| BBC News Wrote: | BBC backs 'provocative' Top Gear
Viewers who are offended by jokes on motoring show Top Gear must accept such remarks will remain "an integral part of the programme", the BBC has said.
The corporation has issued a statement on its complaints website after receiving 500 objections in six months.
"Provocative comments" by hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May must not be taken seriously, it said.

I find people who complain about programmes that are sarcastic or place jibes at others as idiots. If they don't like it, then switch over and watch something else.^o)
What do you all think? |

If you are going to watch a show with Jeremy Clarkson in it, then you have to accept that there will be offensive jokes, it you can't deal with the offence then just don't watch |

Exactly, It just bugs me that people can be so easily irritated. |

Yeah I know, like people who complain about shows that are bad taste or whatever, but well if you think it is bad taste just don't watch it then, don't start complaining and trying to get it pulled from the screens. |
