There’ll Be A Top Gear Special On The BBC This Christmas, And Clarkson’s In It
Top Gear may have a new host in the form of Chris Evans, but that doesn’t mean the BBC is quite finished with Jeremy Clarkson and co post fracas. This Christmas, the Corporation will be airing a special two-part show to celebrate Clarkson, Hammond and May’s time fronting TG, titled ‘Top Gear: From A-Z’.
The BBC says that the show “will feature astonishing footage, insider facts and quirky statistics from the past 13 years of the world’s biggest motoring show. It’ll laugh with the best, the oddest and the silliest moments from Top Gear, in alphabetical order, with each of the letters introduced by a star guest from the Top Gear celebrity fold.”
Of course, the trio of presenters won’t actually be doing anything new for the show since they’re no longer with the BBC (in case you’ve been living under a rock for the last few months, you might like to know that they’ll be presenting a new show with Amazon Prime that debuts next year), so instead comedian and former Star in the Reasonably Priced Car guest John Bishop will be on voiceover duties.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Those guys are my idols. Always wanted to be just like them. Hell, who didnt? They always went through hell and back but they always smiled about it later. Thick skin and a stiff upper lip. The Trio’s Way.
Amazon. A to Z. Anyone else find that interesting? Lol, if you didn’t know the Amazon logo highlights A through Z.
This is a good thing to do before the new show starts. Closure on the old one. Ok, yes, it could be done better. I still believe they got the wrong Chris (should have been Chris Harris!)
BBC knows the f’ed up real bad and lost their cash cow…..it’s going to be stupid though, jeremy isn’t going to be narrating the show so some doucheclown will make it suck….
BBC - Bringed Back Clarkson?
I’d rather watch dubbed Top Gear China than any other Top Gear shows that are left. Without the trio it’s just a bunch of spin offs. Can’t wait to see them back in action. Will be canceling Netflix and switching to Prime. You can’t have only one or even two of them. We want all three or GTFO. I can’t imagine the show otherwise. And on that bombshell….. I feel sorry for The Stig :(
How else is BBC supposed to get the views it needs for the holidays?
Milk, much ?
its quite sad to see top gear and these 3 part ways, that was the only tv show i ever watched and loved for years
