The Ashes (16x2) Jeremy, Richard and James welcome their colleagues from Australian Top Gear to Britain by picking them up in a prison van and calling all three of them ‘Bruce’ as Top Gear once again teeters on the brink of an international incident. Car Trains (17x4) Top Gear sets out to solve the problem of expensive rail tickets by making locomotives from old luxury cars and carriages from ancient caravans. What could possible go wrong? Apart from a prominent railway author getting covered in flies and poo. Cars for 17-Year-Olds (13x2) What’s the ideal affordable, insurable, second hand car for someone who’s just passed their driving test? The presenters mentally knock upwards of 25 years off their own ages to find out. Warning: Contains the sight of James May wigging out to dance music whilst wearing a very silly hat. Snowbine (16x5) The presenters decide to save Britain from the annual blizzard of headlines proclaiming ‘snow chaos’ by making normally idle combine harvesters work through the winter as snow ploughs. What could possibly go wrong with that? Apart from setting a man alight… Four-Seater Convertibles (16x4) Jeremy, Richard and James are told to buy second hand, four seater convertibles for a challenge, fail to compare notes and accidentally end up with exactly the same sort of car. Although actually, they prove to be very different. Especially when it comes to what’s been left in the interior. Demolition (17x5) Can the presenters knock down a cluster of condemned houses using left over military hardware faster than a team of professionals can do it with proper demolition equipment? Erm… what do you think? Skoda Yeti (16x1) Jeremy embarks on a typically thorough test of a new family car involving fire, a helicopter, some ice cream, two dogs and a well known British actress in the glovebox. Amy Williams vs. WRC Mini (17x1) Radiant Winter Olympian and official Friend Of Top Gear Amy Williams gamely agrees to race unradiant and sport-o-phobic James May in a snow-bound battle between man and machine. Well, girl and machine. Jaguar XJ vs. The Sun (16x6) It’s a big Jag against the Big One as Jeremy decides to race against the very centre of the universe. Sort of. The rising and setting of the sun is more to do with the rotation of the earth but let’s not get bogged down in that now. Range Rover Evoque (17x3) James travels to the United States to drive the exciting new baby Range Rover. Contains dramatic scenery, light off roading and a well known diva with a suspiciously large Adam’s apple. Amputee Rally (17x6) Richard meets the world’s pluckiest and most unusual rally team as they prepare to take on the challenge of a lifetime. Also featuring an appearance from a very old friend who has to promise not to write another book about it. Jaguar E-Type 50th (17x1) Jeremy celebrates the 50th birthday of the Jaguar E-type in typically understated style and drives the re-made Eagle Speedster which he proclaims to be the most beautiful thing in the entire world. Marauder Richard is in South Africa to drive quite possibly the world’s toughest thing. And drive it he does…right over some cars, through a wall and onto a big pile of explosives. DVD Features : • Stig’s Cousins’ Laps • Unseen Interview Clips of Sebastian Vettel, Jonathan Ross, Ryan Reynolds, Ross Noble and Alice Cooper • Interceptors’ Titles Sequence • Amy Williams’ Helmet Cam Footage • Desert & Ice Montage • Deleted Scenes Cast List: Jeremy Clarkson Jeremy is Top Gear’s figurehead, looming large at the heart of everything Top Gear stands for. He’s the man who made cars interesting even for people who don’t drive thanks to a combination of infectious enthusiasm, polished wit and a realization that most folk don’t want to hear tedious mothering over economy and boot space, they just want to know if it’s fast and makes people fancy you more. If Top Gear is like the playground gang you always wanted to join, Jeremy is the leader. He’s the oldest, the tallest and he can shout the loudest. Forever ribbing Hammond and May and disagreeing with their opinions, he’s equally able to take their return fire, particularly when his own pig headedness means that one of his ambitious schemes goes catastrophically wrong. Jeremy can utterly dismiss and destroy a new car with just one well turned sentence yet when he finds something he likes, no one else can be so boisterously passionate and tell you exactly why you should sell one of your kidneys to get one. That’s why he’s the gaffer. Richard Hammond Richard is the closest thing Top Gear has to a pin-up – although let’s face it, the competition ain’t strong – Richard Hammond brings boyish enthusiasm to go with his boyish looks. Although Jeremy is forever pointing out how short he is, Richard is feistier than Clarkson and May put together which is why he’s always first in line to volunteer for Top Gear’s daftest and most dangerous stunts. He’s been drowned, frozen and struck by lightning, and yet still Richard comes back for more. And his enthusiasm for everything he does is truly infectious. When Top Gear held a vote to find the Greatest Car In The World, Richard stepped up to nominate the Land Rover, as he would since as he owns several of them. His advocacy was so passionate and well informed that his choice absolutely romped it to win the vote by a mile. Not just a pretty face then. James May James is the ‘quiet one’, a well-mannered and thoroughly decent chap who often despairs of Jeremy’s obsession with screeching round deserted airfields at a million miles per hour. As such, he’s the perfect foil to the boisterous Clarkson and excitable Hammond. James is a man of simple pleasures, never happier than when he’s thumbing through Auto Trader looking for a splendid old Bentley he can dream of buying or sitting at the bar in his local with a pint of brown beer and the crossword. James gives Top Gear an underplayed wit and a quiet dignity, as well an added air of authority that only comes when you employ a bloke who genuinely goes home after the show to spend the evening cleaning up bits of his old motorbike over the bath. The Stig A man who has no fear... and no face. Found in a manger in Bethlehem. He's only a month old but the good news is that Stigs grow up very quickly. He's already been to school. He's been a teenager. But now he's here.. and he's ready to go to work. "Please welcome... Top Gear's NEW STIG!"

Hello :-) IMPORTANT DVD INFORMATION FOR MY US & CANADIAN CUSTOMERS: As per the auction these are Europe Region 2+4 DVDs (US/Canada are Region 1) and you need a multi-regional (multi-zone) DVD player to play them! BUT don't panic just yet :-) Many DVD players are easy to unlock. Let me know the brand and model number of your DVD player so I see if there is a simple unlock code for your player. Many of my US/Canadian customers chose to play or copy these DVDs on a PC before playing them. I also see there are many economical Multi Region DVD players on EBay ($35-50). Just do a search if you wish. It seems a shame to let go of this great DVD set. Cheers :-)
