The much more we discover about Jeremy Clarkson’s most recent drama, the uglier it gets. Following the BBC hastily suspended the host and canceled the broadcast of this season’s remaining episodes, British tabloid The Mirror reports that the entire point erupted when Clarkson got angry over his dinner not being served on time.
We’re taking this with a grain of salt, as the claims haven’t been confirmed elsewhere and The Mirror hasn’t got the most spotless record, but the allegations are not totally surprising: The report holds that Clarkson was suspended following throwing a punch at Prime Gear producer Oisin Tymon, 36, for not having his meal ready at the finish of a shoot.
“It was all over a catering concern,” the unnamed insider told The Mirror. “They came to the finish of filming right after a long day and Jeremy found that no food had been laid on. He just saw red and hit the assistant producer, who he blamed for not having organized the food. He snapped.”
The Mirror goes on to say that Clarkson, along with co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May, were just days away from finalizing new 3-year contracts for Prime Gear. The tabloid reports that all negotiations have been suspended, and “insiders speculated over regardless of whether the series could continue without [Clarkson] if he is sacked.”
Even though fans may possibly reel at the believed of Clarkson being fired, it is a distinct possibility provided the host’s recent track record. The year 2014 located Clarkson at the center of 3 separate uproars more than the use of alleged racist remarks on-camera, just the most current in a extended, lengthy timeline of Clarkson stomping willfully into self-constructed controversy.
In apologizing for his most current flub, Clarkson went so far as to say publicly that one particular a lot more error would leave him jobless. He also wrote in a newspaper column, “I’ve been told by BBC chiefs that I’m drinking at the final likelihood saloon,” and recently tweeted what now looks like a prescient omen.
