People of Birmingham: clear the 11th to the 13th of November. People of London: clear the 24th-27th of November. Why? It’s only Top Gear Live.
Yep, a real-live, in-front-of-your-nose version of Top Gear telly will lollop into Birmingham’s National Exhibition Centre and the London ExCel centre on the dates above.
There will be stars in reasonably priced cars. There will be Ferraris. There will be Group B rally cars. There will be a faithful recreation of our shambolic TV studio. There will be a Stig. And there’s even a chance you’ll see some spectacular crashing.
That’s because, for the first time in the history of ever, Top Gear Live has a massive indoor circuit designed by Lotus Motorsport (the people behind our test track down at Dunsfold). Which means the cars’ll get up to proper, grown-up speeds. Maybe even triple figures.
This is something that Jeremy is very excited about – even when hungover – as you can see in the video below filmed at Top Gear’s salubrious London HQ. Watch until the end, and you may even pick up some titbits about our Christmas special…

Dear Top Gear,
I was shocked to see that you are gearing up for being elected as prime minister candidate’s.Therin reason ‘grey rinse’ or is that a bet going wrong.Or is the interweb being color unkind?All in all I wish you a nice visit to the small floppy air tent at Burswood,watch out for the hand held radar’s just outside and sex crazed bogan teenage girls.I am sure Mr Hammond came early to Perth as an identical motorbike cruised past me in Perth.
If your short on transport you are welcome to the keys of my Daihatsu Pyzar and give it a bit of fuss Top Gear style.Thank you regards LandRoverPETER.

Well done Jeremy, nothing better than seeing a union show how little humour the Communists retain when they are being soundly thrashed by reality.
Who are these people? Frankly I’d put the union barons in stocks and throw fruit at them, (still in the tins), and then show the nation their pension benefits, wages, and how they impose pension settlements on the union employee that are far worse than they demand the British tax payer should fund for their members.
Oh, and that’s not to mention their staff being paid from the public purse.
Don’t back down, we’re relying on the likes of you to hold these morons to account.
Call it revenge for making suggestions to that other Communist Tony Benn that it would be a good idea to destroy the British owned car manufacturing base with one signature.
