1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda gem Nation. But you mentioned Jeremy Clarkson earlier.

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: He and his two mates from the original Top Gear left.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: I think they're doing this series on Amazon because Jeremy

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: Clarkson can't help himself being a dickhead and I don't

5
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: like him, but.

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: He makes a living attitude.

7
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: Well that's what's interesting. And you know what's annoying to

8
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: me is I've watched the series Clarkson's Farm and I

9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: love it. This is a series that he has made.

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: He's had a farm in the Cotswolds for many, many

11
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: years and the old farm manager was retiring and he thought, well,

12
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: why don'd I take over the running of this farm?

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 1: And they filmed. There's two seasons of it now, and

14
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: against my best intentions, I've watched it and I've loved

15
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: it because he's the newcomer and the locals don't give

16
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: a rat that he's a famous man. In fact, his

17
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: terrible reputation means that when he tries to do anything,

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: all the locals go, no, you know, you can't do

19
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: that because you're a nasty man. But just at his

20
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: respect for the farming community and what happens when you're

21
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: trying to have sheep and cows. It's as he said,

22
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: if you see a farmer, put your arm around him

23
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: or her because they're doing it so tough, and particularly

24
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: the second series through Brexit, you really wonder what the

25
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: future of farming is going to be. But the new

26
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: series of well, it's not the new series. It's been

27
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: going for some time now of.

28
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 2: Top Gear, so I think it was even going.

29
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've replaced them with a couple of other presenters

30
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: over the years, and now one of them is Freddy

31
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: Flintoff Andrew Freddie Flintoff, famous cricketer. So they've halted the

32
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: latest series because he was injured in a driving incident.

33
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: He's had a number of incidents. This most recent one

34
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: he suffered facial injuries and he broke rips when his

35
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: car flipped at an aerodrome in Surry, and he's reportedly

36
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: now quit the series, sparking fears that could be canceled

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: for good, and the BBC is said under the circumstances,

38
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: we feel it be inappropriate to resume making series thirty four.

39
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: He's had a number of other incidents. Where are we

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: he He had an accident when he crashed into a

41
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: Market stall in twenty nineteen. In September of that same year,

42
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: he crashed during a drag race he was filming at

43
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: Elvington Airfield in Yorkshire. He's done bob sledding for the

44
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: show and flipped the bob sled and came away.

45
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: Maybe he's not very good sick.

46
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: This is what's interesting. Maybe he's not very good because

47
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: one of the earliest STIGs has come out and said

48
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: that celeb hosts like this should not do stunts. We

49
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: all know what happened with Richard Hammond, who now is

50
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: in the other top Gear. He suffered a brain injury

51
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: following a catastrophic car crash in two thousand and six.

52
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 2: And James May he had a big crash too.

53
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, Richard still has life changing side effects. He

54
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: says his long term memory is shot. He says he

55
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: suffered from depression and he's too scared to have a

56
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: excuse me a dementia test because he says he doesn't

57
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: want to know what the story is.

58
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: Cheapers the Top Gear Australia. Remember I went on that

59
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: and won the race?

60
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: You were pretty good? What have been?

61
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: I was pretty good? I was winning.

62
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: Well this is the problem though, But.

63
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: Then Steve Bisley, but to be beaten by Jim Goose

64
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: is pretty good. Or did I beat Steve Bisley? I

65
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 2: can't remember.

66
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: But what they want from their hosts is danger, of course,

67
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: and that's what Stig is saying. He said that the

68
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: BBC has to stop celebrities taking part in high speed

69
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: stunts because the cars are getting more dangerous. These guys

70
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: aren't trained as drivers and they're asked to do more

71
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 1: and more dangerous things.

72
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's what you want to see. You paid

73
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: to see a diving act. I want to see me

74
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: a diving act. I want to see Jeremy Clarkson going

75
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: to a walk.

76
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: Well do you remember with the Australian Grand Prix that

77
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: was canceled because the cars were all getting smashed They

78
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: had a celebrity race before it, and that's the bit

79
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: that got canceled. Cars were all being smashed up and

80
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: as were the drivers. People had terrible accidents.

81
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: You know what In twenty thirteen when my star was

82
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: on the rise, when I was on Dance with the Stars,

83
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: my agent ran said, Ole Brendan, they want you for

84
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: the celebrity race and I thought, great, I'd love to

85
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: do that and then they wouldn't do it because I

86
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 2: was with Channel seven and not Channel ten. And then

87
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: they canceled it.

88
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: Well, that's right. I thought they canceled it years before.

89
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 2: No, they got I think the last one was twenty fourteen.

90
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: I was all ready to go and then they said, no,

91
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: it's all gone.

92
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Now it's all gone.

93
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: Run around the track from underpants.

94
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: It's better than you dancing
