No doubt the BBC will have to do a "full investigation" as in the Ross/Brand case. When the decision of that is out, why not write to the BBC as an "appeal on behalf of Mr Clarkson." Post it on here, and a couple of other sites (piston heads etc).

Then see how many people complain about the result of the investigation, compared to how many compained about the incident.

This is getting daft.

So- lots of minority groups get to publicly complain and therefore some attention.

But I bet the viewing figures for Top Gear are through the roof next week.

And I bet the same goes for when BrandRoss are back on the air too...

I'm gonna complain about Strictly Come Choir sh1te - it's all a waste of my money

Frankly I am appalled. I have been driving my truck for fifty years and I hardly ever murder any prostitutes...

The funny thing is, I love Chris Morris. Now there is a man who knows how to make a truly horrific joke out of something really nasty. I have the Jam DVD set and there are some sketches on there that blur comedy and shock into a frightening darkness, that I love. I am careful with it though, it is not for the faint of heart.

How many peeps would go to a Roy Chubby Brown gig and then complain about the sexual or controversial content in it..?
Non as they all know what to expect...

So when JC says something like "Some say he's eats babys...blar blar all we know is he's called the STIG" no one complains about that... as it's just IDLE BANTER.

Please British Public, get a grip, and stop being so NANNY STATE.
rant over mode... and all is well in the world.

To be fair, he's a fairly equal opportunities offender.

And JAM WAS RUBBISH! This from the man who did Brass Eye too. I did like Goitre though, not often Adam and Joe did satire.

Jam is freaky and is definitely not for the faint of heart. I love it when the doctor blinds himself though, then asks to be taken to his car... cracks me up (when the mother comes in asking why his daughter was prescribed heroin)

Jam was good. I like Morris' stuff a lot. Claim to fame: I was at the premiere of "My Wrongs 8245-8249".

Bump.
