Jeremy gets pie in the face at ceremony!!!

LMAO poor clarkie :P

Quote:

Broadcaster Jeremy Clarkson has been hit in the face with a custard pie at a degree ceremony.The outspoken Top Gear presenter was at Oxford Brookes University to collect an honorary degree in recognition of his "passion for engineering".But the decision has proved to be controversial, and protesters, including members of Oxford's Green Party, assembled outside the presentation dressed in Clarkson's trademark tight jeans and wigs.

Security was tight and police outnumbered the the protesters,
who waved banners reading On Yer Bike Clarkson at the gates.

But one woman managed to gain access to a media call after the degree ceremony.

She dashed out in front of the television cameras and, as Mr Clarkson posed in his cap and gown, removed what appeared to be a custard pie from a wrapped-up newspaper and hit him full in the face.

The startled presenter maintained his cool, quipped "good shot" and posed for a few more pictures before beating his retreat.

Mr Clarkson has been criticised for engaging in stunts such as driving a 4x4 through an environmentally-sensitive peat bog in Scotland and inciting people to break the law by hiding mobile phone use while driving.

Speaking before the assault, he defended his record on environmental issues, saying: "I do have a disregard for the environment. I think the world can look after itself and we should enjoy it as best we can."

Nearly 3,000 people signed an online petition against Clarkson receiving the honorary degree

WE NEED PICS!! :P

well I'm glad to hear he has a sense of humour and didn't go all 'Tom Cruise' on her :mrgreen:

hahahhahah, exactly, but he's not an asshole i would hope, some people take themselves way to seriously!

Well done for finding the pic Dan!! :clap: good sport jeremy, lifes not exactly the greatest right now for him, but he seems to have retained his great sense of humour :D now we just need the vid :P, bound to be on some local news, and sky digi has all regions :hmm:

Poor JC ;) - one can't really help but like the big gorilla wif the Keegan hairdo... although his mouth does get him in trouble more often than not... :)

But these damn Green freaks are out of control. :| :roll: :x :fist:

The peat bog needs to be dug up, dried, and burned as heating fuel.. :P

So all you need to earn an honorary degree is to "have passion for" the subject on hand? ;)

Classic stuff from Clarkson, I'd expect no less. :lol:

For a bunch of tree-hugging hippies, though, the green party folks sure seem tempermental. Oh well, though, it produced a great picture.

Oh no, the green party *wasted* a pie on Jeremy's face, how un-environmental friendly that is! Talk about all the energy used in creating that pie! Not to mention the newspaper used to wrap the pie, that's another tree wasted..

The tree-huggers need to grow up.

i agree. his response was cool though :D

His comments are imo just plain jokes, english humor I suppose :mrgreen:

By the looks of the hat, they gave him an honorary Masters Degree as opposed to a Bachelors...

:)

haha.. oh man that picture is so much better than i imagined it would be...

if someone handed me a pie and told me to hit clarkson with it, i'd do it :)

He's already had mud on his face. I'm sure a pie is nothing
