That's because some like looking for holes- no matter how irrelevant they are; to the subject. Jeremy Clarkson all over, that Gordon having one eye and his Scottish being has hardly anything to do with the way he runs the country, has it? But it had to be brought into the context by our arrogant and "full of himself" Jeremy I like Jeremy, I like his programmes, and I like his books. But he is arrogant as ****. Blinded by his own abilities, he loses social manners, comes off the tangent, and slates people for their shortcomings. People like Richard Hammond are cool to remain uneffected by him for being called "small" every two minutes, they have adjusted with his arrogance-***-humour type of wit. Laughing at someone's disability and their origin is funny, because it itself is an idiotic act for describing another idiot IMO.

I actually love Jeremy from distance, but I have to admit to the shortcomings of that wrinkly, fat-bellied, motormouth, corkend-ish, midlife crisis hit boyracer Clarkson

Had you refrained from the obscene language, your post might have carried a bit of weight!

I haven't seen anyone on this thread displaying "glee" over the fact that he has one eye.

Pointing it out yes, and making some amusing comments, but I don't see anyone saying "I'm glad he lost his eye coz I hate him!"

He is not such a genius on this occasion. He has played a cheap and commonly used dice for publicity. Doubtlessly it should bring him more fortune from the masses, but with the critical and personal eye of mine, nothing extraordinary this time; to be classed as a genius.

Both Jeremy and I admire a man in common, though. his name is Hugh Grant Jeremy stands out for that, as liking for Hugh Grant is slightly extraordinary.

Not bad

See! You didn't have to call him Scottish this- and- that, nor did you have to look into his glass eye You can still slate him effectively without going HA-HA to his other holes. (Please don't mock the "hole" word )

He always takes cheap shots, because he knows that some PC media type will start off on a rant about him bringing more publicity for him and TG. As long as people tune in and the viewing figures are good, he'll continue to spout this kind of thing from his pedestal that the anti JC types have had a big role in errecting.

That's what they fail to see: the ONLY real way of 'hurting' a TV celebrity is to ignore them and don't tune in to their programs. Viewing figures fall, they become expendable and can't afford to say anything controversial that might give the execs a chance to pull them off air.

I'm a big fan of JC though!

Hugh grant is a t*at! cheating on Liz Hurley with a cheap *****, indeed!

Whoa there Super-PC-Man!

You have a pop at Clarkson for insulting people then do the same yourself FAIL - pot and kettle Martin, it really takes away any credibility you may have had!

How do you feel about the golly wog comment, bet you spat out your muesli and yogurt all over the Guardian.

Thanks for feeling offended for the rest of us, tough job but some holier than though PC protector has to do it still...means i can enjoy the likes of Clarkson

Without reading through all the replies here I'd just like to quickly post my view.

I'm Scottish, and what Clarkson said didn't register as offensive in any way. I have always liked him, because even when things on Top Gear are staged, you still feel that the things he says are genuinly his own opinions, and not the opinions of the people who make the show.

That in my opinion, is what separates Clarkson from 99% of the numpties on TV.

Given she was 6k miles away at the time, I'd forgive him for thinking he wouldn't get caught

Begs the question though, whats worse paying for a BJ from a hooker when your miles away from the Mrs or having an affair?
