As a cricket fan, I was happy to hear that Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff had recovered from a crash when filming Top Gear.
However, it seems the BBC are now paying him 9 million or so in compo if this article is correct.
The BBC are quick to tell you it won’t be funded by the licence fee, but from ‘BBC Studios, a commercial arm of the broadcaster.’
What crap! Anything the BBC sells on is from money generated by the licence fee. Sold a few Dad’s Army videos? Sold ‘The Crown’ to the Yanks?
Yeah, where did the money for those series come from, you cheeky fucks!?
And anyway, if you choose to fly around a race track for a job, despite not being a professional racing/stunt driver, how the fuck can it be right to claim millions in compo from old ladies on state pension because you crashed? Do the BBC not get waivers signed?
What next, boxers getting compo for getting knocked out?
In saying that, hope Flintoff is ok, those facial injuries look nasty.
Nominated by: Cuntybollocks
To me, it was a hazard of the job. No compo. He could have said no, or not driven like a cunt.
20
I don’t get it either.
But this the BBcuntingC we’re talking about.They’re rolling in our money, the bastards.
Morning all.
14
I heard he was only doing about 10mph or summat.
What a puff!
10
Perhaps he was wearing one of the old fashioned cotton helmets of 100 years ago.
3
Being in the industry (kind of), I’ve been told from a reliable source that he was driving a bathtub 3-wheeler and flipped it over (albeit at a low speed) whilst not wearing a helmet.
The helmet.
Fuck him and his undeserved compo; even if he was told to do it like that, common sense ought to have overruled so he could tell the production team (who are Tesla and bicycling enthusiasts) to piss off.
19
i heard that as well. apparently landed heavily on the side of his face and then proceeded to scrape most of one side of it off on the tarmac as it came to a lengthy stop, as skin and bone doesnt make for a good brake.
10
I can’t fathom this one. On occasions I crashed the company car at work all I received was a bollocking off the boss. And nine million quid? There have been times when the family breadwinner was killed on the road by some idiot, left a widow and young kids and didn’t get anything approaching £9,000,000,000 off the insurance.
9
Talking of idiots, £9,000,000.

flintoff, a far better cricketer than presenter and font of knowledge of cars.
when clarkson, hammond and may left, that was then end of top gear…to be fair even the last few series with even them on board was getting pretty juvenile and irrelevant. but……they know cars,, two of the three spent most of their careers as motoring journalists. its what they know. if they say a car is crap, then as far as i was concerned it is crap. i dont go to my doctor or solicitor ask for advice and then question it. putting flintoff and that utter utter professional cunt mcguiness as presenters with no knowledge of what you would expect them to be experts on was fucking stupid ( i will absolve that half chat harris as he is a car guy) they just started trying to appeal to the knuckle dragging mouth breathing tik tok you tube generation. i am sorry flintoff has fucked himself up, but if top gear doesnt come back because of it, then he’s done us all a favour.
27
Agree 100% Chuff. Further evidence, as if it were needed, of the BBCs relentless move down market.
11
The BBC carried on with Top Gear after the sacking of Clarkson and the resignation of the other two to prove that the trio were not the magic ingredient of the show. The BBC got it wrong- big time.
The cunts also got it wrong in shedding Ken Bruce; the slot vacated by Ken has lost 1.3 million listeners.
These events just go to show that an organisation which puts muppets in senior management positions is not going to succeed. Sadly, the cunts at the BBC will always have the licence tax to cushion their incompetence.
20
Not my licence fee. I cancelled mine as the final straw when the cunts wouldn’t call Hamas, TERRORISTS.
As for Top Gear, turned to unfunny shite when Clarkson and Co got cancelled.
18
Same here, Mr Anvakh. The cash is far better off in my pocket than in that far left den of iniquity where the likes of Savile, Harris, Hall and Lee-Travis could act out their peccadilloes in plain sight.
Refusing to label Hamas as terrorists was their step too far. Now we have a general election in sight, I suppose the LabTories will be flapping their gums about “getting tough” with the BBC and reviewing their licence. Yeh, right, Billy Bullshit.
13
Clarkson wasn’t sacked. His contract wasn’t renewed. The other two did decide not to continue doing TG without Clarkson, so kudos to them. The shower of shit that followed their exit proving beyond doubt TG was Clarkson, Hammond and May.
Seems that al-BBC will be cancelling TG due to the viewing figures falling off a cliff. Quelle surprise.
When is that license fee going to be abolished?

Guardian reports:
Rich white man given huge payout by BBC.

Morning SV…it’s disgusting, isn’t it, when you consider the insulting pittances given to our soldiers for having their limbs blown off.
19
It’s how we value people. I was thinking last night (yes it hurts), when you look through the media all the heroes, legends and icons are soap stars, minorities and the like.
What the fuck has it come to?
14
Just a shame he didn’t plow into paddy mccaffreys..
Anyway it was time top gear was cancelled, far to white and male for the bbc.. the sexist racists..
3
You also missed out “phobic” Islam/Trans/LGBTQWERTYPLUSVAT
4
You’d think they would have insurance for that kind of thing. Maybe it wouldn’t pay out for dangerous driving with no helmet. Maybe the bbc are like certain other government funded departments who don’t have insurance as Mr and Mrs taxpayer will bail them out.
8
Totally agree with this.
Pleased that Fredders is recovering but did anyone put a shotgun to his head and make him do this. Methinks not…
He is part of this I’m a geezer, cheeky chappy, daredevil, naughty boy who ladies want to fuck, I can drink anyone under the table culture – bit like those American cunts, Jackass.
No sympathy really.
16
It appears the “broadcasting black cunt” lovers, haven’t learnt from their mistakes in 1986 when on a live show, Michael Lush died performing a bungee jump stunt.
8
To be fair to the Beeb, that was Nöel Edmonds’ fault directly because he got Mr Blobby to hook up the bundee cord.
5
Yes, I just couldn’t be arsed to mention the stubby-legged quiffy-headed cunt, even though I watched it live. Remember the beeb doing a swift runner on that one. Laughed my bollocks off. The papers gave them a bollocking for it the following day.
2
I remember watching this in disbelief then discussing the cunt in the pub. Good old daze.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TeQs2fpU1eI
1
Sadly, Michael Lush became Michael Slush within a few seconds.
3
Richard Hammond, in my opinion the most annoying of the original 3, crashed a rocket car at around 240 mph or so and that electric hypercar which was shifting when he stacked it and was lucky to survive both. Freddie fuckwit rolled that Morgan at 22 mph!!
And got right fucked up. Soft cunt
16
I don’t recall Hammond getting paid massive compo either. Maybe it happened, maybe it didn’t. If it did, I don’t think it was front page news at the time.
Still, being a cricketist, crashing is probably the most interesting thing that’s ever happened to him at work. ‘Cos…you know….cricket is so mind numbingly boring.
3
Haven’t watched top gear since the departure of Clarkson, Hammond and May.
Paddy power and Flintoff are way too much ‘giving it large’ for me, no idea about the third cunt.
10
Yep, unwatchable cobbled-together shite. No real empathy between the members… Actually members is a good description, PRICKS (and cunts at the same time)
4
I haven’t either. Enjoying the grand tour though.
5
Same here, Sick. I tried an episode after the fab 3 departed. Oh dear. Very tough act to follow and basically they couldn’t.
3
I like Freddie Flintstone
And find him entertaining.
His mobile chippy,
His go at boxing.
Great cricketer;
And practical joker.
He loves a dare, a stunt,
As he’s shown on a League of their Own.
But you can’t spit the dummy when things go tits up
Nobody wants to see a presenter get injured,
He took the risk
And got fucked up.
No point scriking about it.
6
I agree with everything you say about his cricketing career, but just hasn’t got the voice for the media. It grates on me.
4
Skrike, not heard that for years!
2
” I’ll give you summat to scrike about in a minute”
– every mam in the North
Circa 60s/70s😁
7
Turns out he had 9 million points for scriking about it
4
I too have given up on top gear, as i have with most if not all of the bilge on all channels everywhere. A programme about cars needs presenters who can string two corners and a straight line together. Chris harris i quite like along with, jenson button, mark webber, suzy perry, suzy wolffe,and probably many others. This lot has the knowledge and know how to drive fast things fast. Yet another cunt decision made by the cunts at dear old aunty, who needs putting in a home and euthanising.
7
I like how they just dish out 9m of licence payers cash (yes, that is where it really comes from BBC, you cheeky cunts. We’re not all fucking retarded.)
Shouldn’t be allowed to dish out millions just like that.
He had no helmet on, right? Whose fault was that? Aren’t waivers signed too?
If not why not. And if not, then all BBC shows involving any risk (all of them then) should be canceled.
Imagine if Linekhunt stubbed his toe on the MOTD desk? They’d give the cunt 50 mill and an evening of sexy refugees to bum.
12
Wish that Paddy McGuinness was more devil may care, laugh in the face of danger…
I’d take great delight in seeing that cunt have to be cut from a burning wreckage.
6
Glad that cunt Flintioff got hurt. Bought one of his shitty bats for my son and it didn’t last.
4
Have you just admitted to child beating?
It didn’t last? The bat or your son.
We should be told! 🙂
2
I think Freddie has got in with a bad crowd.
He had a good sense of humour, could laugh at himself,
Playing jokes on others.
But then he came on telly crying about having Bulimia?
That’s from hanging around BBC cunts that!
I’ve never ever met another bloke who said he had bulimia.
Never.
I’d rather die .
If one of my mates said he was Bulimic,
We’d pin the fat cunt down and force feed him Easter eggs till he spewed up.
Shameful.
Next he’ll be swanning around in lipstick and a bra.
BBC are degenerates to a man.
A bad influence on a honest northern lad.
16
I turn partly-bulimic around barbecues, curry houses, chippies, pubs that serve huge steaks.
I just forget to throw up.

I tell blokes at work i’m on a special diet.
‘Oh right, what’s that?’
The Elvis diet.

As we know the BBCistan is rammed full of bedwetting soy paki loving cunts who know it doesn’t matter what they do or how deeply offensively they fuck up something like this go-kart crash as they can fall back on billions of pounds of a disgraceful “licence fee” which they chuck about with unaccountable abandon.
Flintoff a great swashbuckling cricketer but he should have known better..the clueless cunts who employ him would happily watch pensioners starve to death so long as they get their “fee”,so his safety means nothing to the cunts.
V8 oven at once.
7
My mummy and daddy wouldn’t let me play with actor children.
If Mark Lester or Arnold from Different strokes had knocked on for me,
” your not hanging around with that little puff!!
You’ll end up fruity!
The gyppos are on the playing field
Go play with their kids”
Although, that wouldn’t be the only reason with Arnold
” a n**ger midget?!!!
Your in for a battering when your dad gets home from work!! “

Tell you what I’ve never seen, MNC.
A tikky taki riding a bike.
Never seen it and I once lived in a area full of the cunts. Never see them with pets either.
9
They don’t like dogs, that’s for sure.
8
They can only ride with stabilisers CB.
They struggle to stay in control of a bike due to being so greasy.
Blacks ride bikes ok,
Yet never seen a UK chinky on one?
Back home they all ride shitty bikes,
Yet here?. Won’t touch a bike.
They should do really because none of the sliteyed little yellow bastard’s can drive a car properly.
7
They definitely don’t like dogs. A Syrian refugee/nutcase decided to throw the bulldog of the hotel’s owner out of a fifth floor window.
The dog survived the fall itself but died of its injuries a while later.

Did Lee Chapman get any compo when he went swimming on the asphalt track at Spurs? His face looked like Skeletor’s when he got up. And when his Mrs got £5 million off the NHS after she looked like she’d been sucking off a Formula One Car exhaust pipe. Unbelievable.
3
Thanks Bob for reminding me of the gravel-faced cunt. Couldn’t stand the sheep shagging side of that era. Now glad they’re having spells in the second division

BBC story today to warm hearts.
So what if they adopted a boy. Purely a coincidence. So what if he’s being taken on what looks like some Pride march, on the shoulders, being shown off like some degenerate’s prop (Fella has rainbow paint on).
What are you, Nazis or something? Jeez. Get with the times, you dinosaurs (End Times it seems).

“He’s a great wee kid”.
I’m sure he meant “it’s great to wee on the kid”.

Lovely story. In no way will that kid be fucked up later in life (probably fucked up the arse though).

“Paul and his husband Martin”
Eeurgh!

Have a gay couple ever adopted a girl?

Big dopy twat…! Lucky he wasn’t working in the real world and not Baldings Broadcasting corporation. £9,000,000.00. WTF….😡
How Much Can I Claim For A Fatal Accident At Work?
You are probably interested in how much compensation for the death of a loved one you are entitled to receive. However, any given amount would be an estimation. Due to the inherently unique nature of every wrongful death at work case, any compensation that is awarded will take into account the unique circumstances. Therefore, it is challenging to provide generalised compensation amounts.
However, if you would like a general estimate before making any further enquiry into your claim, the below table contains a basic list of the average compensation amounts, organised by type and severity of the accident. * Starred amounts displayed in the table below are not for the death itself but are elements of a fatality that may be factored into the overall compensation amount if the deceased has suffered in any of these ways:
Search:
Injury/Severity Amount Notes
Fatality add-on £550,000 or over Award could include loss of earnings and other financial dependency in addition to the pain and suffering the deceased experienced.
Death with full awareness (a) £12,540 to £23,810 Severe injuries where death follows between a couple of weeks and a few months.
Injury followed by unconsciousness and death (b) £10,510 to £10,670 The victim will have lost consciousness within 3 hours. Death happens in 2 weeks.
Injury followed by immediate Unconsciousness (c) £3,760 to £4,390 Death will then happen after 6 weeks.
Injury followed by immediate unconsciousness (d) £1,370 to £2,790 Death will then happen within one week.
Moderately Severe Brain Damage £219,070 to £282,010 Where death could happen very soon after the initial injuries happened.
Lung disease (a) £100,670 to £135,920 Where the victim is a young person with a serious disability. The injury becomes worse and leads to an early death.
Severe PTSD £59,860 to £100,670 Where the person suffers serious and permanent effects preventing the person carry out normal activities.
Mental anguish £4,670 Where there is the fear of impending death.
Showing 1 to 9 of 9 entries
As you can see from this table, there is variety in how each death compensation can be awarded. As such, you will need the support of a Claims Service to ensure you are receiving the compensation you deserve rather than being undervalued by the legal system. In order to receive a more accurate amount, why not speak to our team for a free consultation?

Wonder if anyone burst out laughing when Freddie crashed?
I’ve always saw the funny side of accidents to other people.
Be it falling off ladders,
Hair catching fire
Tripping over and falling down a flight of stairs etc
Slapstick is universally funny.
I remember as kids a German shepherd ran out of a scrapyard and went for me and my mate.
I jumped over a barbed wire fence,
But the dog got him,
Ripping his jeans apart!
He got tangled up in the barbed wire making him a sitting duck for the dog.
Screamed his head off!
I couldn’t breathe for laughter,
Happy days

Funnier when they’re fatties.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game. All credit to Flintoff for fleecing them if the opportunity is there.
2
How much can I claim for being traumatised by all the pæedohs on the BBC year after year? Throughout the 80s it was non-stop Savile, Rolf Harris, Stuart Hall, Glitter, Michael Jackson et al. Traumatised, I am. My world is full of nightmares. Only the thought of Sarah Greene being gang-banged on a pool table in Hull University ameliorated my mind.
£10 million should suffice.
8
At least with Saville you knew what you were getting into.
2
Don’t get this at all. Did some cunt from the beeb hold a gun against his head, force him into whatever cuntish thing they had come up with. Flintoff ain’t thick he must have known that top gear stunts had a safety record worse than Aeroflot and Air Somalia combined. £9 bloody million of our fucking money. Bastard

Top Gear died when Clarkson, Hammond and May went. I have no idea what that shit is now as ive never really watched it.
A minor correction of this nomination. The Crown is a Netflix production. I’m sure the BBC wishes it had developed it but being completely out of touch with audiences they only have Attenbore left in their ‘prestige’ cupboard, which gets more bare every year.
Dr Who is dead, Top Gear is dead, Their current affais programmes are a laughing stock, Radio 2 is now a Hen Party. Eastenders is losing viewers by the month, now down to about a million. Naturalists snd scientists are now poking holes in their nature programmes. The yoof aren’t watching the latest BBC three comedy: the only people I know who watch the BBC regularly are over 50, and the average age of the viewer is early sixties.
