Jeremy Clarkson is planning a TV show to rival 'Top Gear' after being axed from his presenting job.
The 55-year-old star was let go from the programme by the BBC last month after he was involved in a fracas with 'Top Gear' producer Oisin Tymon in a hotel while filming in location, splitting his lip and verbally abusing him.
Clarkson is not going to dwell on his departure from the programme and has revealed he's going to create a new "baby" to take on the BBC series.
Writing in his Sunday Times column, Jeremy revealed: "I have lost my baby but I shall create another. I don't know who the other parent will be or what the baby will look like, but I cannot sit around any more organising my photograph album. Let's stop being silly and pick up the pieces and start again ... I just know I'm going to do another car show."
The outspoken star also revealed he had a cancer scare just two days before the incident that lost him his job. He was given a "stern" warning by a doctor to have it checked immediately but was in the middle of filming for the motoring show and said that "always came first".
Jeremy said: "Two days before the 'fracas', I'd been told, sternly, by my doctor that the lump on my tongue was probably cancer and that I must get it checked out immediately. But I couldn't do that. We were in the middle of a 'Top Gear' series. And 'Top Gear' always came first."

EastEnders bosses have been left furious with Lorna Fitzgerald after she was caught taking a legal high after a night out in london.
The 19-year-old actress - who plays Abi Branning on the BBC One soap - is in hot water with producers after she was photographed inhaling nitrous oxide, also known as hippy crack, out of a balloon after buying it from a street dealer for £10 following a boozy night out with friends in the capital.
A source said: "EastEnders really aren't happy and are going to be talking to Lorna about it. They don't take this kind of behaviour lightly."
One witness confirmed Lorna was a little worse for wear when the incident took place in the early hours of Saturday morning (18.04.15).
They told The Sun newspaper: "Lorna was quite obviously a bit drunk.
"After sucking the balloons they started giggling.
"A few people recognised her and shouted, 'Abi'. She said, 'That's not my real name'."
Her actions have also been slammed by Jeremy Sare, from the anti-drugs charity Angelus Foundation, who claims the actress put herself at risk of "personal injury" as she was taking the high surrounded by traffic while intoxicated.
He said: "Nitrous oxide has a very intense intoxicating effect and when taken with alcohol it can be a very risky experience.
"Taking it outside a club, with traffic around, will considerably increase the chances of personal injury.
"It's worrying how fashionable this has become -- we hope it goes out of fashion soon."

Jemima West has revealed an actress was stung by a scorpion on the set of 'Indian Summers'.
The 27-year-old star, who plays Alice Whelan in the Channel 4 drama, has confessed that while there were perks to filming in Malaysia, there were also a lot of risks.
Jemima exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "There were of course all the tropical insects and you have to get used to seeing cockroaches the size of a fist and big mosquitos and unfortunately a few caught Dengue fever and that wasn't fun.
"One of the actresses got stung by a scorpion, and then of course we had the monkeys visiting every day on set so you have to sort of adapt to the new way of life."
However, the 'Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' actress admits it did sometimes feel like she was on holiday, as she'd never visited the region before.
She explained: "At first it seems like a holiday and then you realise you have to work in the heat but it does help to know that you can go swimming in the morning and you can go for wonderful walks and then when you have time off that you can get on a plane and go travelling.
"So that was brilliant, and it was my first time in South East Asia so I got to travel a lot. I went to Japan and Cambodia, Thailand ... And that was great."
'Indian Summers' is available on DVD now, courtesy of RLJ Entertainment.

Richard Hammond is learning to train his dog.
The 'Top Gear' presenter has been forced to take leave from the BBC show following his co-host Jeremy Clarkson's sacking after a 'fracas' with a producer and is taking the time to teach his pet pooch some new tricks, although it isn't getting off to a great start.
Writing in his column for The Sunday Times newspaper, Jeremy said: "[Richard] decided to fill his enforced leave by training his dog.
"And now, after just a couple of weeks, he reports that the dog in question hates him and hides whenever he comes into the room."
Meanwhile, BBC bosses are said to be keen to ensure Richard and the show's co-host James May stay with the broadcasting network.
An insider said previously: "Richard is a TV presenter and this could be his chance to become top dog - he's been on the show a bit longer than James. That is a big opportunity to pass over.
"It would be a great shame to lose all the talent in one go - re-booting it from scratch would be a far harder task than replacing one."
Whilst another source added: "James and Richard are popular, everyone has their fingers crossed. Their roles would alter because of Jeremy's absence but that's not to say it couldn't work. Far from it."

Christine Bleakley loves getting older.
The 'This Morning' presenter has admitted she has no qualms about ageing and thinks her 30s have been better to her than her younger years.
She said: "I had the best time in my 20s. I didn't meet Frank [Lampard; her fiancé] till I was 30, and I've had a fantastic time in my 30s.
"I'd like to think my 40s will be even better. I'm very content where I am. I don't worry about getting old as long as people around me are getting old with me. Then we're all in it together."
The 36-year-old star also believes it is important for older woman to make their mark on television and thinks the industry is becoming less ageist as whole.
She added: "Look at Gloria Hunniford, who I love. I met her many years ago, when I first started, and there she is, sitting on 'Loose Women'.
"It's really important to have women with different ages and different views and different stories to tell. That's happening more and more."
And whilst Christine is enjoying getting older, she isn't looking to become a "glamourpuss" and admits she finds it "pleasurable" when she doesn't have to wash her hair.
She said: "I don't set myself up as a glamourpuss. There's nothing more pleasurable for me than not having to wash my hair and stick it up in a scruffy bun."
Pointing to her skin, she added to The Times newspaper's Weekend supplement: "Awful, awful. I was totally fine till I hit 30. Now I'm allergic to everything on my face."

Jeremy Clarkson had a cancer scare just two days before the 'fracas' that lost him his job at the BBC.
The former 'Top Gear' host has admitted he was given a "stern" warning by a doctor to have it checked immediately but was in the middle of filming for the motoring show and said that "always came first".
Writing in his column for The Sunday Times newspaper, he said: "Two days before the 'fracas', I'd been told, sternly, by my doctor that the lump on my tongue was probably cancer and that I must get it checked out immediately.
"But I couldn't do that. We were in the middle of a 'Top Gear' series. And 'Top Gear' always came first."
Meanwhile, the 55-year-old television personality - who has since been given the all clear - previously admitted he will greatly miss the BBC show.
Writing in his column for The Sun newspaper, he said: "Heartfelt thanks to all those who have written to say how much they will miss me on 'Top Gear'.
"It's not as much, however, as I'll miss being there."
Meanwhile, BBC bosses are reportedly desperate to secure a future for Jeremy's former co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May.

Sam Faiers split from Joey Essex for the "sake of my sanity".
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star claims the 24-year-old television personality has a "real skill" for twisting things and is "unable" to deal with anything real.
She said: "If delusion was an Olympic sport Joey would have a gold medal. He is like Peter Pan, frozen in time and unable to handle anything bad or real.
"He plays on the 'Little Boy Lost' act and has always had a real skill for twisting things round to suit him because he has never really been made to grow up and take responsibility for himself.
"That's why we had to break up, for the sake of my sanity. I hoped it would end in marriage and children, but in the end I didn't know who he was any more."
And the 24-year-old star alleges Joey was "obsessed" with the idea that she had cheated on him even though she insists she never has.
Writing in her memoir 'Secrets and Lies: The Truth Behind the Headlines' as obtained by The Sun on Sunday newspaper, she said: "He could never keep anything private - not only with TOWIE viewers, but with his whole family.
"He played games and messed with my head. He was obsessed with the idea of me cheating even though I never gave him a single moment of worry."

Danny Dyer has been given an extended Easter break.
The 'EastEnders' star has reportedly had his filming schedule altered by the soap's bosses in order to allow for him, his fiancée Jo and their two younger children, seven-year-old Sunnie and Arty, 18 months, to go on a holiday to the Caribbean.
A source told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "Everyone has been delighted with Danny's first year on the show - he has thrown himself into the role of Mick wholeheartedly. But appearing in a soap isn't really that glamorous - it is pretty full-on and can be a real treadmill of early starts, late-night filming and reading scripts.
"It can be a real shock to the system for newcomers and everyone needs some time away occasionally to re-charge their batteries and relax. Danny told producers he wanted to enjoy an Easter break with his family, and his filming schedule was sorted to allow him to do so."
And Danny - who plays Mick Carter in the BBC One show - appeared to be thoroughly excited about sunning himself on holiday.
Earlier this week, he tweeted alongside a video of a baby causing chaos in a bar: "Going on holiday with my lovable little mob. So here's a rough idea of what's to come. (sic)"

Holly Hagan is expecting to put on "at least" half a stone while shooting 'Geordie Shore'.
The 22-year-old reality star has gone from a size 16 to a size 8 through diet and exercise but knows she'll have to relax her strict regime for the show as staying sober doesn't make for good TV.
She said: "I've cut down on alcohol - when I'm not in the 'Geordie Shore' house. I don't drink much at all...
"When we go back in [the house], we're drinking for six weeks at a time and we know we'll put on at least half a stone.
"And when you've worked really hard on your diet, that does get to you. But if you don't drink, you probably won't last very long on the show."
One person who won't mind if she puts on weight is her boyfriend and co-star Kyle Christie as he only cares about her happiness.
Holly told Closer magazine: "Kyle isn't bothered what weight I am - as long as I'm happy, he's happy.
"But we eat healthily together as he's also on a diet.
"I'm now really happy and healthy - I've come a long way."
