Polar Special:
It's the ultimate test of man against machine - or should that be dog against machine - as the Top Gear team set out on their most ambitious and arduous challenge to date.

See the director's cut of this special. Watch the boys training to the max and preparing as the professionals that they are before a race starting in Canada and finishing at the North Pole.

See The Hamster making friends with dogs, Captain Slow trying to be the first person to ever travel to the North Pole who didn't want to be there, and Jeremy just being his usual cool, calm and collected self.

Clarkson and May, in a seriously modified Toyota, take on Hammond and his dog sled in a 450 mile race to the North Pole as they drive over thin ice to face in-tent hostilities, polar bear fear and desperate food fantasies. Includes exclusive unseen footage. Released in full 1080p.

Caveat: Due to the nature of filming in extreme environments, some footage was not captured in full HD.

(Polar Special aired in the UK between series 9 and 10.)

   
The Guys:


Jeremy Clarkson

Jeremy is Top Gear's figurehead, looming large at the heart of everything Top Gear stands for. He's the man who made cars interesting even for people who don?t drive thanks to a combination of infectious enthusiasm, polished wit and a realization that most folk do not want to hear tedious mothering over economy and boot space, they just want to know if it is fast and makes people fancy you more.

If Top Gear is like the playground gang you always wanted to join, Jeremy is the leader. He's the oldest, the tallest and he can shout the loudest. Forever ribbing Hammond and May and disagreeing with their

opinions, he is equally able to take their return fire, particularly when his own pig headedness means that one of his ambitious schemes goes catastrophically wrong.

Jeremy can utterly dismiss and destroy a new car with just one well turned sentence yet when he finds something he likes, no one else can be so boisterously passionate and tell you exactly why you should sell one of your kidneys to get one. That is why he is the gaffer.


Richard Hammond

Richard is the closest thing Top Gear has to a pin-up - although let's face it, the competition ain't strong - Richard Hammond brings boyish enthusiasm to go with his boyish looks.

Although Jeremy is forever pointing out how short he is, Richard is feistier than Clarkson and May put together which is why he's always first in line to volunteer for Top Gear's daftest and most dangerous stunts. He's been drowned, frozen and struck by lightning, and yet still Richard comes back for more. And his enthusiasm for everything he does is truly infectious.


When Top Gear held a vote to find the Greatest Car In The World, Richard stepped up to nominate the Land Rover, as he would since as he owns several of them. His advocacy was so passionate and well informed that his choice absolutely romped it to win the vote by a mile. Not just a pretty face then.


James May

James is the 'quiet one', a well-mannered and thoroughly decent chap who often despairs of Jeremy's obsession with screeching round deserted airfields at a million miles per hour. As such, he's the perfect foil to the boisterous Clarkson and excitable Hammond.

James is a man of simple pleasures, never happier than when he's thumbing through Auto Trader looking for a splendid old Bentley he can dream of buying or sitting at the bar in his local with a pint of brown beer and the crossword.


James gives Top Gear an underplayed wit and a quiet dignity, as well an added air of authority that only comes when you employ a bloke who genuinely goes home after the show to spend the evening cleaning up bits of his old motorbike over the bath.


The Stig

Some say he urinates 98 RON petrol, and that he can smell corners.

No one knows when the Stig was born, or how. But we do know why he was placed upon the Earth. To drive quickly.

He has a penchant for prog rock, and rumour has it, likes his eggs sunny side up.

"All we know is- he is called the Stig!"
