BBC Television has suspended one its biggest stars reportedly punching a producer. Reporters say Jeremy Clarkson, 54, the presenter the hugely popular programme Top Gear, got into a fight with the producer, Oisin Tymon. There was an argument the lack food available after filming one the shows. Mr Clarkson supposedly got angry with Mr Tymon this and hit him. The BBC immediately suspended the show's host and announced they would not broadcast the next two programmes. Clarkson is so popular worldwide that an online petition started, calling the BBC to "reinstate" him. So far, more than 400,000 people have signed it.

One Mr Clarkson's co-presenters, James May, did not think the incident was so serious. He told BBC News: "I think [Clarkson has] been involved a bit a dust- and I don't think it's that serious." Mr Clarkson joked reporters yesterday. They asked him where he was going as he got into his car. He said he was going the job centre. Clarkson also retweeted a message a fan his 4.5 million Twitter followers. It read: "How can the BBC not show the remaining episodes Top Gear? Can't this be resolved without making the fans suffer?"
