it's just highly unlikely they'll find the perfect replacement first time.

    clarkson being marmite to so many is the appeal, the bloke is superb for that show and has worked well with hammond and may to the point where it is at its best for years

    How can they do this to a great British icon?

    He pisses off the exact people who should be pissed off.

    It is another step to stopping all free speech. Comedy or not.

    Whatever you think of Clarkson, he is the 'talent' on the show whilst producers are ten a penny (and doubtless he well knows it).

    Sincerely hope this is is the end of that old shit so that I don't have to have it inflicted on me any more. Worried that it will turn out to be some publicity stunt to get the ratings up.

    Agreed, used to be very good and very funny, but it's too samey now.

    Very mysterious, all the expensive filmed segments for the series have been done already, and the series has several episodes to go.

    As stunts go, I think this tops having a couple doing it cowgirl style on the centre circle of the pitch, but that's just my opinion.

    Clarkson goes,one less person who stands out against the mediocre bullshit which his critics seem to be in favour of.
