Yeah, I think so too. I would not be elevating Clarkson to hero status just yet.

No it’s true. I spent a lot of time in the UK in the last dozen years or so. They cannot stand him there. He is referred to as a “useless twit”, which is generous in my view.

Piers Morgan feud

From 2000 to 2006, Clarkson had a public feud with Piers Morgan, which began when Morgan published pictures of Clarkson kissing his BBC producer, Elaine Bedell.

On the final Concorde flight, Clarkson threw a glass of water over Morgan during an argument. In March 2004 at the British Press Awards, he swore at Morgan and punched him before being restrained by security; Morgan says it has left him with a scar above his left eyebrow. In 2006 Morgan revealed that the feud was over, saying "There should always be a moment when you finally down cudgels, kiss and make up." Clarkson also mentioned that despite not getting on with Morgan, he can at least be in the same room as him.
