1 Episode 1
6/20/09
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May set out to discover what Top Gear might have been like 60 years ago in a race from London to Edinburgh. James grabs himself a gorgeous old Jaguar XK120 whilst Richard chooses the brutal but rather fantastically named Vincent Black Shadow motorbike. Meanwhile, in an almost unprecedented move, Jeremy takes the train. The Ferrari FXX is put through its paces on a power lap, and the Stig takes off his helmet to reveal his true identity, but not everyone is convinced.
2 Episode 2
6/27/09
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May attempt to find the perfect car for 17-year-olds, negotiating insurance companies, accident repairs and a very muddy music festival car park in the process. Plus, Richard goes to Abu Dhabi to test the new Lamborghini Murcielago SV and stages the world's first ever race between the 1000 horsepower Bugatti Veyron and the mighty McLaren F1. Back in the studio the star in the reasonably priced car is Twittering national treasure Stephen Fry.
3 Episode 3
7/5/09
The credit crunch is confronted head on as the boys attempt to find three sensibly priced small cars that won't make you miserable, a process that involves haranguing bankers, harnessing large dogs, and almost getting arrested. Plus, James meets American stunt driving legend Ken Block, Jeremy tests the mildly insane Mercedes SL Black on the track, and Michael McIntyre is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
4 Episode 4
7/11/09
Jeremy Clarkson gets chased by the British Army in some of their latest and most deadly toys. Meanwhile, Richard Hammond and James May compare the new Porsche Panamera against a small envelope, a 39p stamp and the logistical might of the Royal Mail in a race from one end of the British Isles to the other. Plus, Olympic gold medal-winning sprinter Usain Bolt is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
5 Episode 5
7/18/09
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May seek petrolhead heaven in three 1500 pound rear-wheel drive coupes and somehow find themselves entered in a terrifying French ice race. Meanwhile, Richard tries to speed up summer holiday flights by inventing the sport of airport vehicle racing, Jeremy walks with dinosaurs in the new BMW Z4, and actress Sienna Miller is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
6 Episode 6
7/25/09
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May immerse themselves in the world of classic cars to find out if they really are, as the anoraks claim, more fun than modern machinery. Armed with a budget of £3000 each they attempt to buy a pre-1982 car at auction. Then the trio are sent off to Majorca to take part in one very big challenge - a seemingly unfathomable classic car rally. Bona fide rock God Brian Johnson is the star in the Reasonably Priced Car.
7 Episode 7
8/1/09
Jeremy Clarkson and James May are set the task of creating a memorable car advert. The boys quickly fall out on set as James tries to fill every second of airtime with immensely complicated information about fuel economy, whilst Jeremy just wants everything to explode. Meanwhile, out on the track, Richard Hammond ends up going mostly sideways in the new Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst. The Cool Wall returns after a long absence, and American chat show legend Jay Leno is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

5 stars for every single Season and Episode before that, which I bought and paid for so Jez, Jim, and Dick get my money. But that's it now. The BBC can stick Top Gear up their arses for being such fools - and stick their 'TV licence fee' up their arses! The fee of which is an international laughing point for Britain because the fee is unwarranted, illegal, and fraudulent but you keep paying it and allow yourselves to be bullied by them... Grow a spine, Britain.

Kept skipping forward over the evans central bits. Matt was good but the rest was lacking. Big shoes to fill, I'll give it another try after they have retooled it a bit.
