Jeremy, Richard and James pulled off the first of this weekend’s Top Gear Live shows at London’s Earls Court in fine style last night, with the Stig pulling off a world first indoor loop-the-loop…
Following a few last minute re-writes and a couple of problems with the Stig’s car, the boys made a dramatic improvement from the final rehearsal, to such an extent that we’re not quite sure how they did it.
The boys show that the future of motorsport is safe in their hands, with the invention of Reliant Robin racing, and the Cool Wall gets another outing after last year’s storming showing – where the audience vote cool or no via some red/green cards.
Afterwards over a few beers, all three presenters agreed it was their best ever first night performance, and they’re all looking forward to doing it again tonight.
So if you’re going over the weekend you can expect it to be even better than you’ve seen before.
If you are going to see Top Gear Live this weekend, then visit our Facebook page and upload/link to your photos. We’ll be making a best-of gallery on Monday to run on TopGear.com.

cool
can’t wait for the show in holland!
sounds great – can’t wait til next friday cos thats when i’m going – its my fortieth birthday present to myself!!
Ha! Beat you by minutes with our review – http://bit.ly/2X0lk1
@Linda: me neither!
Go topgear go!
Great 1st show espeacially enjoyed one of our group getting ribbed by clarkson for owning a q7 and was surprised when clarkson asked Jay Kay for comments during cool wall session he was sat right behind us! Jimmy carr was a surprise as well. Keep it up guys cant wait for top gear 14!
wow that looks amasing i wish i saw it
LOVED IT!!! It was hilarious! Loved the Stig’s bit! Great show lads. Can’t wait for Series 14!
woah
that was one hell of a stunt.
i have to know what was his face like after that? xD
If you film it each year (I see it on big screens every time I go there), how come it’s never been released on DVD? You could stitch together all the best bits from each venue together, interview some fans who aren’t bust gawping at Koenigseggs and Zondas in the show hall, it would be awesome.
Cutting edge of cocking about
i cant wait for friday the 13th, top gear live will be amazing!

I took my three nephews today and we had a brilliant time. I enjoyed it last year, but this year’s show is even better! It was great family entertainment and the boys loved every minute (especially Stig). Thank you Top Gear for making me (apparently) the best auntie… IN THE WORLD!
Ahem…Top Gear Live – North America.
I’m thinking one show in the northeast…say New York, one in California…and lets toss the Canadians a break and give em one in Vancouver or Toronto.

Ahh went on sunday and the stigs car brokedown while he was shooting at one of the other cars just befor the loop the loop. i loved the cool wall thing and the game with the red and geen cards where you had to shoutas loud as you can ahh it was good. iw was on hammonds team with a rather smaller team (James team had like three quarters of a millon (they said that themselves)) and we lost but hey it was the best day out ever. and i loved it when they announced that fifth gear would never be on again and we all booed alol. i came home with four ags full of stuff !! <3
smart stunt awsome cant wait sundays episod
The bbc dont seem to know how good TOPGEAR is maybe they should forget about all the political correctness and do more programs for blokes normal blokes ps if TG wants some great roads the road to Rhonda from Marbella is fantastic
Was there Saturday and Sunday with my mates, front row seats both days.
Excellent show, cars in Top Gear Live were brilliant, the Stig was awesome as usual.
Hope James has recovered from the signing madness for his Brain Training and the T shirt signing, it was a bit manic, but much better organised on the Sunday.
Could you please consider the MEN arena in Manchester next year when doing Top Gear live, they used to hold the Car show at G-Mex and that was much smaller, MEN is massive.
Good luck for the NEC.
Cant w8 for them to Comeback to Hong Kog Again!
Top Gear Rocks! Oooooooorrrraaaaaaahhhhhh hhh!!!
WOW! this just made me even more excited than i already was
Cant wait, seeing them in birmingham
well excited, at least richard is off his crutches
That dancing girl in the introduction, Naiomi right, BLOODY HELL she was hot! By the way the whole show was fantastic beyond belief. Cheers Top Gear!
This show fantanic Top Gear Live and all cars are super!!
The Stig looks different tonight – he is sitting all wrong – I think he has changed
i went nec! show was awsome but the motor show had half the cars missing from the actual mph list, was gutted there was no veyron but oh well still a gr8 experience!!!
