Jeremy Clarkson has ‘no regrets’ about the feathers he had ruffled in India
Jeremy Clarkson might have had a rough last ride with the popular BBC show, Top Gear, but the 57year-old insists that he is still the same, and wants to continue “annoying” people.
“I still haven’t changed. I am still the same,” says Clarkson, who was fired from the show in 2015 following a “fracas” with a producer. “Everyone gets offended. Even I get offended sometimes. But that doesn’t change me. I mean as long as I am not crossing a certain boundary with people, I will continue to be the same.”
Clarkson is hosting the second season of The Grand Tour on Amazon Prime Video. The English presenterjournalist had ruffled feathers here in India, in 2012 with Top Gear — the Indian High Commission filed a complaint against him for mocking this country’s culture. However, Clarkson has no regrets, and doesn’t rule out another visit to India with his current show. He says, “Listen, I have no regrets about whatever happened. As I said, I am not going to change, and as long as there’s that beep sound to every wrong word we use, I think we will be fine. But having said that, we would definitely love to visit India. People over there are really curious about these sorts of things, and the last experience was wonderful. We would love to be back again.”
