Jeremy Clarkson warns some of his cider bottles ‘might explode’

'Open it while wearing a Hurt Locker suit'

The Television star issued a statement on Twitter in which he said that there had been a "massive c---up" leading to a "slim-chance" some bottles of Hawkstone cider may erupt.

Clarkson advised anyone who had bought some of the cider to open it under water and pour the contents of it down the sink, as well as offering a full refund.

Those affected will carry the code L3160 on their cap.

Hawkstone cider is brewed by Cotswold Brewing Co in Gloucestershire and according to Clarkson, some of the cider was over-fermenting.

Clarkson added: "Really sorry about this but on the upside, the beer is fine and still delicious. As is the cider, in bottles that are unaffected. Which is almost all of them."
