Clarkson did throw that tantrun punching producer Oisin Tymon after food wasn't provided for him.

After decades of getting shafted by BBC producers for poor pay and scheduling, a man (Clarkson) had a smack at his boss for making him drive in 40° F weather in convertible for two hours, who promised him there would be warm food and catering at the closing destination (the bare minimum that should be provided for such a shoot), who then cancelled the catering service at the last minute because of costs.

I will literally never understand how people can hear about the incident with the producer and side with the BBC.

Wow, during deployments in over 48cI wish I had got warm food instead of an MRE.

Shit, that totally justifies punching everyone in the entire chain of command after I already agreed to go and do the mission. I should have thought of that. Agree to do the work and then just punch people left and right when it sucks!
