TV MOTORMOUTH Jeremy Clarkson is to take a cut in pay as part of the BBC's new cost-cutting initiative.
The boisterous presenter, who's openly slated motorcycles and the folk that ride them, is in line for a reduction in his seven-figure salary, along with leading stars including irritating halfwit Jonathan Ross and Chris 'fatty' Moyles of Radio One fame.
A BBC spokesman confirmed that pay would be reduced when contracts came up for renewal and that "those on the highest fees will be most affected by market conditions".
Perhaps Mr Clarkson should consider turning to two wheels in this time of economic hardship?
