Is Top Gear Over? A Tribute to Its Greatness
Is Top Gear over now that Jeremy Clarkson has been let go once and for all by the BBC? Perhaps. Perhaps not. In any case, I'd like to give the Clarkson era a mighty sendoff, and I couldn't think of any better way to do it than with Jeremy's own words:
This is a car program. There will be no cushions. There will be no rag rolling. No one will sing, and at the end of the series, no one will have a recording contract. This is our new base, and this is our purpose-built test track. There are no traffic jams here - well, apart from this one - and no bus lanes either. This is Top Gear.
Well, Top Gear may have been more than a car program by its end, but there's no doubt about it - no matter what, it was always top. And on that bombshell - goodbye, Jeremy.

The BBC Fires Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear
As a long-time Top Gear fan and all-around gearhead, I am going to miss Jeremy Clarkson. While I understand the reasons behind his termination, Top Gear just won't be the same without him. You won't be forgotten, you silly old pickle. ♥︎ 🚘 ♥︎
