I must admit I had been thinking similar thoughts to Clarkson about the whole thing. Generally speaking, you can only pay INTO an account with the sort code and account number, but I hadn't thought about direct debits.
As it happens, the Direct Debit Guarantee scheme covers this anyway:
The direct debit guarantee applies to all banks and building societies taking part in the direct debit scheme. It says that
* If there is a change in the amount to be paid or the payment date, the person receiving the payment (the originator) must notify the customer in advance.
* If the originator or the bank/building society makes an error, the customer is guaranteed a full and immediate refund of the amount paid.
* Customers can cancel a direct debit at any time by writing to their bank or building society.
In Clarkson's case fraud was involved, so I'm sure he will a refund anyway.
Has anyone seen the petition on the Number 10 Downing Street web site? So far 37,335 people have signed up to make Jeremy Clarkson Prime Minister!
