Quote:
In Top Gear's most ambitious and arduous challenge to date Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond attempt to race from Northern Canada to the North Pole, 450 miles away. The terrain in between is some of the toughest on earth - a mix of mountainous land masses and jagged sea ice where temperatures can drop to a mind-numbing minus 65 degrees Celcius. Jeremy and James will be driving a specially adapted pick up truck whilst Richard will be travelling on something a little less high tech - a sled pulled by a team of ten Canadian Inuit Dogs.

YESSS! images/smilies/biggrin.gif Less than 2 weeks before some new Top Gear! Sounds too good to be true.

An advance thank you to all the hard-working men and women who make the internet distribution miracle possible. No true Australian enjoys waiting a full year before fresh TG trickles onto SBS. images/smilies/wink.gif

Sounds really good as long as it is mostly real. I hope they don't go the way of the "entertainment show" they are transforming into and just have a whole lot of made up events and scenarios to make all more exciting for the mainstream audience.

Awesome! So I take it Hammond's team will have Siberian Huskies? I've got two, so i'm hoping so!

Nice to see James with Jeremy on a race for once, too. They were great together when they did the Pacific Rimmers.

Shame its on my bithday - not because I don't want new Top Gear as a birthday present but because we're visiting my father-in-law at his new house in Northern Portugal and even thoug he has SKY I doubt he'll let me watch Top Gear.
