As someone who always kinda liked Top Gear and finds him charming and funny, the guy is a massive piece of shit whose "controversial opinions for money every Sunday" gig finally caught up with him. Good riddance.

@CountScrofula he's the type of person who makes ching Chong jokes about Chinese people in his local pub.
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
@Ryannnnnn Yep exactly. It just took a while to sink in I had family who were unapologetically left and antiracist and liked top gear so I'd watch with them and kinda blinked through the occasional racism which was, y'know, not great but it is what it is.
So [b]he’s[/b] the one who wrote that horrid "dream" about her. He needs to be gone, someone who could think that up is vile as far as I’m concerned. Another fool who thought "free" speech means "consequence-free".

@Gangstress It's a pathetic way to earn a living, isn't it? Gossiping and backstabbing on TV and social media? While people like paramedics only earn a fraction of what Piers Morgan etc are paid 😡

@Fluffybull hes basically The Sun newspaper in human form. Its a sad way to earn a living completely.
He blocked me on twitter after i sent him pictures of him with saville, rolf Harris etc. Funny really 😆

@bijouxbroussard I've disliked him ever since he punched the Top Gear producer cos there was no hot food; and the BBC decided not to renew his contract, effectively saying "For your behaviour, we're going to allow you to pursue a multimillion pound contract with Amazon where you can have COMPLETE freedom to say and do whatever you want; and let that be a lesson to you!" 😣
Hopefully he will never be seen on screen again

Should have been banned years ago, all those racist comments on Top Gear.

@InOtterWords Actually he was sacked for punching a producer! And yeah. Trash. It took a little bit more for people on my end of the podn to clue in to how bad he was.

@InOtterWords They really filter this stuff out when they dub in another language. I mean I knew about the punch that got him sacked from the bbc and I'm not an avid watcher so maybe I just haven't seen the episodes where it happened, but I had no idea about such comments. 😶

I need to watch more stuff in original language, irregardless

@Elessar His BBC fracka was with a producer and we don't think it was part of the televised show(s). He's a buffoon, Hammond is a whiz kid and May is just a quiet smarty pants. Actually a great trio for motoring shows.

Good. I don't use the word often but he's a bigot. The worst Britain has to offer in a person, a closed minded, racist, sexist bully.
SW-User
@Ryannnnnn And the thing is, doesn't he just know it... He's not as bad as Katie Hopkins yet though...

That dude keeps getting into nonsense and he's a pretty stupid guy in general too
Fine by me. I used to find him funny during the early years of the BBC Top Gear, When Amazon got the show I started watching it, but I never finished the first season. Somehow all the money and cosseting resulted in a show that was considerably less funny overall.
I don't much like the guy and clearly he can be a slew of adjectives and nouns that are best spat at someone with a touch of venom on them, but I think calling what he wrote a 'hate crime' is wandering dangerously close to a snowflake forge.

I hate that guy, he's got something very wrong with him, he's exemplifies everything I could possibly hate about a human

I cant stand his humour
He lives to stir the pot…he’s a cheeky bas-$&$ but he loves the limelight…
nedkelly · 61-69, M
As we say in Australia - pommy bastard
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
I guess he wasn't woke?
lumberjackslam · 41-45, M
I thought that was just British humour. Honestly I was more worried about the punching the guy who didnt have his dinner ready. But to appear on TV you should have to stay under 400 lbs...
@lumberjackslam He's not humorous at all.
lumberjackslam · 41-45, M
@V00doo he's probably the smartest of the 3 Top Gear yahoos but I could take it or leave it
