'Top Gear' host Jeremy Clarkson suspended after 'fracas' - Kostenloses Hörbuch

Top Gear- the world's most popular car show- could be canceled for the rest of this season.

Host Jeremy Clarkson is accused of hitting a producer after filming last week in Newcastle, England.

The BBC has suspended Clarkson and canceled this Sunday's broadcast of the show...and the remaining 3 episodes this season could also be in jeopardy. According to the Mirror, the incident comes just weeks before Clarkson and his co-hosts James May and Richard Hammond were scheduled to sign new 3-year contracts for the show.

It's been a rough 12 months for Top Gear...the British communications regulator Ofcom ruled the show broke UK broadcast indecency rules for a racial slur used in an episode...and the crew was attacked by locals while filming in Argentina, who claimed the show was poking fun at the 1982 Falklands War.
