RE: Jeremy Clarkson
Over 1,000,000 people have now signed the 'Reinstate Jeremy Clarkson' petition, the second-highest number in the history of Change.org. I think it's safe to say that if Clarkson is sacked by the BBC, the popularity of Top Gear, were it to continue in his absence, would sink like a stone. The enduring popularity of Top Gear and by extension Jeremy Clarkson is obvious by the measly audience figures it managed for that substitute documentary last Sunday.

If the worst does happen and ITV secure his services (and hopefully those of May and Hammond as well), the viewers will flock across the divide. As a fan of the Clarkson, May and Hammond camaraderie, I know I will.
