Hammond - By: T. Norval, 19 Feb 2007 
I don't think I have ever seen this particular DVD but have the best intentions on seeing. I think it would be brilliant though based on the fact that Richard Hammond is gorgeous!!!
Top Gear! - By: Kimmy, 31 Jan 2005 There is absolutely no doubt that Top Gear is one of the greatest shows on television. There are so many reasons for this that it would be impossible for me to write them alll here, so I'll sum them up.
Firstly, this show is beautiful. As a camera operator, I can say that Top Gear has been a real inspiration to my work since the new style of the show started. The articles on the show are always visuallly stunning, with fantastic soundtracks. This is a creative producer's dream.
Secondly, the show is hilarious. The producers knew that they had to get a wide audience without losing the 'boys toys' element of the programme, which is why so much silliness happens. But it's great, because every responsible driver on the road needs to let their hair down, & to see Richard Hammond destroy a caravan with gravity is a light-hearted stunt to make even the most stiff-upper-lipped driver chuckle.
Thirdly, the guests are great. Even if they're not particularly famous, the viewer warms to them instantly with the simple "Star In A Reasonably Priced Car" section. Seeing a famous person in a tight helmet driving a Liana round a track is humbling, even to Patrick Stewart (who was excellent). Jeremy Clarkson, whether you love him or hate him, is great with the guests & always gets a laugh.
And, my final point (for now), the combination of Clarkson, Hammond & May on a show dedicated to honouring great cars & laughing at bad ones is spot on. A show that brings together great presenters, interesting cars & tremendous production is a hard thing to achieve, but Top Gear does is perfectly.
Buy this DVD & immortalise this pristine show on your shelf; it's worth every penny.
Fantastic - By: , 04 Jan 2004 We don't get Top Gear in Australia, so I was lucky enough to be sent this DVD for Christmas & it reallly is good stuff. Not like your usual car crap, these guys reallly have fun throwing fast, high priced cars around on the track coupled with that trademark British dry wit.
Not enough - By: C. Coney, 19 Oct 2003 
I dont know about you but i dont think that this DVD should include any of the celebrity interviews. I have a recording of each of the top gear shows that i put on DVD. The problem with having the celebrity interviews on there is that they are quite topical. If you are gonna be forking out £12 i want the DVD just full of end to end car review films.
Cars Mania!!!! - By: , 11 Oct 2003 This is fabulaous footage of Top Gear. The presenters (especiallly Jeremy Clarkson) are very entertaining & alll have good things to say. There are mad car tests & celebrity gests.
