Posted by The Mole at 10:10 am on Thursday June 4, 2009

Official Friends of Top Gear, Anthony Reid and Tom Chilton – both Touring Car drivers by day – make an appearance in this low-budget, car-tastic music video made by Owen Trevor – who also directs stuff on the telly show – for singer-songwriter Andy J Gallagher:

James May's garden

Pacing the room, twiddling your thumbs and crushing pint glasses to dust with your bare hands as you wait for the new series of Top Gear (which may or may definitely not start on June 21) on BBC Two? Then why not head down to Chelsea Flower Show?

This week’s telly filming

Posted by The Mole at 11:37 am on Wednesday December 10, 2008

The telly show this week has something of a green theme about it (which is a bit ironic ‘cos we could do with a bit of global warming here at the studio today, it’s freezing again).

Last night in London Jeremy, Richard and James officially revealed our Cars of the Year. You already know the shortlist – we let that out of the bag a few weeks ago – but the boys finally picked an overall winner in time for our awards bash, described by one onlooker as ’surprisingly noisy’.

A right mayor

Posted by The Mole at 9:19 pm on Sunday December 7, 2008

For a while, it looked like the appearance of London’s mayor Boris Johnson was going to be the highlight of the show. He was good natured with Jeremy’s probing, enjoyed his time, and gave the track as good as he could in atrocious conditions. But then Jeremy decided to do a roadtest.

It’s a cold one!

Posted by The Mole at 12:15 pm on Wednesday December 3, 2008

The Mole is cold at the studio, but things are underway for Top Gear Rehearsals. Man flu seems to be doing the rounds but it’s not proving to dampen anyone’s spirits. Always a good sign of the show to come!

Did you miss it?

Posted by The Mole at 3:39 pm on Monday December 1, 2008

Don’t forget that if you missed Top Gear on the telly last night then you can watch it on the good old BBC iPlayer, if you’re in the UK. And even if you did see it, it’s worth watching again just for that beautiful Daytona vs James’ boat film.
