Clarkson regularly refers to his family on Top Gear or in his newspaper columns, often with humor; for example, noting how resistant to damage the trim in demonstrator cars is once his children are let loose in the back, which can be a help to readers with children looking to buy a new car.
Clarkson is interested not only in cars but engineering in general, especially pioneering work, as his programmes on Brunel and the Colossus computer have shown.
Clarkson is a very heavy smoker of cigarettes, which, he says, need to be ’’heterosexual cigarettes, like red meat on a stick.’’ But I am sure this will not affect his love and passion for cars, as he is just crazy about cars.

 Kathryn Jean Lopez on Hurricane Katrina and Jeremy Clarkson on National Review Online

Apparently, Clarkson has questioned the conventional wisdom on global warming, which is endearing, but it's not going to get him off the hook.
But Clarkson’s fiction slanders a nation, and a military that is once again answering the call of those in need.
