editIt is this chain of events that is said to have led to Clarkson allegedly punching producer Oisin Tymon during what was officially described as a "fracas".
However, witnesses have said that no fists were actually thrown – although they have confirmed that Clarkson was hungry.
"Clarkson didn’t like the idea of sandwiches and demanded a juicy steak. He wanted his own way. The producer was being blamed for not arranging hot food. Clarkson hit him — he used every possible swear word you can imagine. He had to be held back. The producer just stood there looking embarrassed."
The general manager is said to have acceded to Clarkson’s request by cooking the steak the next morning.
