So the BBC has decided to give fans of Top Gear a lovely Christmas present in exchange for having stolen tonight's (December 16th) slot for the purpose of broadcasting a Snooker match.
Next Sunday night will be Top Gear night. No, there won't be a 3 hour long episode of Top Gear or 3 back to back brand spanking new episodes either. Instead we get the next best thing, 3 Top Gear related episodes. Here's the schedule:
James May: My Sister's Top Toys, 7pm, BBC Two
James May talking about Girl's toys that he played with as a result of being the male child sandwiched between an older and younger sister.Top Gear, 8pm, BBC Two
The perfect ending to a weekend.Richard Hammond Meets Evel Knievel, 9pm, BBC Two
(All times are GMT)
Richard's 4 day stay with the stunt legend during the summer of 2007
As a special bonus, the feature for the episode will be a 3-way shootout between the new BMW M3, Mercedes Benz C63 & the Audi RS4!
As an extra special bonus for all your Doctor Who fans out there, the Doctor himself will be making an appearance* (under his assumed name David Tennant of course), as the star in a reasonably priced car. In his last avatar as Christopher Eccleston the Doctor appeared to make it around the track in the Suzuki Liana in 1.52.4
I wonder how much better he will do this time around.
Hopefully all 3 episodes will show up online in a timely manner.
* pun intended
