Jeremy Clarkson has been at it again. This time offending Truck drivers by accusing them of murdering prostitutes.

In the latest Episode of Top Gear (Season 12) which aired last week in the UK, Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson made a joke about truck drivers being murderers, in reference to UK truck driver Steve Wright who was convicted of murdering prostitutes earlier this year.
Unfortunately, as is the case these days, not everyone saw it as a joke. So far the BBC has fielded thousands of complaints from angry truckies.
Check out the vid, it appears in the first few seconds, the rest of the vid is worth watching too.


The cool thing is that someone has made a platform style game where you control Jeremy and get to dodge trucks as you try to pick up money.

Specially when the joke was hilarious. Worth watching for sure.

<3 Top Gear.

He's definitely funny. If he wasnt doing this attention getting stuff, Top Gear wouldnt be as good as it is. having said that some one is going to deck him one day (which will probably be good for ratings).

This country has gone down the drain.

On one hand, you get all the fuckers and the media constantly complaining that we're too PC, and we're always bending over for Islam and shit like that (well, we are)

On the other hand, the SAME FUCKING PEOPLE, and the same media, are the one's that complain about shit like this (and the Russel Brand/Jonathan Ross answering machine incident). I mean, for fuck sake. What the fuck is wrong with the retards in this country.


Oh, and to top it all off, despite how Labour have fucked up the place to no end, they still somehow kept their seat during a by election in a constituency in Scotland:

It is basically down to the fact that the BBC are funded by the TV licenses which we have to pay in the UK. As a result, there are thousands of old bored housewives with nothing better to do but complain about the smallest thing which appears on TV before the watershed (9pm), because they think it is their right to complain and have action taken.

Perfect example of those who complain

Could have sworn there was already a topic on this..

Anyway, that was one seriously funny episode and he was still explaining that being a lorry driver is hard work. I can't wait for next Sunday

I watched the BBC news when they reported this and they had what I guess is the equvilent of the prostitutes union on.  The jokes, and mental images I had where too much to grasp

Edit:  ps, clarkson for pm

Clarksons one of the few who won't bend to PC. Hell the channels are doing it with the Simpsons now, cutting huge meaningless chunks out of the episodes in a way that would make a chimp with a scalpel unhappy.

So do they drench the show with 3 5min commercials?

Some people need to learn wtf a joke is. Fuck em, Clarkson is a legend. End of.

In fact, they'd better not watch Mock the Week: they talked about lorry drivers having no interest other than rape and gaffer-tape

They say that out of the 7 million watching, 500 made a complaint. Thats not even a percentage! If you don't like it don't bloody watch it!

Was about to say that. This show is one of the best on the BBC. People literally wait around for it to come back on. If an insignificant amount of people dont like it, they can FUCK RIGHT OFF! Maybe we should give Russell Brand and Johnathon Ross their telephone numbers. LOL

I don't believe they actually "accidentally took a wrong turn onto a road where they test suspension" and a lot of the show is staged.

But harmless banter like that shouldn't be taken so seriously.

The prostitutes weren't complaining. lol

I have always just taken stuff like that as planned, and them just trying to keep the commentary interesting.

Of course it is staged, they arent going to let those three just drive those large trucks haphazardly across the country without a plan

Oh of course it makes for much better viewing when stuff like that happens. But that was really obvious when you see the "wrong turn" that they took would've clearly had those bumps all over the road and as these guys drive for a living, you'd think would notice something like that. lol Plus they could have easily avoided it when you watch the footage closely.

But if I wanted to see haphazard and dangerous experiments without a plan, I'll watch Mythbusters.
