Top Gear's the Great Indian Joke
Post Last Edit by Edison at 19-1-2012 16:19
Top Gear bosses have rejected claims that the show’s India special was insulting - and said it was a “warts and all” portrayal of the country. The Christmas edition led to Indian diplomats making a complaint to the BBC about what they regarded as a “disgusting” episode.
But programme chiefs have now responded for the first time to say the show did not display a “hostile or superior attitude”. And they said jokes were at the expense of presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond rather than the Indian people. |
