They didn't actually make it to the north pole.

TV tricked us all yet again.

They went to the magnetic north pole....or more specifically the place where the magnetic north pole was in 1997.

I think it may have been green land.

24 hr race as brilliant. However, nothing, and I mean nothing will ever to the Top Gear Shuttle. I think they should give Hammond & May another go at that because that was brilliant. Their defining moment in IMHO

Got to be africa. Cos my truimph is called Oliver in honour of Richard Hammonds car!

Now, all my bikes and cars have name (it's a girl thing I've been told) and I'd just ordered the speed triple and couldn't decide what to call him. That Evening sat down to watch Top Gear and it was in Africa. When Hamster named his car, Mr Lou and I looked at each other and said 'OLIVER!' and so he was named!

Sad really, loved the winter games too!

I genuinely enjoyed all the scenes with the legendary Toyota HiLux, where they were trying to kill it so to speak.

HAHA the main thing is there all really great. I really like the one where Clarkson races two guy's on BMX's and one of the lads eats a facefull of pavement after jumping off a ramp ace!!!

I voted for the 24hour race just because they where so out of there depth there and managed to do quite well with the problems they faced.

Judging by the poll results, folk prefer the challenges to the races......
