1 Episode 1
09/06/21
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May set out to discover what Top Gear might have been like 60 years ago in a race from London to Edinburgh. James grabs himself a gorgeous old Jaguar XK120 whilst Richard chooses the brutal but rather fantastically named Vincent Black Shadow motorbike. Meanwhile, in an almost unprecedented move, Jeremy takes the train. The Ferrari FXX is put through its paces on a power lap, and the Stig takes off his helmet to reveal his true identity, but not everyone is convinced.
2 Episode 2
09/06/28
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May attempt to find the perfect car for 17-year-olds, negotiating insurance companies, accident repairs and a very muddy music festival car park in the process. Plus, Richard goes to Abu Dhabi to test the new Lamborghini Murcielago SV and stages the world's first ever race between the 1000 horsepower Bugatti Veyron and the mighty McLaren F1. Back in the studio the star in the reasonably priced car is Twittering national treasure Stephen Fry.
3 Episode 3
09/07/05
The credit crunch is confronted head on as the boys attempt to find three sensibly priced small cars that won't make you miserable, a process that involves haranguing bankers, harnessing large dogs, and almost getting arrested. Plus, James meets American stunt driving legend Ken Block, Jeremy tests the mildly insane Mercedes SL Black on the track, and Michael McIntyre is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
4 Episode 4
09/07/12
Jeremy Clarkson gets chased by the British Army in some of their latest and most deadly toys. Meanwhile, Richard Hammond and James May compare the new Porsche Panamera against a small envelope, a 39p stamp and the logistical might of the Royal Mail in a race from one end of the British Isles to the other. Plus, Olympic gold medal-winning sprinter Usain Bolt is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
5 Episode 5
09/07/19
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May seek petrolhead heaven in three 1500 pound rear-wheel drive coupes and somehow find themselves entered in a terrifying French ice race. Meanwhile, Richard tries to speed up summer holiday flights by inventing the sport of airport vehicle racing, Jeremy walks with dinosaurs in the new BMW Z4, and actress Sienna Miller is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
6 Episode 6
09/07/26
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May immerse themselves in the world of classic cars to find out if they really are, as the anoraks claim, more fun than modern machinery. Armed with a budget of £3000 each they attempt to buy a pre-1982 car at auction. Then the trio are sent off to Majorca to take part in one very big challenge - a seemingly unfathomable classic car rally. Bona fide rock God Brian Johnson is the star in the Reasonably Priced Car.
7 Episode 7
09/08/02
Jeremy Clarkson and James May are set the task of creating a memorable car advert. The boys quickly fall out on set as James tries to fill every second of airtime with immensely complicated information about fuel economy, whilst Jeremy just wants everything to explode. Meanwhile, out on the track, Richard Hammond ends up going mostly sideways in the new Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst. The Cool Wall returns after a long absence, and American chat show legend Jay Leno is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

About this show

It began life in 1977 as a conventional motoring magazine show. Relaunched in 2002 in a longer format, it pulled in an international audience of around 150 million viewers around the world. Irreverent, witty and unbiasedly honest, the Top Gear team and The Stig take cars to the limit and beyond to find out if they're any good or not. If you want to know how big the boot is, look elsewhere. Full of stunts, challenges and special features, Top Gear is self-deprecating, inclusive and passionate, giving authoritative information, entertainment and no little style.

The firts episode of the new season sucks! The kind of cheerful environment they built, the new presenter (Chris), no more Clarkson jokes, no Hammond and no Captain Slow, makes the show boring. Do you really think we were watching To Gear to find out about cars? It was an epic, funny show that you want to watch after a week of hard work. Now it sucks!

The new Top Gear only has one good thing going for it that's Matt LeBlanc BBC should have given up after letting Jeremy Clarkson go. Chris Evans was totally useless in my opinion and by the looks of it online support from fans I'm not the only one it's pretty bad when even the Brits like an American better than their own Brit. With Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond gone the show will never be ever the same. So everybody let's show BBC that they screwed up and start supporting The Grand Tour.
