If you still have the files, the £100 car challenge. Can't go wrong with the very first cheap car challenge

[@itsPikachu]

cheap van challenge

"Hang on a minute" "Why's your's so small?" "One more hit and it'll be out" 😂😂😂

[@ROBLOXGamingDavid]

It has a double meaning... Either his canister runs out because its so small, or that one more push, and he is out... (literally, knocked out...)

[@TopGearClassic]

Phrasing!

[@WolvieX23]

2:31 “NO, JAMES THERE’S A MAN IN A BOAT!” *Indistinct Shouting & Panic* - Hammond: “That’s the RSC!” 😂

[@Hassan_9]

whats the RSC?

[@aditya.sagraha]

Royal (Something) Club, I guess?

[@moonpie21012]

Royal Shakespeare Company, which is why Stratford-upon-Avon is famous as Shakespeare came from there

[@zachg9065]

When this first came out I remember dying laughing and my mom was like what is wrong with these 3????

[@the_bencredible]

It’s just as funny in 2024. Richard on the ladder in the lock 😂🤣💀

[@djb-n9l]

Nah, it was past its best by then. It became obvious it was all scripted(I knew it was scripted, but this was obvious).

[@pooki-dooki]

@@djb-n9l Did you give yourself a pat on the back for discovering this secret after seeing writers in the credits?

[@djb-n9l]

@pooki-dooki I knew it was scripted. But by this time any tom dick Harry could tell.

[@mOTHgOBLIN]

​@@djb-n9l apart from the first seasons which were more actual car review, it was always obviously scripted. I think anyone with above a room temp IQ knew it was scripted, like all TV.

[@wheresmymind315]

Anyone else going over old top gear and grand tour episodes after watching final episode of them or is it just me? Ive seen most of the clips dozen of times but watch them again and puts a smile on my face.

[@lcephoenix]

yup. precisely why i'm here

[@shanujwilson1204]

me too!

[@lolligaggin63]

this was the funniest episode ever. Hammond crawling on the ladder getting drenched just quietly saying “oh no” is so fucking hilarious

[@azzyclark3860]

awaiting full-length uploads of the specials: - (Bronze) Vietnam - (Silver) Alabama - (Gold) Botswana

[@topmandog1]

never going to happen lol

[@christopherspringer2764]

Vietnam is definitely gold, my friend. Polar Special is silver, and Botswana is Bronze. The runner ups are Uganda and Romania, respectively.

[@jamesharvey7793]

They’re all on iPlayer…

[@CB21001]

Yep check iPlayer, they're all on there. Please never remove them BBC, you surely don't realisd how brilliant they are. The single reason I use iPlayer personally

[@ThisisForTheTV]

Burma special.

[@tallesttreeintheforest]

the man in a suit rowing a boat was the most obvious actor plant in top gear history

[@thlee3]

nothing was staged on Top Gear

[@keirgomcginlay2044]

Plenty was. They've even talked bout it. Like with the Robin Reliant.

[@HowToSpec]

Please upload unseen clips never released to public considering this is the official BBC!

[@aggrodriver]

I don't think this is the BBC this is just posting top gear episodes

[@HowToSpec]

@@aggrodriver It says in description its an official BBC commercial account.

[@topmandog1]

@@aggrodriver i emailed them and this is an offical channel

[@aggrodriver]

​@@topmandog1idk they are not uploading longer things and more or less just copy pasting from the top gear main channel. Almost seems like another way to make revenue now top gear is gone for good. That's my opinion

[@topmandog1]

@@aggrodriver well these are new edits, they are higher quality then anything the orginal channel made, and in the police challenge they even edited the police sirens to be different, so maybe that orginal channel is going to be used for just the magazine now?

[@CappuccinoTheCat]

Those people better be paid actors lol

[@sturmovik1274]

If you don't know... look up what Top Gear is.

[@joshdeval9545]

They are

[@iceboi5983]

The BBC would probably temporarily rent out those areas during filming to not bother actual people. So I would expect those to people to be actors, especially the ones on the kayaks. Can't say the same about the boat they crashed into though.

[@AB-sg5wn]

Top Gear likes to piss people off, never mind all this paid actors bullshit

[@DarkPirate647]

If it were anything but a british show I’d say there was a chance they were real, but the bbc is probably way too considerate

[@joelgeorge6996]

I just watched the the final Grand Tour episode, and I'am going to miss these guys. Ive watched Jeremy, James and Richard ever since I was a kid.

[@Jdne199311]

Yep, Nostalgia is double edge sword.

[@joseleon5181]

13:28 YOU PILLOCK!!! 😂😂😂

[@SharpEdgeSoda]

If only I could be so blessed to have my life inconvenienced by the Top Gear crew. Traffic jams, destruction of property, personal injury, if I could be the victim of any of it. Blessed.

[@carlosbarton763]

13:26 Ladies and gents, one of the great one-liners to have graced our television screens

[@C4rb0neum]

“The thing with hovercrafting is it’s brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, disaster”

[@richardhenderson1902]

Hammond: “that’s the best thing I’ve ever survived” 😬

[@markcf83]

WE DID A THING.

[@LiveDonkeyDeadLion]

I am so glad that someone talked the producers out of trying to take this across the channel (and when I say someone, I know who it was as I read the email when it was sent asking for advice and passed it on them)

[@gingerday6654]

the only way to make this clip longer is it to add the studio segment, im fairly sure nothing is cut here

[@mnplumberman]

Hammond "Thant's the best thing I've ever survived!" That's saying a lot coming from him.

[@ferdinand12390]

"you´re gonna miss it!" so James gave into the voices and was going after the guy in the boat?

[@charleslee8313]

"Why don't we just make a sign that says 'Sorry'?"

Gotta love the acting! I wonder how much practice it takes?

Hovervan runs amok in a lock. Good heavens, what a crock! Of the situation, take stock.

[@orionstretch]

Richard-"that's an RS6"🤣🤣🤣🤣

2:49 is that Ben Collins?

[@ColonelPeppers]

The Top Gear crew must have had a big purse to pay for all the damages to the various people. boat owners and restaurants.

[@-DM]

Haha was any of that staged or did they really just cause havoc everywhere they went?

[@topmandog1]

@-DM I believe the man falling off was staged and some of the people on the bank

[@sturmovik1274]

Yes

[@YISTECH]

Both

[@BonnetLicker86313]

as @YISTECH says, both. The soaking / knocking over of people and blowing over the outdoor restaurant chair and tables would have been entirely planned, as would Jeremy getting out of the van in the lock. As ever, the funnier moments often end up being those which weren't planned, such as Jeremy standing on the side and it lifting up and soaking Hammond 😄

[@MrMcChuckles95]

Paid actors/members of the production crew most likely

BBC still milking these trio… have some decency and just kill the new top gear or at the very least rename it…what you have now is not top gear and it will never be top gear without these three

[@slothonmercury]

That wasnt 130

[@garrybaldy327]

2:35 Careful, careful, there's a (stunt)man in a boat. Don't forget to cut away just before he tips the boat over by himself to make it look real and not faked in any way. .......Well done.
