Top Gear Live is to go ahead with Jeremy Clarkson re-signed to fulfil his responsibilities to the shows.
But controversy emerged yesterday when the rider, a list of backstage demands, was leaked.
In amongst the wine, food, DVDs and game consoles was the need for 10 albino dwarves.
We put the need for this to Jeremy Clarkson.
'It's for 10 pin bowling. They line up and we try to knock them down with really heavy bowling balls. It's hilarious. At least 6 end up in hospital by the end.'
He continued 'They aren't really human so it doesn't matter. But it is fucking hilarious when one of them takes it in the bollocks. Or they end up with a fractured skull.'
'Hammond got sick of me throwing borling balls at him so we got the dwarves. That's what really happened with Hammond's accident. It wasn't a jet car. I smashed his skull in with a bowling ball for a laugh.'
'Ahhhh, happy days.'
