Jeremy Clarkson's "The World According To Clarkson" is one of Penguin's "best books of its kind to be published in recent years"

Sorry, didn't intend to exclude our Irishes from answering. Oops.

Formerly egotistical motormouth DJ/TV personality who seems to have mellowed a bit in recent years. Recently reprised his once-popular TV show TFI Friday for a one-off special which turned into a Top Gear audition half-way through (driving round Top Gear test track, taking presentation lessons from Clarkson, interviewing Lewis Hamilton, talking guff about cars). Probably the obvious choice. He's laddish and is childishly enthusiastic about fast cars (which he owns a lot of, I believe). He used to give good* telly of the Top Gear type -laddish, jokey, idiotic banter - in the 90s.

* ymmv on whether this is actually good, but it was certainly popular

He was married to Billie Piper

Only thing I've seen him on recently is presenting the One Show, following a video segment all about a marmalade festival, catch on to the name of the town it was held in and started going on about how they have a marmalade festival there.

i will say this - he was great on GLR before getting The Big Breakfast. not had much time for him since, but his early radio stuff was fun.

Clarkson, Hammond, and May have signed to Amazon Prime for new show, along with executive producer Andy Wilman.

Can I speak to someone in charge of untimely deaths?

True fact: at the age of 10, I was in a school performance of The Wind In The Willows with Clarkson. I played Mole to his Toad. We did it semi-improvised. I wore a black polo-necked sweater. He was quite the am-drammer in those days. It's been downhill for us both ever since.

‘dear no more page 3’

timely!

tbf, the book came out over three years ago. The fact that this is the first time anyone has noticed it exists points to how successful it was.
