Man, oh man! Jeremy Clarkson, that guy from Top Gear and "Clarkson's Farm," announced he has cancer. And no joke - an aggressive form, he says. Now, sit down, 'cause I'm gonna tell you how I found out.
I saw the latest episodes of season 5, on Prime Video, and there, the man tells his colleagues, Charlie and Kaleb: "I have cancer." Kaleb, who's like a Fane from the terrace, but English, was struck by lightning: "No, you don't. Where?" Clarkson, with his typical nerve: "Where it is is nobody's business. I've known since May." And he also says he disappeared for a week because he went for a biopsy. The doctor told him it's aggressive, but they caught it early. Lucky break, 'cause otherwise...
Now, the man says he needs a short operation, but one that'll knock him out for a while. In the show, he appears in a hospital bed and complains that season 5 started with him in bed and ends the same way. He says part of the treatment went wrong and that if the next round of treatment works, we'll see each other in season 6. If not, we won't see each other. Just like that, cold-blooded, like a true gangster.
Before the finale, he also posted a video on Instagram, warning that the episodes are heavy. I watched it and said: "Bro, the man is tough." 20 years of Top Gear, with Richard Hammond and James May, 240 episodes on BBC, and now with his farm on Amazon. It's like seeing a neighbor fighting for his life, but with style. I always liked him, because he never gives up. And look, he's not giving up now either.
Now, I say this: lucky they caught it early. Like his doctor said, early stage. Let's see what the operation and treatment do. If everything goes well, we'll see each other in season 6. If not... well, let's not think about that. Better go get Mioara a coffee, 'cause she watched the news and said she feels sorry for the Englishman. See, women have big hearts, even if they don't know who Clarkson is after all.
