Ironically, at least based on what the announcer says, you can't watch that episode on iPlayer as it's too old. images/smilies/lol.gif

I've just watched a behind the scenes look at the making of that trail (where James and Richard turned up late) and it was funnier than the actual trail itself.

I can't post the behind the scenes vid as its internal BBC only but it basically went

Clarkson complaining about James and Richard being late all the time

More Clarkson Complaining

Richard and James Turnup

Richard and James talk about how poor Jeremy doesn't have a life and has nothing better to do so gets there early all the time.

I think they knew what they were doing with the trail - the other one features David Attenb... bloke talking about the Snow Lepoard shot in Planet Earth.

It's about showing off favourite moments in BBC history that you might have missed.

Making the Unmissable ... Unmissable.
