Jeremy Clarkson’s firing was pinnacle of ‘perfect storm’ says former producer

Clarkson, who had been a host on the popular BBC show since 1988 and helmed the show since 2002 along with hosts Richard Hammond and James May, was involved in an altercation with “Top Gear” producer Oisin Tymon which the British media dubbed a “fracas”. “Yes, it’s the head of BBC news”, Clarkson confirmed. “I got a C and two Us, and I’m now on a superyacht in the Med”.

A BBC spokesman could not reach Harding for comment. “Matt LeBlanc?’ but when I saw him I was like, ‘He’s good”. “You have these meetings where they say can James May still say cock or will the BBC sue us”.

Now the four have reunited to form Amazon’s original series The Grand Tour.

‘Like them or loathe them, they are still doing their thing, ‘ the producer told attendees. “[Top Gear] was a great show and they f***** it up”.

On the new series, Wilman said: “I didn’t watch it because there was a lot of pain for me, it was everything that I did, we gave everything to it”. And every episode of the show will be available in 4K resolution, finally giving us the long-awaited chance to count the pores on James May’s face.

Mr Wilman, who is working with the former Top Gear trio on the new show, joked that they moved to Amazon for “money”. We’re in this new world now.

Mr Wilman admitted he does not yet know exactly when the show will launch, or if it will be released weekly or dropped all in one go, in the style of Netflix releases.

“This is not a trailer but I put something together to show we have been busy”, Wilman explained. “It’s ‘those three do something retarded, next week they do something else retarded”. I walked past a bookies in Leeds and saw my name on there, and I thought: “What the hell’s going on there?’ I was top of the list. I’ll be very happy that it can be seen everywhere”.
