Jeremy Clarkson to Quit Top Gear and the BBC Altogether, Unnamed Source Suggests

You know the saying - it ain't over till the fat lady sings. Radio Times' tip informs that ol' Captain Power "may leave the Corporation [BBC], even if he's cleared of punch allegations." How did it all came to end in such a Shakespearian-like dramatic manner?

While all three Top Gear presenters are cracking a laugh out of this commotion on Twitter, the previously mentioned publication claims that Clarkson has told friends that he didn't aim a punch at the producer, but "handbags and pushing" were on the menu.

Apparently, Jeremy Clarkson was so fed up and hungry after a day's worth of filming in typical British weather that hunger got the best of him and the delayed lunch presented to him by the producer angered Clarkson to such an extent that he got physical. Well...

I'm not taking parts here, even though I admit I'm on the #BringBackClarkson side. British tabloids have always reported uncertain information in a shady manner, so the truth is somewhere at the middle in my book. Heck, I think that these murky waters will clear in a week, give or take a few days.

In other Clarkson punch incident-related news, the Radio Times reports that the fiasco prompted the BBC director-general to resign. Furthermore, a disciplinary meeting has been cooked up by the British Broadcasting Corporation to assess what the future holds for Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson.

Let's be real here! If Clarkson gets the boot and the BBC2 motoring show will come to an end, "he’ll be fine. The other broadcasters will bite his arm off,” as suggested by the same unnamed source close to Jezza. The Clarkson-May-Hammond cocking about cars formula will still work just fine, regardless of the show's name.

Editor's note: I wonder why the BBC didn't lift a finger when Clarkson punched Piers Morgan back in 2004...
