Jeremy Clarkson was 'extremely p****d off' with broadcaster Giles Coren, who issued a 'profuse apology'.

Jeremy Clarkson was 'extremely p****d off' with writer and broadcaster Giles Coren, leading to a 'profuse apology' being issued. The tension arose after Coren used comments Clarkson had made privately in one of his newspaper columns.

Coren, a long-standing columnist for The Times, attended the launch of Clarkson's book Diddly Squat: The G.O.A.T. at The Savoy in London on 8 October with his wife, Esther Walker. At the event, Clarkson joked about having forgotten to invite many of his friends, telling guests: 'Please don't tell anybody you were here' and describing those present as 'a sort of edited highlights of my address book', before pointedly adding: 'apart from you, Giles.'

The book continues Clarkson's accounts of life at Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire, which also forms the setting for his Prime Video series Clarkson's Farm.
