Top Gear Series 8, Episode 1 was broadcast on May 7^th 2006. As well as Jeremy, The Hamster and Captain Slow there were a host of guests:

• Jimmy Carr
• Alan Davies
• Trevor Eve
• Les Ferdinand
• Justin Hawkins
• Rick Wakeman
• The Stig

Trying to hang on to his previous “fastest lap” record Jimmy pretty much wrecks this car and finishes his lap facing the wrong way. The only clip I could find, below, is pretty poor quality – but still amusing.

It would appear that it may still be available to view on Apple TV.

This article from Top Gear Box describes the challenges and all the petrol head stuff…for anyone that likes that kind of thing.
