Jeremy Clarkson breaks THREE plastic forks as he attempts to eat a fry-up

Jeremy Clarkson suffered a cutlery blunder as he attempted to eat a fry-up while taking COVID-19 precautions on Monday.

The presenter, 60, was filmed attempting to cut into a piece of bacon as he enjoyed a fry-up with co-host James May during a break from filming The Grand Tour in Scotland. 

The star said: ‘I broke this fork on my thick piece of bacon, then I broke this one so it’s the last fork available.

Jeremy then cut into his bacon as an encouraging James said ‘steady, you’re gonna do it’.

The fork then broke on cue as Jeremy burst into hysterical laughter in the cafe.. 

A giddy James said: ‘You’re going to have to eat it with your fingers now!’   

The Grand Tour was created by Jeremy, James, Richard Hammond and Andy Wilman, conceived after the three hosts left Top Gear. 

In December, the former Top Gear stars appeared in the first of a series of specials called The Grand Tour Presents: Seamen.  

The feature-length episode saw the captivating trio head off on an adventure across the waters of Vietnam and Cambodia, where they captain three very different types of vessels.

In the special, Jeremy, James and Richard headed out on a 800km journey through Vietnam and Cambodia that begins Tonlé Sap Lake.

During their trip, the trio had to weave their way through a series of challenges and unexpected mishaps as they make their way to the Mekong Delta.

To go on this epic adventure, Jeremy headed out on a Vietnam-era PBR (Patrol Boat River), which most famously appeared in Apocalypse Now.

And Richard channelled his inner Don Johnson by setting off on a Miami Vice style speedboat, while James headed out on a classic 1939 wooden river cruiser.
