Jeremy Clarkson Rules Himself Out Of ‘Top Gear’ Return, But Says Show “Needed More Than Ever”
The BBC's top-rating car show was suspended in December 2022, following Freddie Flintoff's serious accident.

The show was immediately put on hiatus, and Flintoff said in the documentary that he has kept very little contact with his former co-presenters, for his fear of being “triggered” by memories of his accident. Top Gear debuted back in 1977, and enjoyed its most successful era from 2002 with Clarkson at the helm, alongside James May and Richard Hammond.
