Top Gear and JC win NTA's

Nodz86 · November 1, 2007

Jeremy, Richard and James all turned out in their finery last night to attend the National Television Awards at London's Royal Albert Hall.

And it was worth the trip too, as they trounced the competition in their nominated category of Most Popular Factual Programme, as we predicted they would.

Clarkson also came away with the Special Recognition Award, presented to him by none other than F1 hero Lewis Hamilton.

"It gives me great pleasure to present this award to Jeremy Clarkson. Top Gear was always my favourite programme growing up, still is," he said.

"He always has something funny to say, except when he makes jokes about me."

Jeremy was almost speechless, but regained himself to say, "Thank you. It's not like a job, it's a playground. Thank you to my family, and then there's Richard and James..." Adding, "Without whom... this would still have been possible. Thanks."
