Özet
 Reaching a peak in the 1990s thanks to presenter Jeremy Clarkson, the original series then faced the axe in 2001 - but Clarkson and producer Andy Wilman successfully pitched a new format to BBC bosses and Top Gear returned to become the irreverent, funny and often controversial show we now know and love. The addition of co-presenters Richard Hammond and James May completed the Top Gear dream team and ratings soared as viewers tuned in to see the latest Star in a Reasonably Priced Car, arguments over the Cool Wall and Power Laps by the mysterious Stig. Top Gear has long attracted criticism for its dangerous stunts and the presenters' controversial opinions, but thankfully 'the Hamster' made a full recovery and Top Gear has continued to pull in massive audiences across the world. This is the full story of the unstoppable rise of Clarkson, Hammond, May and The Stig - and how they have transformed an ordinary programme about cars into one of the most famous and best-loved TV programmes of the 21st century.©2011 Martin Roach (P)2011 Bolinda Publishing Engineering Entertainment & Performing Arts Film & TV History & Criticism Eğlence Şöhret Esprili Komik

one of the many books and biographies in the top gear franchise, a must read.

Vital Read!

On the whole I really quite enjoyed this book. It wasn't the most in-depth, but it gave a good potted history of Top Gear and I learned quite a bit about the programme's development.



Some of the chapters consist of the author explaining what happened in certain episodes in much the same way an excited child would tell you about their favourite programme. As I'm sure everyone who reads / listens to this book will be a Top Gear viewer, I felt the detailed explanation of the episodes wasn't really necessary!



Saying that, the author delivers the book with good humour and made me smile a lot with the behind the scenes stories.



The only real bad point about this audiobook is that the narrator managed to mispronounce several names. I found a quick shout at the speakers with the correct pronunciation satisfied me!

A good light listen
