BIOGRAPHY

The irascible broadcaster continues to voice his forthright opinions on television's favourite car show, Top Gear.

Originally trained as a journalist, Jeremy coupled his writing skills with an interest in cars and formed the Motoring Press Agency. He still contributes regularly to The Sunday Times and The Sun.

Jeremy has hosted Star Cars, Motorworld, and Extreme Machines, which took him out of automobiles and into some seriously big toys. He hosted his own chat show, guest presented Have I Got News For You and explored his roots in Who Do You Think You Are? He also co-presented the first series of Robot Wars.

Jeremy has also presented Inventions That Changed The World, and championed Brunel in the quest to identify the 'Greatest Britons'. His film about theVictoria Cross, For Valour, was a powerful essay on the medal for gallantry and the remarkable stories of those to whom it has been awarded.

Books include Clarkson on Cars, Born To Be Riled, Planet Dagenham and the number one bestseller, The World According to Clarkson.
