jerermy clarkson..

[Andy Allen]

so whats your veiws on his out spoken outburst, do you think its been blown out of all proportion...

 

[doug boardley]

absolutely!! I can't stand all this pc stuff. I always thought us British were renowned for having a sense of humour?

 

[Gazzer]

I love Top Gear but Clarkson is a numpty. I reckon Top Gear is scripted but the One show he was trying to be funny but it failed and why he is so surprised that it has upset people is beyond me .
I did see the original program but only caught the part where he said the train shouldn't stop when someone jumps in front of it ! I dont call that humour....the look on the other people in the show was funny though. I dont think they knew what to make of it !

maybe out of proportion but inevitable !

 

[Andy Allen]

its obvious what he said was ment as a joke, maybe in bad taste, but thats clarkson for you, imo the unions are only kicking up such a fuss about it to keep there cause for strike action on the front pages, which has kind of backfired on him..

 

[Stewart]

Hit the nail on the head Andy..... Unions using it for there own publicity. Obviously the comments were tongue in cheek, though maybe a bit early for the watching audience. In saying that, this country is seriously loosing it's sense of humour, with the pc brigade banging it's drum even louder and the media in general scared to say boo to a ghost. With the country on its backside and a bleak future for many, you would at least think that the British sense of humour would prevail and help lift everyones spirits.........

Blown totally out of proportion.............everyone knows Clarkson come out with crap every now and then.............he still makes me laugh though.

I like Clarkson's straight talking and he said it as a Joke and I saw it as one. The unions will jump on anything to get their name in the press that little bit more. I think that's more of an offence.

 

[kilty55]

clarksons not my cup of tea at all but im sure his comment was tongue in cheek,just been jumped on my the unions to stay in the limelight

 

[Alan.P]

I haven't seen the clip in question, but, if you take JC you get JC, warts and all, I personnaly like the guy, he tells it as he sees it, move on............... my 2penneth worth lol

 

[Ian]

I think he's funny, I like his sense of humour. His timing isn't always great and people always want to complain about something or other. All these people who think Clarkson is offensive should go and see a Jimmy Carr live show, that'll give them something to be outraged about!

 

[Andy Allen]

the BBC have recieved over 21,000 complaints over jc comments......

 

[paul flight]

i do think that maybe he should have said drive over them insteated of shooting them .!!!!

 

[DHTiling]

the BBC have recieved over 21,000 complaints over jc comments......

What a bunch of SAD :incazzato:they are... Crack on Jeremy and take no notice of the doo gooders doing bot all but whinge about naff all....:smilewinkgrin:

 

[b30 villain]

still remember when he said all long distance lorry drivers were rapists and prostitute killers. Only about 20 complaints with that one:lol:

 

[Dan]

Was it Mexico he annoyed with his comments saying they're all whatever and whatever. Had their president or whatever complaining to our government about him?!? lol

I think more people should be like him, we'd get things done. We could do with a JC as an advisor to the government. He'd cut out a lot of the crap for sure. Don't know whether he'd cause a war or something instead but we don't seem to be bad at that anyway.

 

[Andy Allen]

i remember the mexico thing, when he said all mexicans were fat,lazy,and flatulent, and there food was like refried sick...:lol:

 

[Dan]

Thats the one! haha

He's got a way with words.

 

[macten]

Does the one show even get over 20 000 viewers?

Get a sense of humour Britain it's embarrassing. Just made the unions look even more stupid.
I bet Cameron is grateful as hell.

I agree with the bit where he said "How dare they strike"

 

[doug boardley]

I saw a sign in a shop window today, it read "WE'D RATHER HAVE 1000 Taliban CUSTOMERS THAN 1 BRITISH SOLDIER" ........................................................




Who said Undertakers don't have a sense of humour? lol... (bet some union jumps on that too)

 

[TheWrightTiler]

clarksons alwys been gobby, thats what he does, me im a union man and i nearly wet myself, agree with dave put jc in the cabinet as minister for transport or justice or benefits and then watch the sparks fly

me i think hes great and straight spoken and if what he says offends you then turn the channel over, grow a pair and get on with it instead of whinging, we are fast becomming a nation of whingers and moaners, christ were all gonna be french nationals lol

 

[bobbynz]

Yeah we have a couple like him at the moment. Paul Henry who made fun of some Indian politician named .:yikes: He really couldnt help himself, would you? He got sacked by the TV channel he worked for so he's gone over to Aust. to rark them up, good on him.
Now we have an ex politician now radio announcer saying that someone should go into a TV station and shoot all their journalists.He was joking! Been on suspension for 3 weeks now. Personally I dont really care, Its what media personalities do to get the ratings up is all.
However, that being said, how many times has someone walked into a workplace and shot all their workmates? And ...Should we show some respect to National political leaders and the position they hold?
Just something to think about.
I dont think we really have the luxury of poking fun at one another Publicly these days because we have too many crazies amongst us that have hurt to many of us and the pain is still there for many. I think that sometimes what might have once been said in jest, now cuts quite close to the bone for some people.
It might be something funny to some but might touch a raw nerve of others.
It's a shame but thats the state of this world today. A good comedian should know his audience. It appears that this time JC did not know 20,000 of his .

 

[nybor62]

jc is tops it was only a joke

 

[White Room]

There was about 5'000 complaints until it hit the papers then sudddenly 15'000 extra climbed out the woodwork...

I like the way JC says it as it is..

 

[Gall.B]

If I said I was going to do the same to a member of your family would you take it as a joke? The mans a facist coward! Seeing as my wife was out I wasnt happy.

 

[Ian]

I think the whole point of it is, it was a joke in bad taste, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't actually follow through and act on his comments.
