I love that for a split second you see Jeremy lose his professionalism when he gets pushed into the water. He was about to snap and say, โhow dare you talk to me like thatโ then remembered heโs being filmed. I think itโs the only time weโve seen the actual Jeremy apart from a couple scenes in Clarksonโs Farm

I'm very late to this party but I just watched this and found this webpage which gives details regarding the plane they came across.

Top gear also gave some brilliant random episodes that I donโt think are necessarily classed as specials, e.g. building amphibious vehicles. Really worth a watch

I don't know how many times I've watched this but I just realized that I recognize the song at 8:33 but can't remember what is is.

ive got the 2 dvd's the challenges (consist of the cheap car challenges and races etc) which going to send to king boomer at some point as well
Chris Fulcher

they are on the cards for future possibly one after next already sent the next one but thinking the florida to new orleans as the one after next, letting king n queen boomer deal with bringing the princess home first

I think just in order is best, then move on to Grand Tour specials if he enjoys it

Im absolutely astonished that the masses havnt asked you to watch the USA special, not only is it one of the best but youd also get an extra kick out of it as its set in america. very strange.

The Top Gear specials are all great but their differnt races and cheap car challenges are all great as well.

I think there was some scenes missing from this special. If I remember correctly there was a bit where Clarkson & May find an abandoned building

If I remember rightly, they started falling off in a hot bath which he was told not to have lol and then cut them off himself haha... He's a proper English eccentric that you just don't get any more.

I actually think that's the weakest of the Grand Tour specials... The Mongolian one is by far the best and even better than many of the Top Gear specials!

To be honest, it looks like youโre not enjoying the top gear specials, and thatโs fine of course but itโs probably not worth watching because you seem like youโd donโt understand thatโs itโs a comedy show and the actual car/serious part is usually a side part of the show. You seem to not really pay attention on these as much as well. Iโm honestly not having a go but Iโm just being honest as I love your reactions usually.

Good call, but just the first one though. The second one is ruined by McGreggor's ex wife doing a "Yoko", and the third one is just taken up with them going from one charging point to another.

Don't think he had any interest in this one. He missed the polar bear stalking Hammond and the toilet joke with may.

No, it made me laugh, I hate being too hot!
Too hot in the Summer, then in Winter everyone puts the heating on...

Hammond has a full Crew too, the Insurance on him is too high to leave him with just a camera man haha

Also, they didn't go to the geographic North Pole, they didn't even leave Canada, they went to the 1996 position of the Magnetic North Pole, which is constantly moving, they were only 150 miles away from the nearest town and from what I've read anywhere between 800-1200 miles away from the geographic North Pole, there was actually inhabited places still further north than where they reached, but it is only an entertainment show!!! ๐

OK 5 minutes in... Jermey says this is basically midnight so the lights are useless...... King boomer says, they'll come in handy at night ๐๐

I love the cold and snow. We went to the arctic circle a few years ago; it was 2C in Manchester, landed in Finland at -25C and it felt more comfortable because it was so dry. But when I tried to make a snowman it failed miserably for that same reason...

Can I recommend Jeremy's WW2 Documentary on the Commando's greatest raid of all time?
I've seen it 3 times but not for a while and I think you will love it!

Awesome special, Sir Ranulph Fiennes didn't tell the full story there, when he got home he was told by the doctors he had to wait to have his fingers amputated, but he couldn't handle the pain, so he cut them off himself in his workshop with an electric saw. ๐ช๐คฎ

Boomer if you like this you really should check out the series the long way round in which Ewan Mcgreggor and Charlie Boorman take motorbikes from London to New York the long way round

interesting fact about this special. It was the first BBC aired episode to be shot in full HD 1080P. Not that important trivia but it's interesting because Top Gear had this treatment whereas david attenborough didn't!

This is my favourite by a long stretch. Was the first time I'd ever seen anything in HD at home and that scenery blew my mind.
KB, I think you'd find the Grand Tour special 'Carnage A Trois' really funny.

I can't remember if it was a special but i remember an episode which involved a car, motorbike and a steam train that one was a great episode.

There's also some great specials they did for their current show The Grand Tour. One that springs to mind is the Mongolia where they had to build a car and travel through all sorts of terrain in it.
There also one I think you would like called Seamen, they tavel through Cambodia and Vietnam on boats and you get a nice chunk of history with that one.

The only Top Gear/Grand Tour special that I've found disappointing is the 'Massive Hunt' episode. That one felt like a lazy retread of their other specials.

Can't go wrong with most of the top gear specials really. Enjoy them even more so because you do them every so often.

I'm not sure we'll be able to choose other than the occasional film whilst the Queen is pregnant/the baby is very young. Upload rate is insanely fast though and I'm watching 4 shows out of 7/8 and all the Top Gear episodes, so no complaints here at all, keep up the good work
