The indians politely ate it wondering "God! Is this what they eat in Britain????".. The British need to get offended not the Indians.. Just ignore JC guys.. Have a sense of humour. I loved the show and kept laughing a lot!!
 Why are Indians making a big issue out of it? After it got torn, the message on the train read: " the UK promotes shIT for your company ".. In this msg, he infact made fun of UK.. Also, in the party they served digestive cookies with salad cream
Rail track fascinates Indians. In any part of India you could see in the early morning hours hundreds of them squatting besides the train track to relieve themselves. As the train approaches some of them stand up holding their dhoti to save their dignity while others carry on their business ignoring the onlookers in the train. In India, many women also pee in standing position out in the open.
What's the big deal? If you are offended by this show (I doubt anyone actually watched it), fix the sanitation in India. It is pathetic. It is horrible and it is a disgrace to any country to see almost everyone using the entire country as a bathroom. The stink starts as soon as the plane is landing in India from abroad. It is really deplorable. If someone making fun of it, you should appreciate him for his sense of humor, if not, fix the sh*t.

Even if it is true, it does not entitle him to be judgemental.If a comment is passed tarnishing an entire society of people it is unfair.Secondly there is an underlining air of superiority that makes it offensive. The British must remember that as colonisers we were taught in the history books they stole from their colonies and enabled their wealth. They havent learnt look at the rotten financial markets where all the gansters in ties congregate in London.The looting continues.What does Jeremy have to say about it.By the way does Jeremy know that Jaguar is owned by an Indian company?

By the way I dont live in India and I am not Indian.The point is no one who runs a car programme is entitled to make racial comments and judge another culture.It is not true that all Indians are dirty or live in slums or live hand to mouth.Clarkson is steryotyping an entire society and that is wrong.It is for the Indian peeople to manage their own behaviour and image.
