Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond And James May Return To The BBC
Auto News

Nearly five years after being sacked from Top Gear for racist thuggery Jeremy Clarkson has returned to the BBC. Albeit on the BBC News website. The racist and his two buddies are promoting their one-off The Grand Tour Special on Amazon Prime. The racist and his two commrades are given extensive written coverage on BBC News to plug the Amazon Prime show which airs on Friday, December 18. Hey, we’re even giving the show a plug by writing about what the BBC has written. Admittedly the BBC does employ better grammar than us with the near 1,000 word free advertisement. I mean article.

So why would the BBC promote someone they sacked over racism, thuggery, and violence towards a member of the production crew that was death-nail of Clarkson’s stewardship of Top Gear? Turns out Clarkson has old friends in new places over at the BBC, and old friends forgive and forget better than long term enemies. The previous management who saw Clarkson as a bygone era have gone or moved into other positions. And time heals old wounds, in so far as people forget rather than forgive.

Clarkson is a countdown conundrum, his writing is brilliant, his presentation style is engagingly hilarious, he is the Plato of everything automotive, a modern-day philosopher. And he is also a racist and part-time thug. If popularity was a currency then Jeremy Clarkson would be extremely rich.

He is actually very rich, moving to Amazon Prime turned Clarkson into a multi-millionaire overnight. The Grand Tour Special will add many more zeros to an already estimated Net-Worth of $25-50 million.

Now it’s time for me to buy some crap off Amazon.
