Jeremy Clarkson 'in potential contract breach' over sat nav deal Profits from their sale were donated to Children in Need. The report found that BBC Worldwide failed to recognised conflict of interest issues that arose, which should have led to an immediate referral to BBC Editorial Policy. It said that when it did become aware, the editorial team should have dealt with it more quickly. The report said that the original proposal "would have put the presenter in potential breach of his contract in relation to conflict of interest." It would also have raised "issues of consistency and fair dealing with other non-Top Gear talent." In addition, Top Gear would have faced difficulties in endorsing one model of satnav system, given that it gives consumer advice on cars. Top Gear is described in the report as "one of BBC Worldwide's most successful global brands" which is shown in almost 200 different countries and is backed by sales of books, toys, clothes and other products including toothbrushes and duvet sets. The BBC said Clarkson "did not receive any remuneration for his work."
