hundreds of thousands of people die every day in poor parts of the world.

Where's your heart for them?


I do hate the current "first world problem" criticising that seems to be popular of late.

There's always someone worse off than you. That doesnt minimise the impact of a particular problem on you just because someone is suffering somewhere.

I couldnt give a fuck about the thousands of starving african children who will die tomorrow - i cant do anything about it and it doesnt effect me so why waste my time and energy worrying about it?

I will "worry" about things relevant to my life. I dont care if that makes me selfish. Most people are the same even if they dont want to admit it. giving a few quid to charity or doing the odd charity run hardly gives people a "moral highground" IMO.


Sure, topgear isnt a big deal in the big scheme of things, but to many its a bit of silly light hearted entertainment thats now likely to die. hence, like arseholes, everyone has an opinion and has a right to voice it, even if 10 billion people have died in some crash or disaster.....

if the beeb wish to continue with TG im sure it will still draw in many watchers whoever fronts it, but a rival show fronted by loud mouth JC will draw in more, thats fact

A bit off topic but them adverts on the tv make me laugh about the people all over the world who live in poverty.

Here goes.

Poor tracy has to walk 40 miles to get to the river for clean water. Why doesnt her family move and live closer to the river.

i agree with you to some extent Warren, but losing a tv programme that you enjoy should hardly be termed a problem. clarkson not having his contract renewed has been described as 'tragic' which you must agree is overstating it somewhat in light of all of those parents having their children taken from then in an accident?

I agree Steve. No doubt some program makers will get in touch with him and start to make a new car show.

They know it will take off and make them money cause they know how many people like clarkson.

thats it as from a business point of view its a no brainer

It's Czech Mate

Love all the moral high ground stuff on here

Plenty of footballers and rugby players punch people at work, in public in front of children and families......do they get fired?

I take it none of you moral angels watch football or rugby then given your strong opinions about it

It's Czech Mate

Feel free to start a thread about it then

Mustn't be viewed in the same light when a load of women trip each other up, cry, slap and bite on TV.

And they should have the same treatment
All over paid ass holes, the law and social standards should apply to all.

It was my understanding that he won't be having his contract renewed, that's not being "fired" !

It's Czech Mate

A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet

cossiestu

Have to wait and see what the other two do, will they tell the BBC to stick it too?
I can just see the replacement Top Gear being really dull, just like it was in the 70's and 80's. I'm sure William Woolard and Angela Rippon would love to come back....

Yeh, showing my age just a bit there pmsl

Because apparently global warming will cause massive floods and they'll drown beside the river


Not like people havent starved, flooded and been drowned for thousands of years or anything !

stevieturbo

I'm sure a lot will depend on the wordings and timings within their contracts.

cossiestu

I'm sure, it won't take much for Hammond to piss off and go back to that science, (or whatever it was, I didn't watch) so he'll be ok. Just leaves May to join up with someone dull and bingo, the most boring motoring show on telly...

gjh

Getting a bit tired of hearing about this now, its only a car show, pretty sure I can do something else with my hour at 8 on a Sunday night. Honestly is I see one more fucking facebook status!

Jay,

Just found this

cossiestu

It wasn't that long ago that old Willy Wooly did it, he was in that clip where Tiff tested Laurence Bristow's Labbats car round Brands.

It's got a lot less 'Stuffy' since JC did it...

5:30 minutes on is best

Carlos-Titx

Global warming is a political name for what naturally occurs.

Climate change is a proven natural occurrence.

It's all about the money money money.

yep thats defo right.

STAFFY OWNER

Couldn't give a flying fuck, as foreigner has already commented, there's more important stuff going on in the world whether it affects you directly or not.

It's Czech Mate

Start a thread about them if they concern you so much then rather than on one about JC, nobody forced you to read it

fuzzy

because someone else maybe gets away with it isn't an excuse.
if you went into your works canteen and smacked a staff members face bursting their lip while screaming abuse at them (apparently) because there was no pies left, only prepacked sandwiches, would you consider that acceptable? would you be surprised if your boss sacked you even though you explained you thought it was fine because football players do it ?

+1 my thoughts exactly

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

At the end of the day opinions are like arseholes everyone's got one, but the fact remains top gear is by far and away the most popular car show on TV, fact, and it will be missed by loads in its original format.

fuzzy

im far more concerned about third world poverty, famine and global warming to be bothered about a fud on a car program.

fuzzy

maybe so but like I said before people don't like change.you never know maybe whats coming next will be better ? look on the positive side.

cossiestu

I'm being positive.


Positive that, whatever happens to Top Gear, it'll be shit! Hopefully not though....

D1on

Clarkson looks best here! ^^

foreigneRS

Jay,

iTrader: (4)
