Controversial TV personality Jeremy Clarkson has once again been accused of racism after mocking Indian culture in a ‘Top Gear’ Christmas Special on BBC.

Viewers were furious after Clarkson staged a series of Carry On style digs at India’s trains, toilets, clothing, food and history, The Daily Mail reported.

At one point, the controversial presenter ridiculed the unhygienic conditions and lack of sanitation among the poor by driving around the slums in a Jaguar fitted with a toilet.

A spokesman for the BBC said they have been 23 complaints about content “offensive to India” in the programme, which was broadcast on Wednesday evening.

She added: “If viewers or religious groups want to complain, they can complain to the BBC. We won’t be responding through the media.”

Clarkson was earlier involved in another controversy earlier this month. Clarkson was forced to apologise after saying striking public sector workers should be shot in front of their families during an appearance on The One Show on BBC1.
