Jeremy Clarkson 'was on his final warning'
5 hours ago
Jeremy Clarkson, the host of Top Gear, has been suspended from his job by the BBC following what has been described as a fracas with a producer.
Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday.
TV critic Toby Earl spoke to BBC News about the broadcaster's recent controversies.
Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson has been suspended by the BBC "following a fracas" with a producer.
The corporation said the 54-year-old presenter had been suspended "pending an investigation".
"No one else has been suspended. Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday," it said.
Clarkson was given what he called his "final warning" last May after claims he used a racist word while filming the popular BBC motoring show.
At the time, he said the BBC had told him he would be sacked if he made "one more offensive remark, anywhere, at any time".
The BBC gave no further details on the current incident involving Clarkson, and said it would not be making any further statements at this time.
Clarkson's representatives have yet to reply to requests for a comment.
