UK and Argentina reach agreement to âgive backâ Top Gear presenters
The UK has agreed to give the presenters of Top Gear back to Argentina, in a bid to restore goodwill between the two countries. The Top Gear teamÂ fled the country after being pelted by stones forÂ driving a car with a number plate that referred to the 1982 Falklands conflict, but are soon to be returned after the two countries reached agreement. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and the other one are currently in a military plane en route to Buenos Aires after the two countries put pen to paper onÂ the terms of theirÂ extradition. A spokesperson for the Home Office explained, âComplex extradition orders and international diplomatic issues such as this can often take months if not years to resolve, but this whole deal was concluded very quickly indeed.â âArgentina said âweâd like to string them up by their testicles in a public settingâ and we said âOK, do you need any more string?â.â âIt is a win-win arrangement to be fair. They get to string some people up and pacify their voters, and we get rid of the Top Gear presenters â whatâs not to like about the deal?â The BBC show has so far refused to comment officially on the whereabouts of its presenters, though one show insider explained they were heading back to Argentina. They told us, âThey landed and were busy telling everyone how funny they are when some people from the government came in and put a sack over Jeremy Clarksonâs head.â âApparently itâs not necessary, they just donât particularly like Jeremyâs face.â âThe officials apologised to us, but said a fall in BBC ratings would be well worth itÂ if this stops ArgentinaÂ going on about the Falklands for a couple ofÂ years.â âOh, and weâve got the exclusive rights to any public flogging they might receive â which is nice.â
