- In an effort to see which is the quickest way to get across London, Hammond gets on his bike, James takes to the road and Clarkson goes for a ride down the river. But will they beat The Stig who's opted for good old public transport? Clip taken from series 10 episode 5.
Watch The Stig ride public transport as Clarkson, May and Hammond join him in a race across london. What will be fastest between Stig on the Underground, Jeremy in a speedboat, Hammond on a pushbike and James May in a car?

I love it how The Stig reacts to the outside environment.
Pendennis Castle "What is all this!? This isn't a car!"
Pendennis Castle i have heard he is stored in a wooden box all the time besides when they record the shows
Pedro Pereira you mean some say he's stored in a wooden box ?
All Leeds Ain't We thats right dude u got it
When I first saw you name I thought it said penis castle
Jeremy: Committing speed violations on a closed river.
James: Talking about how a car is car and car is good.
Richard: Screaming obscenities at everyone in his lane.
Stig: Investigating escalators and minding the gap between the doors and the platform.
James: every single motorist
Hammond: average cyclist
The Stig: average tourist
Jeremy: Jeremy
Didn't they say there wasn't a speed limit on the Thames?
Best comment.
@@SpeedBird6780 Yes, and since this was filmed the speed limit on the Thames has been reduced substantially. So it can never be repeated. I believe this is because of the number of upstream ferries.
@@JoseLopez-ox6en No.
Some say he doesn't use Escalators because it's a waste of time
lol
I like the picture you have sir
It did say in one of these episodes that he gets confused by stairs
True
actually he wanted to go slowly
The sad part of the story is that Ben Collins, the Stig, had broken 4 ribs in a race accident a few days before and top it off, his father had passed away just 2 days prior to shooting this scene.
+srinitaaigaura isn't the Stig Perry McCarthy
+Rush Fan oh that's what Google said
+Amin Naqvi Perry Mcarthy was the black suited stig in clarkson's first series when the stig character was introduced. the next stig was ben collins who then revealed himself a few years later and now they have a new stig who, as he wasn't involved in the 'disagreement' and he the character was owned by BBC worldwide and not clarkson had to stay on with the new Topgear with chris evans
TomSee has the new Top Gear aired in the UK yet because it will air in May on BBC America
not that I know of BBC america may be showing the last episodes of series 22 which is the last series with clarkson hammond and may. chips evans' top gear hasn't started to be edited yet as far as I know, I check quite a lot
Credit where credit's due: Clarksons way of getting to the airport was very clever. The first time I watched this I had completely forgotten about the massive body of water flowing through the city.
Adam Commenting The Thames.
TraustiGeir Yea I know of The Thames. Everybody knows of The Thames flowing through London. Isn't it what the city is known for anyways?
I think my question was more on about how you could forget it.
Adam Commenting I guess I just never considered it a mode of inner city transportation. Caught me a bit off guard.

I like how Jeremy runs the distance from the Airport Dock to the check-in and is dying on his feet whereas Hammond cycles across London at a fair pace and is fine.
Cigarettes.
@@jamespoole3531 and no exercise most likely
@@jamespoole3531didn’t they all smoke lol? I do feel like Hammond was a bit more fit than Clarkson and not just cause of cigarettes
@@ronyolo8419 It's much more difficult to run when you have sit on a boat for a while - your body is then not prepared to running, it has to turn up first. Meanwhile after a while biking, you don't get exhausted much anymore, because your body is already in "action" mode and just stays at that level.
Hammond is seriously fit. Riding 19 mph on a mountain bike is flying. A lot of serious, amateur cyclists struggle to ride over 18mph on a racing bike
Cj M gamerguy348 not racers for sure. You have to hold 22-23 on the flat to keep up with the peloton in cat 5. 28-29 for cat 1.
I mean still pretty good for a forty something who doesn't train
I know you made this comment a year ago but that isn't a mountain bike it's more of a gravel/road bike and no he is’nt fit since evidently he is’nt even in his highest gear Everytime they show him riding, also 19mph is easy as I do so regularly
~he's the fittest amongst them for sure..and see their artic episode..hammond skiing to north pole
@Matthew Baholo ok, out of them he's aged the best.
Ben Collins (The Stig) mentioned this race in his book, he basically was told by Andy Wilman (the producer) to be as unpredictable as possible.
So all of what he did here:
- Jumping the gun as the race started
- Not answering the phone, although it would have been funny if he DID answer the phone but didn't speak.
- Not using the escalator, acting as if he was confused about what it does.
- Reading the paper and having Lewis Hamilton's name clearly visible
Was NOT planned out in advance, the camera crew actually had a hard time catching up with him.
I just wonder what London PD would have done with a masked/ helmeted man doing this in London if there Hadn't been a BBC camera crew.
Richard Reavis *London Met
RastaSaiyaman I was actually thinking of Jeremy calling him. Would have been funny.
You can tell at the top of the escalator the cameraman stops abruptly because he's expecting Stig to walk down
Ben collins isnt the stig tho... its Perry McCarthy
And that, my friends, is why Clarkson invented the P45.
The end.
Captain ATG the p45 seriously needs to be a mass produced car
I miss read it to ps5
To be fair, both a bike and the P45 have the same "A LOT OF POO SHOT OUT JUST THEN!" coefficient when being passed by giant vehicles.
6:52 Hasn't ruined Top Gear! Bikes have gears, don't they?
KBABZ Some say he thinks pedals come from flowers. All we know he's called the Stig. Fast start in the Mercedes 12-speed, pedaling fast as he reaches the first...No, wouldn't work.
agun17 On the normal track, no it wouldn't! Especially after Hammond's performance in the pie-powered aluminum foil 911! But on an awesome mountain track with flamethrowers and Evil Kinevil Stig? Hell yeah!
KBABZ Some bikes don't not have gears at all
KBABZ Does anyone know what the music was between 5:00-6:30
KBABZ
Boats also have an engine
I'm genuinely impressed that Hammond managed to bike the whole way going as hard as he could the entire time. Kudos.
That's impressive for sure. He clearly has some experience riding a bike. That is NOT easy to do while maneuvering through London's infamously awful traffic.
well, the bike he rode is made to be the easiest to ride at that speed. Each bike type is designed for specific speeds. Women city bikes can barely go over 12-13 mph/20 kmh, as the users don't want more speed. Also these bikes are often heavier. Racing bikes on the other side are light and their gears are made for being fast. Which means you can easily stay at 19-22 mph all the time. A trekking bike is a middle ground - it will stay between 15-20 mph (20-35 km/h). When I bike on my trekking bike without any much pressure I easily stay at 25 km/h all the time and can go up to 35 before my gears will not allow me any more acceleration (you can then only get faster by going downhill).
5:13
"London VTS, London VTS, this is Red Cougar. Requesting permission to go through the barrier at speed."
"Roger, copied. Proceed through the barrier. Take Charlie Span inbetween the green arrows."
So awesome to be able to seriously say and hear that.
DreamPen I wonder if you have to radio for permission? It makes sense because if the barrier was rising you'd wreck your boat! Apparently they can raise it by hand if there's a power failure. I imagine that would be hard work though.
Yea it makes u feel badass!
John Airey ...unless you don’t have a radio (and you’re under 13.7m, which his speedboat certainly is).
DreamPen I’m sorry to crush you thoughts but I can tell you the novelty does wear off slightly after time...
Same with Air Traffic Control when piloting an aircraft. It feels really cool for the first week or so and then it just becomes annoying lol. Especially when they ground you for things like drones, birds or traffic.
Richard Hammond deserved that win for the effort and hard sweating work, cycling he was doing.
but cyclists are knobs
@@SteveOnlin yes but that was a hell of a ride, he did.
@@SerandibBroadcast no
@@SteveOnlin for a car person, to use a bike, is something man
@@SerandibBroadcast gang gang
I wonder how sore Hammond was the next day
RIP
Let's just say he probably did all his work standing. . .
Drog2099 19 mile an hour is my normal riding speed... then again i do race. But ye , pretty sore
Exactly. I'll still take the car. I'm comfortable in my own vehicle. I don't have to worry about public transport being late, sketchy and carry luggage all over the place. I don't have to worry about rain, as I would on the boat. And I'm certainly not gonna bike and arrive sweaty and with no luggage at all.
The car still wins.
Drog2099 lol
The stig is like the playable character in a video game but in real life
I know its been 2 years but nice comment
@@rowengarcia3852 Agreed. It indeed is a nice comment from 2 years ago.

Stig is confused by Escalators
TheBANANAMAL doesn't like automatic
@@adilshafi3067 lmao didn't think of that
TheBANANAMAL and
He is confused by everything that isn’t a car
Some say he cannot comprehend things moving slower than thirty miles an hour and that he's confused by escalators. All we know is he's called the Stig.
announcer: please mind the gap between the train and the platform
stig: what gap?
Thats the gap between him and anyone racing him
"And if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you're no longer a racing driver." - Ayrton Senna
I love how the Stig never talks. He's like a movie character with a hidden backstory but in real life
Love how u copy and pasted the comment above
Honestly, Hammond earned that victory. Maintaining that kind of speed on a bike in the middle of a city for such a distance is a hell of a job.
A motorbike would have absolutely destroyed everyone
+SquidCat YT What about a helicopter?
A maglev would have dwarfed even these.

Walking is better

@Ayden Holton nice whoosh
In the big city every transportation is better than the car.
Daniel T. A snail is faster than the car XD
Ostrich riding!
Let me introduce you to Bogotá. The only place in the world were it isn't.
Not in Most in the US.
@@MrJuancazzzz oh Bogotá, the city where cars aren't very efficent, Transmilenios are worthless, riding bicycles is dangerous and walking is suicidal. The only efficent transportation option in Bogotá is teleportation.
But hey, least it's lot like Cartagena where you have about 23 reckless motorbikes per square feet. There are so many motorbikes in Cartagena that driving on the road feels like putting your head inside a bee hive :)
“Please report any suspicious behaviour to a member of station staff”- as a guy in all white and a helmet walks through 😂
...with a BBC camera crew. It's like walking into a bank while masked up, but it's 2020 so YOU BETTER be masked.
Camera is basically carte blanche to do whatever.
The stig is so cute. He actually looked at the tiny gap when it said, "Mind the gap" and he sat so properly on the train. And his confusion with the escalator. 🤍
This music and the location in London makes it like a James Bond movie
Because it is. The opening of the World is Not Enough literally has Bond chase an assassin in a speed boat down the Thames.
In fact, the music came from Bond film Casino Royale.
@@souvikrc4499 Not at 1:18 (That's from the Hot Fuzz Suite...)
"James has cleared the traffic" Cuts to a shot of James in traffic.
The definition of traffic in london is different
As long it is moving a bit, it is technically clear of traffic. Better than standstill.
Man, the showdown between Clarkson and Hammond was intense. From the shots of the boat speeding through, to Hammonds frequent yells, and of course the music… damn.
You gave James the Car and the Stig the subway? Really?
I question myself the same
Good question
They were being unbiased in this challenge.
The Stig (Ben Carson) had a back injury at that time. It would have hurt him a lot if he drove.
Akmal Ibrahim he was sitting on the last train
I don't get why most people are questioning why the Stig is there with them. If anything, they should be glad that they have seen and been in the presence of the Stig.
I like the Stig, he's badass. I also like how he reacts to the outside world, he's kinda like an alien that just came to visit and found himself getting roped into a show with three crazed British men doing unusual things to cars
Some say he left after Clarkson was sacked
Jeremy after running from his boat to the airport: *Out of breath*
Hammond after biking across London: *Laughs in victory*
I wish the Stig was in grand tour :(
same
Same
-Ben Collins (former stig) is in GT- oh shit I was wrong
Coffee Dust well Abbie is there lol
AlexShrimpGame ! yeah but that’s not the stig
"Permission to cross the Barrier at speed" How cool is that.
I love that moment 6:42 when finds out that Hammond arrived already and someone behind the camera giggles😂
If you were a tourist on that cloudy day in one of those boats, you had a view of the bridges, the Houses of Parliament, the London eye, the tower and Jeremy Clarkson in a red speedboat. You really got to see all of England in one spot.
Hahaha I love at 2:31 where the guy walks to the escalator behind stig and he's just like 'oh shite'
2:26 ?
To everyone complaining about reuploads, these are of higher quality and have the outro with the Stig.

thank you friend :)
Thanks
I thought it was Globus - Preliator
Globus is owned by Immediate Music. Preliator is the version of the music that has the lead female vocals in it. Lacrimosa doesn't have the female lead vocals.
Ohhh right. Thanks for clarifying that
The look on Clarkson's face when he heard Hammond beat him, you could see all the stages of grief in that brief moment.
Honestly congrats to the production team those last few minutes with the music and all of the shots it was truly epic. Sadly we wont ever see this top gear again but wow I'm glad we had it for the time it lasted

The river is actually a great way to travel London. I was once in London with a group of students, and public transport went on strike. i figured out we could also take the ferry to our destination of the day, Canary Wharf. It was so good: relaxed, seeing London from the water, and quite fast. A great way to travel in London!
when Jeremy is in mental pain is the best episodes. He's great but it's so satisfying to see him not happy at the end of a challenge.
Honestly, some of these races were brilliant and I do miss them making more of them.
I love how a car show helped to prove that cars are not good for cities. I love these guys
Interesting they didn't say how much gap there was between the boat and bike.
Hammond seemed quite well rested.
@@petertaylor4980 He had certainly had time to freshen up and I didn't see any helmet marks. They can last quite a while.
At 1:02 they're implying the boat has just above twice as far to go. That must be bullshit, though, because he seems to average 50+ mph (probably closer to 60) after that. I seriously doubt Hammond did 30 mph.
@@ericforsyth He stayed around 19mph wheras Clarkson was limited to 8mph until he reached that bridge where the river became unrestricted
5:08 me driving to work/ an appointment
As a cycles this is very likely me every time
Moral of this story, Public transportation and bicycles are the 2 best ways of transport inside a big city (boats are too limited and not every city has rivers)
I love how the check in guy is SO SMUG about Richard winning :D
Conclusions: If you're very wealthy and live next to the river, use the speedboat.
If you are a normal person who just wants to get there, use the train.
If you are a normal person who wants to see London on the way there, use the bike.
If you are a person who likes sitting in and causing traffic as well as pollution, use the car.

This is one of the best bits of TV produced in British history, ever.

This was surprisingly epic
This is pure gold when Hammond Clarkson and may doing top gear all three did a stearling job and a fab job to all who worked on this show the stig made my day thanks for the great years every one 🙏
The use of Tipsy "Space Golf" during the Stig parts caught me off guard...Top Gear has such good music choice...
This was arguably the most fun race in all of Top Gear.
huge respectto cameraman for having to walk at 70mph on water just to record clarkson's boat

But Stig might terrorize London by driving ludicrously fast due to his ignorance to the concept of speed limit.
Stig went the slow way, use the Jubilee Line to Canning Town and change there, going via Bank is tediously slow.
When that music at the end starts playing it becomes probably the most tense thing I've ever watched
This was a great race. I wanna see the Stig participate more often in these races!

My favourite episode of Top Gear
I love how the Stig taking public transportation looks like a lost child. 😂
2:05 “Some say he walks like a robot and he’s afraid of escalators....”
This is still an amazing bit of television pitting all 4 of them to cross london in a race, taking different routes and different methods of transport. I honestly don't know of any other time a race like this has quite been done before or since.
Partly because of the manpower to film 4 people at once.
"Please mind the gap between the train and the platform"
*STIG looks down at gap*
Stig's thought: “SHIT"
1:35 you've got to be crazy
What the hell is up with the check-in guy's head at 6:32? He's like a collectible in Fallout.
I just realized, a description of this episode was on my english book in the 1st-2nd year of highschool (I can't quite remember which one). Back then I didn't know these guys, but after seeing this video I realized it was them. Awesome. I'm pretty sure there was also a listening but sadly I never did that exercise.
Part of why _Top Gear_ was always so good, was the film editing and supporting music.
4:18
Stig: this the first i am enjoyed the challenge, without throttle and brake
How cool would it be if you could actually do your daily commute along a river in a speed boat!!!
But just imo, knowing a bit about London, using public transportation perhaps mixed with a bike seems like the best all rounder.
you can , there's even a uber boat with room for bike's and you can use the Oyster card (which is for Tube,Trains and Bus). if you live along the river, say to the east and need to commute into central London it's a viable strategy
One of my favourite races they have done
Oh man, I loved this race!
