        Clarkson is a presenter. He does lines/interviews which are presumably (NCFC) - Jim, Mar 12, 10:44:23
        
        he obviously writes his own hilarious ironic lines (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Mar 12, 15:42:56

        Smacks of setting it all up for a triumphant return if you ask me. either that or (NCFC) - Jim, Mar 12, 10:37:25
        
        Well I disagree with that. He IS Top Gear and he's media catnip (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:39:15
        
        no presenter should be bigger than the show.... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:44:06
        
        I don't understand where this is going now. I'm bowing out (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:45:51
    - totally agree. (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:23:32
      - the final 3 episodes are not 'in the can' he was due to be filming the studio segments for (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Mar 12, 10:29:14
        
        fair enough... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:30:55
        
        He was suspended on Tuesday, with the show to be filmed on Wednesday. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Mar 12, 10:37:18
        
        i dont think its particularly rocket science.... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:41:51
        
        lol (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Mar 12, 10:44:10
        
        How are they being punished? (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:34:28
        
        well... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:39:29
        
        Right (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:42:24
        
        They're not, are they? (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Mar 12, 10:34:01
      - The final three episodes aren't in the can. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Mar 12, 10:27:56
      - The features are prerecorded, the show isn't. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:24:02
        
        so just do it without him.... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:25:34
        
        Ok (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:26:48
    - It'd cause more controversy if the show went ahead without him (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:22:48
      - but its not every single episode where he causes controversy (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:24:57
        
        They're not going to film the show without him, are they. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 12, 10:26:25
        
        i dont see why not.... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 10:32:06

        yep maybe.... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Mar 12, 11:08:30
