From humble beginning as a 1970s motoring show, Top Gear has
achieved world domination. Reaching a peak in the 1990s thanks to
presenter Jeremy Clarkson, the original series faced the axe in
2001 - but Clarkson and producer Andy Wilman successfully pitched a
new format to BBC bosses and Top Gear returned to become the
irrevernt, funny and often controversial show we now know and love.
The addition of Richard Hammond and James May completed the Top
Gear dream team and ratings soared as viewers tuned in to see the
latest Star in a Reasonably Priced Car, arguments ove the Cool Wall
and Power Laps by the mysterious Stig. Recent series have been
defined by their madcap challenges - with predictably hilarious
results. Hour-long specials such as the 1000-mile journey across
the Africa in cars bought for only GBP1500, and a race to the
magnetic North Pole in which Clarkson and May became the first
people to drive a motor vehicle to the Pole, have cemented Top
Gear's reputation as much more than just a motoring show. But the
show's most shocking moment came in 2006, when Hammond suffered
serious head injuries while driving a Vampire turbojet drag racing
car at over 300mph.
