- 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:34,790
- Now, George Clooney.
- He directed it as well, didn't he?
- 702
- 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:39,230
- George directed it, he stars in it,
- he produced it and he co-wrote it.
- 703
- 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,950
- I've been wondering, looking at
- what you're doing at the moment,
- 704
- 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,950
- is how on earth
- you are fitting it in,
- 705
- 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,830
- because you're also working on W1A.
- 706
- 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,150
- Yes, W1A is a spin-off of
- a show I did called Twenty Twelve.
- 707
- 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,510
- Which was fabulous. Thank you
- very much. I properly loved that.
- 708
- 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,030
- It was a mockumentary about
- trying to organise the Olympics.
- 709
- 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,270
- Obviously, my character made such a
- success of organising the Olympics,
- 710
- 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,190
- I'm the go-to man
- to sort out corporate issues.
- 711
- 00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:06,990
- So what better place than
- to go into the BBC?
- 712
- 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,750
- When I heard that
- this was happening,
- 713
- 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,190
- and I can see all the location signs
- around the BBC buildings
- 714
- 00:41:12,240 --> 00:41:14,350
- where you are filming it,
- I was thinking,
- 715
- 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,670
- how do you make fiction
- about BBC management
- 716
- 00:41:17,720 --> 00:41:20,160
- funnier than what actually happens?
- 717
- 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,310
- Broadcasting House, the new big
- building on Regent Street,
- 718
- 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,870
- Portland Place,
- you're not allowed in there
- 719
- 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,870
- even if you're BBC staff unless
- you've been on a half-hour
- 720
- 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,470
- health and safety course on
- how to operate the building.
- 721
- 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,910
- I started the course.
- 722
- 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,630
- A lady with an eight-page document
- arrived to talk me through it.
- 723
- 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:43,790
- Page one was a picture of
- a fire alarm, red fire alarm box.
- 724
- 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,590
- It said, "This is a fire alarm."
- 725
- 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:50,590
- Page two, a graphic of a green sign
- with a man running like this
- 726
- 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,390
- with the word "exit".
- "That's an emergency exit."
- 727
- 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,430
- At that point, I was taken off
- to do some filming.
- 728
- 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,790
- I still haven't...
- You haven't completed the course?
- 729
- 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,910
- I still haven't. I still have to be
- escorted around Broadcasting House
- 730
- 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,310
- in case I'm confused
- by a light fitting!
- 731
- 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,830
- Or something of that nature.
- It is stupid.
- 732
- 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,350
- I'm longing to see something
- that satirises it,
- 733
- 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,550
- but again, how are you doing it?
- You must be the world's busiest man.
- 734
- 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,470
- Presumably you drove very quickly
- around the lap,
- 735
- 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,190
- so you could get home more quickly?
- 736
- 00:42:19,240 --> 00:42:21,430
- No, I'm not a speed merchant.
- 737
- 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,870
- At the beginning,
- when The Stig took me around,
- 738
- 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,470
- I was really terrified,
- being in the passenger seat,
- 739
- 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,710
- and I thought,
- "I'll never be able to do this."
- 740
- 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,390
- By the end,
- as your guys will tell you,
- 741
- 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,750
- I refused to get out, I wanted
- to go again and again.
- 742
- 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,670
- Who here would like to see the lap?
- 743
- 00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:36,590
- AUDIENCE: Yes!
- 744
- 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,520
- Play the tape, let's have a look.
- 745
- 00:42:41,240 --> 00:42:43,830
- The car, fresh after its long rest.
- 746
- 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,160
- Come on, son!
- 747
- 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,750
- Look at the lines, streaming down.
- 748
- 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,830
- That is wet, really is pouring down,
- and that's odd for England(!)
- 749
- 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,430
- If you're watching abroad,
- it's never normally like that here.
- 750
- 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,470
- Where's the white line? Oh, there.
- 751
- 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:00,910
- LAUGHTER
- 752
- 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,230
- You may laugh, but it is
- quite tricky to see the line
- 753
- 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,590
- when the track is soaking wet.
- 754
- 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,080
- It's really steamy.
- 755
- 00:43:10,240 --> 00:43:11,280
- Hmm?
- 756
- 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,310
- You need to get that sort of thing
- sorted out before you set off.
- 757
- 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,550
- Even though the lines are invisible
- from behind the wheel,
- 758
- 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,470
- you've done a pretty good job.
- That's not bad.
- 759
- 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,920
- Woohoo! Perfectly judged.
- 760
- 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,800
- Must remember to get some milk.
- 761
- 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,830
- Worse than Kimi Raikkonen
- for not paying attention,
- 762
- 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,000
- but no worries through there at all.
- 763
- 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,910
- Tyres, speedy, moving them
- about nicely.
- 764
- 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:44,790
- Oh, that is quick!
- 765
- 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,030
- On the wrong side of the road there,
- but never mind.
- 766
- 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,230
- It's nicely done,
- and you haven't gone off
- on the second to last corner.
- 767
- 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,670
- Gambon, a bit of understeer.
- That car grips well.
- 768
- 00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:55,390
- And there we are. Across the line!
- 769
- 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,880
- APPLAUSE
- 770
- 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:03,600
- Now, ha-ha!
- 771
- 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,510
- Just realised that's the first ever
- wet lap we've had in that car.
- 772
- 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,230
- Nobody else has driven around
- in the rain.
- 773
- 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,990
- Bearing that in mind,
- where do you think you've come?
- 774
- 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:24,830
- Well, I suspect...between
- Ron Howard and Steven Tyler,
- 775
- 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,350
- bearing in mind it's wet.
- 776
- 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:30,870
- Somewhere between 1.50 and 1.51
- is what you think you've done.
- 777
- 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,440
- Well, you did it in...
- 778
- 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,550
- 1.50.1.
- 779
- 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:49,110
- Which means you're the first guest
- ever to guess correctly...
- 780
- 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,840
- Wait, wait, wait!
- 781
- 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,510
- You just put Steven Tyler...
- I'll cross it out, wrong.
- 782
- 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,920
- A very professional show.
- There, look, correct!
- 783
- 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,350
- To be brutally honest with you,
- The Stig did say
- 784
- 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:06,870
- that you have a natural talent
- 785
- 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,790
- and if it had been dry you would
- have been very close to the top.
- 786
- 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,030
- Well, that's an accolade then. It is.
- 787
- 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,790
- I'll go away happy, thank you.
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- thank you so much, Hugh Bonneville!
- 788
- 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:18,110
- Thank you.
- 789
- 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:19,800
- CHEERING
- 790
- 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,950
- Right, tonight the boys and girls
- who produce Top Gear
- 791
- 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,110
- are on a mission to prove that
- the hot hatchbacks of our era
- 792
- 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,950
- were rubbish. Yeah.
- Things are not going well for me,
- 793
- 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,270
- cos I've slightly damaged
- the engine... Ruined.
- 794
- 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:37,350
- LAUGHTER
- 795
- 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,590
- Slightly damaged. Whatever... Damaged
- the engine in my Nova and it's
- 796
- 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,390
- on the back of a tow truck.
- But despite this we had been told
- 797
- 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,150
- to report to somewhere
- we couldn't pronounce...
- 798
- 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:47,560
- in Wales.
- 799
- 00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:55,240
- Having crossed the Severn Estuary
- we soon arrived at the location.
- 800
- 00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:01,150
- HE STRUGGLES TO PRONOUNCE:
- Trefniadaeth Seilwaith Amddiffyn
- 801
- 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,910
- Man Hyfforddi Caerwent.
- 802
- 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,390
- And here on this huge, abandoned
- army base crisscrossed
- 803
- 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:12,430
- with more than 30 miles
- of deserted roads,
- 804
- 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,870
- we received the details
- of our challenge.
- 805
- 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,550
- Oh, hello. Why is it an envelope
- and not a text this time?
- 806
- 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,310
- That's a good point.
- We're in Wales - no signal.
- 807
- 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,150
- Ahh! Yeah!
- We're back to the old ways.
- 808
- 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,710
- Come on then, what is it?
- 809
- 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,430
- "Because the drivers of '80s
- hatchbacks were irresponsible
- 810
- 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,950
- "and stupid they were often chased
- by the 50."
- 811
- 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:36,110
- Er, James, it means the 5-0,
- as in Hawaii 5-0, it's the police.
- 812
- 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,070
- Yeah, whatever.
- Well, anyway. The 50!
- 813
- 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,550
- Anyway...
- "You will now go head-to-head with
- 814
- 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,710
- "the Top Gear Police Department.
- Each of you will take it in turns
- 815
- 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,550
- "to drive your own car
- while the other two will use
- 816
- 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,270
- "a selection of police vehicles
- to try and stop you."
- 817
- 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,630
- That sounds quite good.
- It does sound good.
- 818
- 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,910
- Tell you what, Hammond,
- you go first.
- 819
- 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,550
- Erm, good, yes.
- 820
- 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,320
- I might need a minute.
- 821
- 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,150
- While Hammond mended his car,
- 822
- 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:05,630
- James and I broke out
- the TGPD pursuit vehicles
- 823
- 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,040
- and slipped into
- our police uniforms.
- 824
- 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,390
- OK, Hammond, are you ready?
- 825
- 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:20,190
- Yes, I am. This is going to be good.
- In 3, 2, 1...
- 826
- 00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:22,030
- start the clock.

- Ha-ha!
- 834
- 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,110
- Excuse me, sir, my moustache
- would like a word with you,
- 835
- 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,110
- if you'd like to step out of the
- vehicle. You're nicked, sunshine.
- 836
- 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,390
- What did I do? How long?
- Eight seconds.
- 837
- 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,030
- Do you know, another fault...
- 838
- 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,470
- Did it? Very similar. Did it?
- 839
- 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:58,110
- It manifested itself similarly to
- the last one that one I repaired.
- 840
- 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:02,190
- Tell that to the judge...
- Yes...sunshine. Right.
- 841
- 00:48:02,240 --> 00:48:04,070
- Jeremy then put on the yobbo outfit
- 842
- 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,990
- and lined up his velvet Golf
- on the start line.

- 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,440
- He's getting away, constable!
- 848
- 00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:31,360
- Yes. Live with this...!
- 849
- 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,310
- You see, what we're learning
- straight away is that
- 850
- 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:41,840
- a modern police Astra is no match
- for a 1980s hot hatchback.

- 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,230
- And the reason is, it's because
- they are driving in high-energy
- 856
- 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,640
- difficult situations while under
- the influence of the moustache.
- 857
- 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,550
- Got a moustache, got a moustache,
- got a moustache.
- 858
- 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,160
- TYRES SQUEAL
- 859
- 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,560
- Oh, he's lost it!
- 860
- 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:23,360
- Totally distracted
- by his face decoration.
- 861
- 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:29,430
- MUSIC: "Miami Vice Theme"
- by Jan Hammer
- 862
- 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,910
- With the Astras
- unable to close the gap...
- 863
- 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,400
- Come on!
- 864
- 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,160
- ..the chase went on...
- 865
- 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:39,270
- ..and on...
- 866
- 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:40,960
- and on...
- 867
- 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,230
- MUSIC CONTINUES
- 868
- 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:52,510
- The next morning, the weather
- had become extremely Welsh.
- 869
- 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,840
- But still, the Golf was uncaught.
- 870
- 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:57,830
- This isn't working, sir.
- 871
- 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,270
- No, I agree, I think
- we're going to have to break out
- 872
- 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,960
- the Top Gear Police Department
- magnetron of justice.
- 873
- 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,160
- If anything could stop
- the miscreant, it was this.
- 874
- 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:14,400
- A giant crane with a seven-kilowatt
- magnet suspended from its arm.
- 875
- 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:20,920
- A machine that could render
- any vehicle immobile in moments.
- 876
- 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,160
- Right, let's go get him.
- 877
- 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,720
- Soon, the trap was set.
- 878
- 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:35,830
- Mmm, what's this...?
- 879
- 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,190
- Arming magnet.
- 880
- 00:50:38,240 --> 00:50:40,800
- MAGNET FIZZING
- 881
- 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:51,520
- Here he comes...
- 882
- 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,120
- RICHARD CHUCKLES
- 883
- 00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:06,430
- Blithering idiots. Do they not
- realise you can't use a magnet
- 884
- 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,160
- to pick up velvet?
- 885
- 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:11,990
- There was only one thing for it -
- 886
- 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:15,960
- unleash the TGPD
- remote-controlled car of death.
- 887
- 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,960
- Target vehicle identified
- and located.
- 888
- 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,440
- Where the hell are they?
- 889
- 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:29,070
- How can this be a police chase when
- they aren't chasing me any more?
- 890
- 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:30,790
- Target acquired...
- 891
- 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,960
- BEEPING
- 892
- 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:39,550
- Sir, you might want to
- put your fingers in your ears.
- 893
- 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,710
- I don't know where those two are
- or what they're plotting
- 894
- 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,990
- but it won't work.
- 895
- 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,310
- BEEPING
- 896
- 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,310
- This car is simply...
- 897
- 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:51,400
- invincib...
- 898
- 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,110
- Bigger than I was expecting,
- constable.
- 899
- 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:08,680
- Yes, sir, it was, sir.
- 900
- 00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:18,030
- So, it turns out that velvet
- is impervious to magnets,
- 901
- 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,760
- but it IS pervious to dynamite.
- 902
- 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,950
- Nevertheless, I felt confident
- that James would not be able
- 903
- 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:31,150
- to beat my evasion time
- of 14 hours and 22 minutes.
- 904
- 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:34,710
- In...3, 2, 1...
- 905
- 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,320
- start the clock.
- 906
- 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:39,550
- SIRENS WAIL
- 907
- 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,990
- However, as he set off it
- became clear he'd come up
- 908
- 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:44,640
- with an unusual plan...
- 909
- 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:47,880
- What is he doing?
- 910
- 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:54,390
- Now, the thing is, viewers, whenever
- you watch Police Camera Action
- 911
- 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,190
- or see a real police chase, the
- person trying to get away is always
- 912
- 00:52:57,240 --> 00:52:59,790
- going ludicrously fast,
- but, actually, what's the point?
- 913
- 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,670
- You'd just panic
- and have an accident
- 914
- 00:53:02,720 --> 00:53:04,510
- and that's the end of that,
- 915
- 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,830
- but if you just do normal speed,
- 916
- 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,000
- they still can't get you
- out of the car, can they?
- 917
- 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,110
- Keen to prove him wrong,
- 918
- 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,510
- I initiated the TGPD
- anti-terrorism move.
- 919
- 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,120
- Here we go.
- 920
- 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,640
- Pushing, pushing.
- 921
- 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:26,640
- Got him.
- 922
- 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,400
- He's just driven off!
- 923
- 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:39,710
- 'As the hours crawled by,
- we tried many things.'
- 924
- 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:41,680
- Stop him, Constable!
- 925
- 00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:43,750
- How's that going to help?
- 926
- 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,270
- I've fallen off the bonnet!
- 927
- 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,990
- What are you going to do
- if the doors are locked?
- 928
- 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:49,880
- You can't pull a man
- out of a car.
- 929
- 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:55,560
- This is an arrest.
- 930
- 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:02,830
- 'Happily, though, after many hours of
- tedious pursuit...'
- 931
- 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:06,190
- Weaving, weaving...
- 932
- 00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:11,950
- '..James finally made a mistake.'
- Oh, crikey, this is a dead end.
- 933
- 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,030
- Yes, his sense of direction
- has let him down. A-ha!
- 934
- 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:17,910
- In we go, yes.
- 935
- 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,150
- LOUD BANG
- Bollocks!
- 936
- 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,560
- We've got him! We finally have him.
- 937
- 00:54:23,720 --> 00:54:26,360
- We don't have him,
- he's closed my door.
- 938
- 00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:31,910
- He's done it again.
- 939
- 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:36,190
- And now look.
- I've damaged a police car.
- 940
- 00:54:36,240 --> 00:54:40,910
- 'This meant I was now delayed
- with police paperwork.'
- 941
- 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:46,110
- "I were in pursuit of a pleb...
- 942
- 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,750
- "IC1, male.
- 943
- 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:56,320
- "He did crash into me at speed."
- 944
- 00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:59,760
- I'm going to get that bastard!
- 945
- 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:10,110
- While Jeremy had been
- finessing his statement, I decided
- 946
- 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:16,750
- it was time to skewer May
- with the TGPD prongs of doom.
- 947
- 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:18,760
- SIREN BLARES
- 948
- 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:27,270
- It's a heavy, high-mobility
- engineer excavator,
- 949
- 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,920
- built by JCB for the military.
- 950
- 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:38,350
- It weighs 13.5 tonnes, but it's got
- a 6.7 litre straight-six turbo-diesel
- 951
- 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,680
- and it can do 63mph.
- 952
- 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,150
- James May, you've had it!
- 953
- 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:47,160
- Wherever you are.
- 954
- 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:55,040
- 'James had vanished. But we had
- just the thing to find him again.'
- 955
- 00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:03,560
- The time has come, I think,
- to deploy the Top Gear Police
- Department drone of intrusiveness.
- 956
- 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:13,270
- 'With its military-spec nose-mounted
- reconnaissance camera, it would
- track down May in a heartbeat.'
- 957
- 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:14,880
- Here we go.
- 958
- 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,680
- The drone of intrusiveness
- has crashed.
- 959
- 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:29,280
- 'Eventually I got the drone airborne
- and begun the hunt for OJ May.'
- 960
- 00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:40,270
- Wait a minute.
- 961
- 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,080
- You sneaky little...
- 962
- 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:48,030
- James was hiding
- in an abandoned garage bay,
- 963
- 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:50,750
- but if he thought he was safe there,
- 964
- 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:53,120
- he had another think coming.
- 965
- 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,470
- Welcome, everyone,
- to the Top Gear Police Department
- 966
- 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,800
- eaty thing of devastation.
- 967
- 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,190
- This was designed primarily
- for mine clearance, but in the TGPD,
- 968
- 00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:14,040
- we use it in
- a rather different way.
- 969
- 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,350
- There is Constable Hammond.
- 970
- 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:24,840
- The enemy, behind that wall,
- no idea what is coming.
- 971
- 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:31,470
- Engaging flails!
- 972
- 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,360
- Flails engaged!
- 973
- 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:40,840
- I'm not sure he should be
- operating that thing.
- 974
- 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,080
- DRILLING
- 975
- 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,080
- Yes, look at that!
- 976
- 00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:16,230
- He's not where...
- 977
- 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,880
- What he isn't, sir, is there.
- 978
- 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,470
- Situation update:
- in three minutes' time,
- 979
- 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:29,320
- I will have beaten Jeremy's record
- on the run at a reasonable speed.
- 980
- 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,600
- But the TGPD toy box
- wasn't empty yet.
- 981
- 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:40,840
- Whoa! Ha-ha-ha!
- 982
- 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:49,710
- Hello, it looks like
- Constable Hammond
- 983
- 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,350
- has got the hang of tank driving.
- 984
- 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:55,480
- The first thing you need to know is,
- I have an erection!
- 985
- 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,470
- Coming at you, James May!
- 986
- 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:04,950
- Oh, no, the Top Gear Police
- Department tank of righteousness
- is right on my tail.
- 987
- 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,950
- What am I going to do?
- 988
- 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,160
- I know.
- 989
- 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,270
- Easy.
- 990
- 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:16,840
- Right!
- 991
- 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:21,640
- Oh, hang on a minute.
- 992
- 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,190
- He's stopped, he's given up!
- 993
- 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:27,760
- LOUD EXPLOSION
- 994
- 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:50,480
- And on that bombshell...
- back to the studio.
- 995
- 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,760
- APPLAUSE
- 996
- 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:04,350
- It's interesting, an important
- question was raised in that film.
- 997
- 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,590
- Because if you have a moustache,
- how do you concentrate
- 998
- 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,110
- on doing anything other than
- having a moustache?
- 999
- 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:14,790
- I know, I felt like I was the
- life-support machine for a moustache.
- 1000
- 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:18,590
- If you're a bomb disposal man,
- and you have to defuse a bomb,
- 1001
- 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:21,190
- you are thinking,
- "I have a moustache."
- 1002
- 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:26,470
- How did Nigel Mansell win a Formula
- One world championship? I know!
- 1003
- 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,470
- You don't have a moustache, sir,
- 1004
- 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,270
- but let me show you
- what it's like to have one.
- 1005
- 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:35,870
- It's like that. What do you do
- for a living? Transport manager.
- 1006
- 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,750
- You couldn't be a transport manager
- if I was doing that to you.
- 1007
- 01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:40,400
- LAUGHTER
- 1008
- 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,750
- Anyway, we must get on
- because I have received a text -
- 1009
- 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:51,230
- the results of
- the car evasion challenge.
- 1010
- 01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:55,430
- Jeremy Clarkson, 14 hours
- 22 minutes. Richard Hammock...
- 1011
- 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:57,190
- Autocorrect again?
- 1012
- 01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:59,830
- Yes. Eight seconds. Thank you.
- 1013
- 01:00:59,880 --> 01:01:03,590
- James May, 14 hours, 21 minutes.
- 1014
- 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,070
- Oh, blast! There you are.
- 1015
- 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:08,870
- Hang on, so the Fiesta
- won the supermarket sweep,
- 1016
- 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:10,950
- the Golf won the police chase
- 1017
- 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,070
- and the Nova won the hill climb.
- 1018
- 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,790
- That means that each of the cars
- is a winner. Precisely.
- 1019
- 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,710
- Which means that the older
- hot hatchback
- 1020
- 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,870
- is better than the modern one.
- 1021
- 01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:26,630
- Which means we were right, and on
- that bombshell, it's time to end.
- 1022
- 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,430
- Thank you very much for watching.
- Good night!
- 1023
- 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,120
- APPLAUSE
