    Clarkson is suspended by the BBC after a “fracas” with a producer. The BBC says Top Gear will not be broadcast on BBC Two on Sunday.

    The BBC refuses to say when Clarkson’s future on the show will be decided. Sources close to the investigation say it is impossible to put a deadline on the outcome, until it hears from the two men central to the inquiry – Clarkson and producer Tymon.

    Clarkson and Tymon are believed to have now given their evidence into the Top Gear “fracas”. However, a BBC spokesman refuses to comment on any developments, saying: “As we said last week we have an investigation ongoing and we won’t comment further until that is concluded.”

    Clarkson’s Top Gear co-hosts decline an offer to continue the rest of the series without him, according to reports. May and Richard Hammond “didn’t want to do it without Jeremy”, a BBC executive reportedly says.

    Clarkson launches a tirade against BBC executiveswhom he claim are about to sack him.
