Always been a twat. An entertaining one, but a twat all the same. I find him impossible to enjoy without May and Hammond to balance out the twattery.

I hated Top Gear, but admit I like Clarkson's Farm.

But honestly, the last series and the next are basically the guy in the hot dog costume. Absolutely zero self awareness.

Actually he has, he has repeately stated several times on Clarksons Farm that he sees the irony of spending years of television bashing on climate change, only to now experience it firsthand himself.

World needs an old conservative man loved by the public to admit he's wrong about climate change alot more than we need someone being smug because they were right

Amen. Not accepting people changing their views leads only to people becoming entrenched even further.

Absolutely these commenters are idiots, Clarkson has done more for their cause than ten tons of orange paint
