Jeremy Clarkson seems to have a lot of fans, apparently about a million of them, and they've decided to spend their time getting a tank and driving it up to the BBC to protest the fact that he was taken off air. 

The well-publicised "fracas" involving him and a producer has lead to the BBC's decision to give him the sack, but it looks as though a million people have signed a petition to get him back on the air and get the rest of this season of their beloved Top Gear shown to. 

The culmination of this movement came earlier today when The Stig (or someone dressed like him), the mysterious character who drives around really fast on their TV show, appeared outside the BBC in a tank, carrying with him a box that had the million signatures in it. Presumably inside the box was a laptop where they would just load up the website that they have the e-petition on, or they could have just a bit of paper with the address of the e-petition written down and ask someone inside to load it up on their computer. They probably have computers at the BBC. 

Anyway, we're sure whoever it is inside that totally official-looking Stig costume is just a big Clarkson fan and wants to see everything go back to the way it was, and has no vested interest in the whole thing.
