- Top Gear is an International Emmy Award-winning BBC television series about motor vehicles, primarily cars. Its success story began in 1977 as a conventional motoring magazine show. Over time & especially since the relaunch in 2002, it has developed a quirky, humorous style. The show is currently presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, James May & The Stig (an anonymous test driver). The programme is estimated to have 350 million viewers worldwide!
Top Gear is also shown on Dave, BBC America, SBS in Australia & a number of other television channels around the world. The popularity of the show has led to the creation of three international versions, with local production teams & presenters, for Australia, the United States & Russia.
