More story emerges:

“Clarkson didn’t like the idea of sandwiches and demanded a juicy steak. He wanted his own way.

“The producer was being blamed for not arranging hot food.

“Clarkson didn’t hit him — but he did use every possible swear word you can imagine. He had to be held back. The producer just stood there looking embarrassed.

“The general manager ended up cooking Clarkson’s steak. He apologised the next morning.”
So he didn't actually connect.

Quote:
Insiders say the director of BBC Television Danny Cohen is “out to get” Clarkson because of his out-spoken antics.

The star told friends Cohen had “thrown him to the wolves” when the team were attacked while filming in Argentina last year.
Still waters run deep.

Paywall linky

Additional: Petition now has >650,000 signatures.

From Guido Fawks (Same link)

The Beeb is much more comfortable with Leftie comedians than a bloke who cracks jokes about shooting striking public sector workers and is mates with David Cameron.

Some at the BBC won’t be happy until Top Gear is fronted by a one-legged lesbian hippy driving a car made out of recycled cans and running on lentils.
Herein lies the nub of the problem IMO.
