Speaking to the Radio Times, Jeremy said: “If I ran the BBC, it would be better…I’d make programmes for everybody, not just seven people in Islington.
“It’s become so up itself, suffocating the life out of everything with its nonsense need to be politically correct.
“If they’d let everyone relax, and made a show that’s entertaining or interesting or informative or any of the things that the BBC is supposed to be, then we’d be having a different debate about the future of television.
“I had a very happy time at the BBC and I care very much about it.”
Jeremy’s comments come just days after he claimed he and his former ‘Top Gear’ co-hosts – Richard Hammond and James May, who he now works with on Amazon Prime’s ‘The Grand Tour’ – would ever have been installed on the show in this day and age.
