We rednecks are offended that he has been suspended.
I think I will write to complain.

(or, in other words, let us make this into one more politically correct 
boring show so no one will want to watch it anyway)

So, when the producer said  The show's executive producer, Andy Wilman, 
described last year as an anus horribilis for the programme he was 
referring to Jeremy?


But the irritation was the charm, like how someone so irritating could 
be so... irritating.  It made it fun to watch him be subjected to 
unpleasant situations.

As the Lady Dowager in Downton Abbey remarked, there is a point at  
which malice is no longer amusing, and you've just reached it.


Top Gear has it's good points, but being a complete jerk on the air
