CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
2
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,520
Hello, welcome to Top Gear.
3
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,160
Yes, we're still out on the runway
with our Covid-compliant,
4
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:38,760
socially distanced
classic driving show.
5
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,640
I've got to tell you, there's
a white Transit van at the back
6
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,720
there with the windows steamed up...
he's started early!
7
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,160
But as long as he's in the same
bubble, why not? Go for it.
8
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:48,720
Have a bit of fun.
9
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:49,960
Knock yourself out.
10
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,520
Talking of steamed up,
Chris Harris, look at this,
11
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,960
no wonder you're excited,
this is a car spotter's paradise.
12
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,600
This is my happy place.
Look at the tackle on offer here.
13
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,920
XTS Convertible. Fantastic.
14
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,280
Look at this here...
15
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,440
a Rosso Dino 308.
16
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,680
- BMW Z1...
- Chris, we don't have time for this.
17
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,200
The 550's got a burgundy interior!
18
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,600
Quiet, because we've got
a packed show, folks.
19
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,040
Later on we're going to be
taking on a massive wall of death.
20
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,400
What were we even thinking?
21
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,320
Never mind that, cos also tonight,
there's a massive crash.
22
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:22,040
The best news is... it's not me!
23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,280
Get in! Get it!
CHEERING
24
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,600
We'll move on, because we need to
talk about cars that do 200mph.
25
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,720
- Isn't that right, Christopher?
- That's right, Patrick.
26
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,360
See, it wasn't so long ago
that 200mph in a road car seemed
27
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,800
unreachable,
beyond the limits of physics.
28
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,600
But then 30 years ago, a bunch
of supercars rocked up that
29
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,920
not only smashed passed 200,
but looked awesome doing it.
30
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,680
So to celebrate the coolest
supercar era of them all,
31
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,360
the producers told us to
pick our favourite 200mph pioneer
32
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,660
and head to the glorious north.
33
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,960
If you're talking 200mph
pioneers, frankly,
34
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,840
there's only one choice.
35
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,800
The original, the greatest,
36
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,080
I give you the Ferrari F40.
37
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,960
Oh, I haven't driven one of these
for a while.
38
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,840
Introduced in 1987,
39
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,520
the F40 was the final car to be
overseen by the big man himself...
40
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,760
Enzo Ferrari...
41
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,680
who was, above all else,
a man of ambition.
42
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,800
You see, the race to 200mph
for a road-legal car in the '80s
43
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,200
was a bit like
the space race in the '60s...
44
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,320
massive budgets, genius engineers,
45
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,160
all to be the first to make that claim.
46
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,640
And the F40 was the first
road car to get there.
47
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:13,320
This is the Apollo 11 of supercars.
48
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,880
This is the giant leap for car-kind.
49
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:26,480
But the real genius behind the F40
50
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,080
is that in building his rocket ship,
51
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,120
Enzo kept things...
52
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,080
beautifully simple.
53
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,840
Ferrari could have
gone down a technology route,
54
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,560
but instead it just made a
very light, tubular steel chassis,
55
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,400
added some Kevlar bodywork
56
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,880
and then added a huge amount of power...
57
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,960
478hp, from a twin turbo-charged V8.
58
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:57,960
It's just a massive go-kart.
59
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,560
It's light, it's immediate,
60
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,000
there's no power assistance
to anything.
61
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,800
The pedals take a massive push,
62
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,400
the steering takes a heave,
63
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,760
the gear shift, well, you have
to nudge it from your shoulder.
64
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,080
It's just brutal, but sublime!
65
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,920
This isn't just
the greatest 200mph car,
66
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,000
this is the greatest road car ever.
67
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,240
For me, there's no debate.
68
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,360
No debate. It's the greatest.
69
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,760
It's a good effort, but wrong.
70
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,560
If you want THE classic
200mph supercar,
71
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,040
everyone knows you've
got to buy British,
72
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,680
or at least borrow British.
73
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,480
ENGINE REVS
74
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,600
I give you the Jaguar XJ220.
75
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,920
Oh, my word!
76
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,080
It doesn't get much better than this.
77
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,600
The mightiest road-going Jag ever made
78
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,040
first landed as a concept in 1988.
79
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,480
And it was spectacular.
80
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,960
I remember seeing this car
for the first time as a kid,
81
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,680
I'd have been, like,
11, 12 years of age.
82
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,920
It just looked like something
I'd never seen before.
83
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,360
And now here I am driving one.
84
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,480
The first thing you need to
know about the 220,
85
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,760
though, is that to a lot of people
it's considered a bit of a failure.
86
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,200
That's because Jaguar,
they promised a V12,
87
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,000
they promised scissor doors,
they promised four-wheel drive.
88
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,400
But when they came to make it,
they discovered that all that was,
89
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,280
well, a bit complicated,
90
00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:11,760
and a bit expensive.
91
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,920
So it ended up two-wheel drive,
normal doors,
92
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,480
and the engine from a V6 Metro.
93
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,400
But disappointing
though that may sound,
94
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:32,320
the XJ220 still had
a top speed of 217 mph.
95
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,360
Compared to the F40,
it was in another league.
96
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:48,040
I think that is genius. I think that
is the best of British ingenuity.
97
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,920
"We'll make do with what we've got.
Stick it in there."
98
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,680
It still goes 217 mph...
that is not a failure.
99
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,760
And besides, just have a look at it.
100
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,040
Just look at it!
101
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,560
Don't be fooled by that face, though...
102
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,440
underneath it's a wild animal.
103
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,040
Oh!
104
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,840
The strangest thing about
this car is you're driving it,
105
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,920
and nothing's happening. Nothing.
106
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,760
And then all at once,
the turbos kick in.
107
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,160
It's like a Tarantino movie...
everything just happens!
108
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,520
Oh, my word! I'm tense. I'm tense.
109
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,640
What is the...?
110
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:42,960
ON RADIO: Good morning, Chris.
111
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,960
What are you in, Fred? XJ220?
112
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,720
Congratulations,
that is you in car form...
113
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,080
big, British, not as fast as claimed.
114
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,040
Chris, it did 217mph, this car.
115
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,040
You can't have a go at it.
116
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,040
And they called it the XJ220,
and it only did 217?
117
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,480
They called the Ferrari
the 812 Superfast,
118
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,360
it doesn't go 812mph.
119
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,720
But it's superfast.
120
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,760
Buongiorno!
121
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,320
ON RADIO: Dearie me, Fred.
Dearie me.
122
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,400
How's about that, boys?
123
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,200
Where's your sense of patriotism?
124
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,480
HE CHUCKLES
125
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,960
Ignore those two squares.
126
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,920
I like my 200mph supercars
a bit more unhinged.
127
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,640
Man, this car!
128
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,920
Ladies and gentlemen,
I give you the Lamborghini Diablo.
129
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,040
I mean, supercars are supposed to be
a little bit mad, aren't they?
130
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,280
They're supposed to be bonkers.
131
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,160
And the Diablo is definitely bonkers.
132
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,600
I mean, look at it,
the seat belts go the wrong way,
133
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,040
the dash looks like it's off a lorry.
134
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,680
The stalks are from a Morris Marina.
135
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:07,720
It's bonkers, but what it does have
is that great big, stonking, lovely
136
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,720
V12 right behind you
137
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,520
that will get you to
70mph in first gear.
138
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,200
First gear.
139
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,800
Listen to her!
ENGINE ROARS
140
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,160
Come on!
141
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,560
Work your way up the gearbox,
142
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:33,880
and the 485hp Diablo
would top out at 202mph.
143
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,920
Ohh!
144
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,280
It scares me, this car as well.
I like that.
145
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,880
There's no power steering,
no traction control, nothing.
146
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,080
Nothing that's in a modern car
that makes you feel comfortable.
147
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,720
It's just pure driving ability.
I love it.
148
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,400
Oh!
149
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,600
Now, we'd been told to head to
a nearby airfield for the chance
150
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,800
to put our cars through their paces.
151
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,960
However, first, that did
of course mean...
152
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,180
reaching it.
153
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,560
Woohoo!
154
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,600
Oh-ho!
155
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,200
Hoo-hoo!
156
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,040
Whoa!
CAR SKIDS
157
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,880
BANG
158
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:41,480
So, while McGuinness had made
an unscheduled stop,
159
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:47,040
we arrived at the airfield
where all we could do was wait.
160
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,560
Do you know, on an F40 the paint
is so thin
161
00:10:52,560 --> 00:10:56,000
that you can see the Kevlar
weave through it? It's amazing.
162
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,680
- Yeah?
- All the way through here
163
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,360
you can just see the weave
of the Kevlar.
164
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,800
In fact, one of the ways to spot...
APPROACHING LORRY
165
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:31,520
Oh, my God.
166
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,040
Paddy...
167
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,440
You all right? Neck all right?
Head all right?
168
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:38,480
Gutted.
169
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,560
Talk us through what you did.
What did you hit?
170
00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:45,200
It must have been a little bit
of oil on the road or something...
171
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,220
Yeah, yeah, cos I've been driving up and down
that road all day and that oil really got me.
172
00:11:48,220 --> 00:11:51,280
You hadn't been on that spot
in the torrential rain, had you?
173
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,480
Did you hit that oil as well?
174
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,540
Yeah, I must admit, I just backed
off a bit in that torrential rain. Yeah.
175
00:11:55,540 --> 00:11:58,380
It was just on a little bit
of a bend, that was it.
176
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,720
No more than 40.
177
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,560
But it really surprised me
how quickly it just goes from...
178
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,400
.. "Isn't this lovely?" to...
179
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,520
It is amazing how quickly
you can run out of talent.
180
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,180
Tsch.
181
00:12:13,380 --> 00:12:15,440
Ambition's a great thing, Chris.
182
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,120
But you've got to temper it.
183
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,480
Anyhoo, what can you do?
184
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,080
I'm having a butty.
185
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,600
The Diablo had shown
just what a handful
186
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,600
a 30-year-old supercar can be.
187
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,520
And it had paid the price doing it.
188
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:41,960
However, two of our cars
still had work to do.
189
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,040
Because the airfield we'd come to
190
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,240
was Elvington.
191
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,280
Boasting one of the
longest runways in the UK,
192
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:57,100
it was time to see what our
old pioneers still had in the tank.
193
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,720
It was time... for a good
old-fashioned drag race.
194
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,360
The race is as follows.
195
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,360
A rolling start, we want to be
kind on these old driveshafts.
196
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,320
So 40mph through the green flags,
197
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,360
the moment you go through the
green flag, you give it the beans
198
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,600
and you stop at the chequered flag.
199
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,080
Can you just confirm you've
heard that instruction?
200
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,520
We've had problems
here with you before.
201
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,840
I can't stop!
202
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,320
Ha-ha-ha!
203
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,960
I'm running out of runway!
204
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:29,960
SIRENS WAIL
205
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,975
I'm not going to lie, Chris, I'm a
bit apprehensive. I'll give it a go.
206
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,995
I mean, you should be quicker.
That is a faster car, Fred.
207
00:13:38,020 --> 00:13:40,200
HORN HONKS
Hello, boys!
208
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,480
Oh, my word.
209
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,800
What are you doing?
210
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,160
I thought you'd gone home.
211
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,280
You can't keep me out the race, pal.
212
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,760
HIGH—TEMPO MUSIC BUILDS
Green flags are coming, boys!
213
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,840
Here we go, here we go.
I'm nervous, I'm nervous.
214
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,280
Go!
215
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,760
Oh, my word, look at that Ferrari!
216
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,680
They are gone!
217
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:09,840
Whoo!
218
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,200
130.
219
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:14,560
140.

221
00:14:18,020 --> 00:14:20,680
There seems to be two dots

223
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,200
What a weapon!
224
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,120
Wow. She's still got it.
225
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,480
She has still got it.
226
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,760
Wow.
227
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:39,880
Whoo!
228
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,960
What did I do then? 170? 175?
229
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,960
That is speed like I've never
experienced. That was different.
230
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,720
That was so different.
231
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,440
Oh...
232
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:54,320
yes!
233
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,520
It's nice to get out.
That's the main thing.
234
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,320
- Fred?
- Chris.
235
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,320
They are a proper handful, aren't they?
236
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,040
This is moving all over the place.
237
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,160
I got over just 150,
238
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,440
but this car has got
so much more, Chris.
239
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,280
So much more.
240
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,040
I would love to get to 200.
241
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,560
Yeah, I think you're
on your own there, Fred.
242
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,800
If you want to go and seek 200,
243
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,280
I'll happily be an observer.
244
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,600
Yes, deciding fate hadn't been
tempted enough for one day,
245
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,300
Flintoff now wanted to
take a shot at the big one.
246
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,180
All right, how are we going,
Fred? Are you OK?
247
00:15:43,180 --> 00:15:46,360
I'm just turning round
right at the end of the runway.
248
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,720
I'm trying to give myself so much room.
249
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,560
And make no mistake,
250
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,960
hitting 200mph in a Jag
that's 30 years old
251
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,000
would be a big ask.
252
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,680
Best of luck, Andrew. Thank you
very much. I'll see you in a minute.
253
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:08,720
I hope.
254
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,000
ENGINE REVS
255
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,080
He's off.
256
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,760
Come on.
257
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,000
He's building. He's building.
258
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,700
He's doing a tonne already!
259
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,680
I'm going. I am travelling.
260
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,960
Oh, he's missed a gear change there,
he won't do 200 now.
261
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,680
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- No, no, no.
262
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,000
The foot is down.
I don't know how fast I'm going.
263
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,640
I'm not even looking.
264
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,280
160.170.
265
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,240
I'm trying to keep my hands loose.
266
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,120
But it's becoming
increasingly difficult!
267
00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:11,280
190.
268
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,840
Ohh!
269
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:19,600
Please stop.
270
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,440
Please stop! Please stop!
271
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,920
Oh, my word.
272
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,440
Oh-ho-ho!
273
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,400
Right, how quick do
you reckon you went?
274
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,280
I think it's the fastest
I've ever been in a car.
275
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:45,420
I had a glance down at one point,
I was 180, and I was going faster.
276
00:17:45,420 --> 00:17:49,180
I think you did 195,
I don't think it was 200, though.
277
00:17:49,180 --> 00:17:50,975
- 195?
- I think it was 195.
278
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,200
That was a warm up!
279
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,560
That was a warm up.
280
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,920
I think you get straight back in,
get out there.
281
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,140
I've just got to let it cool down, Pad.
282
00:17:58,140 --> 00:17:59,440
Oh, I tell you what...
283
00:17:59,464 --> 00:18:01,256
We've never
seen him like this, ever.
284
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,520
Do you know what,
I'll tell you how that felt, right?
285
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,280
You know when you go out
to bat at cricket? No.
286
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,580
- No, I don't.
- And I'm nervous, I'm going out,
287
00:18:07,580 --> 00:18:09,740
and the closer I get to the wicket,
288
00:18:09,764 --> 00:18:12,420
everything's coming alive,
and I love it.
289
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,560
That was like that times ten.
290
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,160
The faster I was going...
291
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,760
oh, I was going, I was,
292
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,260
"Come on, come on, come on!"
293
00:18:19,260 --> 00:18:20,806
You feel every mile
per hour in that one.
294
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,875
I tell you, if I trusted you, I'd give
you a go, but I can't. It's like...
295
00:18:24,900 --> 00:18:27,315
Oh, that burns.
Do you know what? That burns!
296
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:29,320
This is the first time
he's not crashed anything
297
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,040
and look at him,
he's like all the time.
298
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:32,720
Whoa, whoa, he's still got
another run to go.
299
00:18:32,744 --> 00:18:34,020
Oh, yeah, that's true.
300
00:18:34,020 --> 00:18:37,760
- I reckon, I think if I go again...
- Have a run round.
301
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,940
I'm going to slingshot it,
cos there's a bit of a run on.
302
00:18:39,940 --> 00:18:42,300
- Yeah, I think you'll do it.
- I reckon I can get on the runway at 70.
303
00:18:42,324 --> 00:18:42,860
Yeah!
304
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,960
So just 5 mph short of the big 200,
305
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,120
Flintoff lined up for one more go.
306
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,960
This time, with an even bigger run up.
307
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,640
I'm still thinking about
this cricket thing he said.
308
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,920
About going out to bat?
Did you feel that?
309
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:07,416
No.
310
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,549
The last time you had a bat
you did an off-licence over.
311
00:19:09,574 --> 00:19:10,820
Here we go.
312
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,840
Coming round.
Coming round.
313
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,360
Here we go, 70.
As soon as I get straight I'm off.
314
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,600
Am I good to go, Chris?
315
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,520
In your own time.
316
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,120
Godspeed.
317
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:29,560
Come on.
318
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,360
Good Lord.
Look what it just did 70 to 90 in.
319
00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:39,640
Into fourth. Come on.
Four, four, four.
320
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,480
That was a better gear change,
that was a better gear change.
321
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:47,640
Yeah, yeah, here we go.
322
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,480
Just got my foot right on the floor.
323
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,800
Go on. He's doing 140, he's not
even in sight and he's doing 140.
324
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,840
I'm a little bit all over the place.
I'm feeling everything.
325
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,800
170. He's going quick.
326
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,240
The car's making noises.
327
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,280
As I'm going fast, I can't push my
foot through any further.
328
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:14,920
I'm giving it beans.
329
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,600
190.
330
00:20:18,625 --> 00:20:21,380
Going up! Going up!
331
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,400
195...
332
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,800
That was close.
333
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,760
That was so close.
It must have been.
334
00:20:51,141 --> 00:20:52,460
Did I, did I do it?
335
00:20:52,484 --> 00:20:54,416
How do you do a
social distancing high five?
336
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,595
- Don't wind me up. Did I do it?
- Yes!
337
00:20:56,620 --> 00:20:57,520
FREDDIE LAUGHS
338
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,920
- We did it!
- Yes!
339
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:02,360
Give me that one. Give me that one.
340
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,920
Oh, I never scored a double
hundred as a batsman!
341
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,120
Can I have it in this though?
342
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:09,160
What was it like?
343
00:21:09,184 --> 00:21:11,780
It's like nothing else
I've ever driven or done.
344
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,667
- Do you know what got you over the 200?
- Brake late. - You brake late.
345
00:21:14,692 --> 00:21:16,239
I did, yeah. You took the mickey.
346
00:21:16,263 --> 00:21:17,456
You ignored the brake boards.
347
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,180
So we've got the health and
safety man over there
348
00:21:19,230 --> 00:21:22,120
- about to have a chat with you.
- No, no, no. I'll chat to that lad.
349
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:25,080
Because see, the other thing
I had in my favour...
350
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,695
I know what's at the end.
351
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,040
THEY LAUGH
352
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,780
It's fine. Well done, mate.
353
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,520
I can't believe how happy I am.
354
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,240
What a machine.
355
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,400
APPLAUSE
356
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,160
200 mph in an old Jag.
357
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,821
You, my friend, have got
some Scotch eggs on you.
358
00:22:01,845 --> 00:22:02,976
It was surreal.
359
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,720
It was the week
they eased lockdown a bit,
360
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:10,320
so I went from sitting on me couch
in me undies to driving this 200mph.
361
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,216
It was the best thing I think I've
ever done in a car.
362
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:13,955
Amazing.
363
00:22:13,980 --> 00:22:15,960
But let's be honest,
it's not about me, is it? I...
364
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,000
I feel there was something
missing here.
365
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:18,680
What?
366
00:22:18,704 --> 00:22:23,360
Well... that beautiful
Lamborghini that you crashed.
367
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:24,860
On a straight.
368
00:22:25,688 --> 00:22:28,415
- Firstly, I didn't crash it.
- What did you do?
369
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,440
- What's the definition of a crash, then?
- There's an hierarchy.
370
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,880
You can have a bump and a prang
and a crash and a shunt.
371
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,800
Mine was in between a crash
and a shunt. It were a crunt.
372
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,240
LAUGHTER
373
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,800
You, that's the first time you've
not crashed a car.
374
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,840
Yeah, but I've never crashed
a Lamborghini. And fair play to you.
375
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,440
If you're going to go, go big,
Paddy lad. Go big!
376
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,760
Honestly, I was genuinely gutted.
I am really sorry.
377
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,000
I'm sorry about the car,
I'm sorry to the owner,
378
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,800
he's over there,
I'm sorry to the insurance
379
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,560
company for telling them
that you were driving, Fred.
380
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,440
I'm just sorry, so please,
can we now move on from this?
381
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,080
No, I think we should
carry on talking about you crashing
382
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,680
a Lamborghini and your little face
when you went, "Oh, I crashed it!"
383
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,480
"Oh, it's got some power, this. Oh!"
384
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,975
- When you put your foot down.
- Shut it.
385
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,880
- What are we talking about next?
- You're not going to believe this.
386
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,560
- Crashed cars is the next subject.
- Great. Great.
387
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,615
Because we reckoned we might have
found a way to buy a fast,
388
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,840
interesting car for the price
of a slow, boring car.
389
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,980
Insurance write-offs.
390
00:23:25,980 --> 00:23:29,040
Cars that had been in a bit of a
scrape and the insurers have decided
391
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,520
they won't pay for the repair.
392
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:31,960
But if you're happy with a doer upper,
393
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,340
there are some absolute
steals out there.
394
00:23:34,340 --> 00:23:37,680
So we convinced the producers to
give us each six grand
395
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,240
and we went out to bag
ourselves a bargain.
396
00:23:49,468 --> 00:23:52,760
To show off our high-performance
write-offs,
397
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,080
we've been told to meet
up at the Top Gear track.
398
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,000
And let's just say,
for less than six grand,
399
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,300
I'd picked up an absolute belter.
400
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:08,400
This is my insurance write-off,
the Porsche Cayman S.
401
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,320
This car, this age, this mileage,
402
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,760
you're looking at around about £10,000.
403
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,640
I got it for five and a half grand.
404
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,880
And this is the trouble with
insurance companies now,
405
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,720
they're quick to write things off. They
can't be bothered with the paperwork.
406
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,480
But have a look round here.
407
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,680
Little bump on the front,
bit of teacup, buff it out,
408
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,620
it'll be good to go.
409
00:24:28,620 --> 00:24:31,200
Now, technically this car's
a write-off,
410
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,420
so I can't drive
it on the public roads,
411
00:24:33,420 --> 00:24:37,180
but in the right hands with
a bit of TLC, get an MOT on her,
412
00:24:37,180 --> 00:24:40,360
you've got yourself
a Porsche at a bargain price.
413
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:41,800
Oh!
414
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,100
Who's this?
415
00:24:43,100 --> 00:24:46,640
Now, if you prefer something Italian...
416
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,560
Maserati?
417
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,520
Quattroporte. Very nice!
418
00:24:51,745 --> 00:24:54,960
The next bargain out
the blocks was Flintoff's.
419
00:24:55,220 --> 00:24:58,160
Turning up backwards, for some reason.
420
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,280
Now, firstly, I've got to stop you,
because this is a minter.
421
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,920
You have not got this
for less than six grand.
422
00:25:06,944 --> 00:25:09,640
- These, new, 80 grand.
- Yeah.
423
00:25:09,874 --> 00:25:11,180
- A good 'un.
- Yeah.
424
00:25:11,204 --> 00:25:12,680
15 second-hand.
425
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:20,200
This, my friend,
£5,750 for a Maserati Quattroporte.
426
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,360
It is mint. Beautiful!
427
00:25:22,360 --> 00:25:24,360
There is a little
bit of damage at the front, but...
428
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:25,920
Little bit at the front.
Let's have a look.
429
00:25:25,944 --> 00:25:27,620
Won't really notice it, Pad.
430
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,680
Oh! It's a scratch. Yeah.
431
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,040
- Nothing that can't be buffed out.
- New bumper, a new bonnet.
432
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,780
A few hundred quid, max.
433
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,400
Got yourself an absolute bargain.
434
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,800
You see, mine's had a bit of a shunt
at the back there, but, again...
435
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,860
- You can live with that.
- You can live with it.
436
00:25:44,884 --> 00:25:46,135
You can, it's a Porsche.
437
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,520
- It's a Porsche.
- Five and a half grand.
438
00:25:47,544 --> 00:25:49,544
- For a Cayman S.
- Cayman S!
439
00:25:49,688 --> 00:25:51,648
Oh! Here he comes.
440
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,640
HORN TOOTS
441
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,180
HE LAUGHS
442
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:00,660
Morning, boys.
443
00:26:00,660 --> 00:26:05,555
Now, you know I love a Ford, but I've
got to say, this particular challenge,
444
00:26:05,580 --> 00:26:07,700
I think a Porsche and a Maserati...
445
00:26:07,876 --> 00:26:09,328
is a much better choice.
446
00:26:09,353 --> 00:26:12,560
Gen one Focus RS is
one of the most special low-volume
447
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,440
sports cars ever made.
448
00:26:14,464 --> 00:26:16,464
Should be15 grand.
449
00:26:16,488 --> 00:26:18,323
- Yeah?
- Five grand.
450
00:26:18,420 --> 00:26:21,300
And I've saved a classic
from the scrapheap.
451
00:26:21,324 --> 00:26:23,619
But... It looks mint.
There's a couple of scratches on it.
452
00:26:23,644 --> 00:26:25,120
- What's wrong with it?
- There.
453
00:26:25,120 --> 00:26:25,780
Is that it?
454
00:26:25,804 --> 00:26:28,700
The front wing. A little bit of suspension.
And that wheel. That's it.
455
00:26:28,761 --> 00:26:30,360
- That's it?!
- Yes.
456
00:26:30,360 --> 00:26:32,220
- Let's have a look at yours, boys.
- Yeah, look at that!
457
00:26:32,220 --> 00:26:33,760
Look at this, special, Cayman S.
458
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,760
Little bit
of a nick on the front there.
459
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,200
Oh, God.
460
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:41,120
A little bit of a nick? It's a
graze. A rash, they call it. A rash.
461
00:26:41,120 --> 00:26:44,520
- Gravel rash. Gravel rash.
- You've had a go at this end as well?
462
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,560
Well, technically not me.
I bought it in this condition.
463
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,600
So, how are you going to repair
that? The parts are so expensive.
464
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,600
It's just unrepairable, that.
465
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,000
Let's have a look at this one.
This looks mint. What's this, Fred?
466
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,760
- Quattroporte?
- Quattroporte!
467
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,520
They are beautiful cars. One of
the best-looking saloons ever made.
468
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,200
Where's the damage? It looks pretty
good to me.
469
00:27:01,224 --> 00:27:02,700
You have to look hard to find it.
470
00:27:02,700 --> 00:27:04,680
Oh!
471
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,640
Yeah, but... a few hundred quid,
get a bumper, new grille.
472
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,680
How many Quattroportes did
they sell in the UK, Fred?
473
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,440
- Are you expecting an answer?
- I think you can count them on two hands.
474
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:17,880
What's with the negativity?
475
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,576
I'm not being negative,
I'm being pragmatic.
476
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,480
Yeah, you are. No... Mr Nasty
Negative. You've gone out there...
477
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,840
We've got a Maserati
and a Porsche for under ten grand!
478
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,060
Fill your glass up.
479
00:27:27,060 --> 00:27:29,720
You've bought an absolutely
shambolic Cayman,
480
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,520
and you've bought a car that you
intend to fit with used parts,
481
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,520
of which there might be one other
that you can strip from in the UK.
482
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,960
I've got to be honest, I think...
Hello. Thank you.
483
00:27:41,300 --> 00:27:46,680
"Time to test how confident you are
in your so-called bargain fast cars.
484
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,120
"Using the whole runway,
please find out how fast they'll go.
485
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:53,880
- "If you go off the tarmac, you're out."
- Oh.
486
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,040
That Porsche is going to win
hands down on this tarmac.
487
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,720
I don't understand what you're
saying. Did you say hands down?
488
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,820
Hold that. Sorry.
In the cars, here we go.
489
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,480
Yes, to test how mechanically
sound our so-called write-offs were,
490
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,179
we've been given the entire
length of the runway
491
00:28:12,204 --> 00:28:16,880
and a fancy GPS speedo to find out
which would go fastest.
492
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,800
Or, to put it another way, see what
order the other two would lose.
493
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:24,720
Three...
494
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,500
two...
495
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,120
one...
496
00:28:28,120 --> 00:28:29,500
Go!
497
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:33,920
The Maserati's away!
498
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,640
Oh! Look at the Maserati go!
499
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,480
But the Cayman's coming back!
500
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,720
Here we go!
501
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,040
Oh, here comes the Porsche.
502
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,440
Already up to 120.
503
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,120
Can't even see Harris,
he's that far back.
504
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,320
Come on, the Ford!
505
00:28:57,868 --> 00:29:00,388
We are living the dream now!
506
00:29:00,388 --> 00:29:02,268
This is fast, and oh!
507
00:29:02,268 --> 00:29:03,908
Going to crash!
508
00:29:05,108 --> 00:29:07,948
HE LAUGHS
509
00:29:07,948 --> 00:29:10,108
Stop, stop, stop, stop!
510
00:29:12,228 --> 00:29:14,548
McGuinness is off!
McGuinness is off!
511
00:29:14,548 --> 00:29:16,148
HE LAUGHS
512
00:29:20,308 --> 00:29:21,468
REVVING
513
00:29:26,108 --> 00:29:27,689
All right, Pad?
514
00:29:28,388 --> 00:29:30,148
I think I've overshot.
515
00:29:30,148 --> 00:29:32,548
THEY LAUGH
516
00:29:32,548 --> 00:29:36,468
So, 141.6.
517
00:29:36,468 --> 00:29:37,508
Fast.
518
00:29:37,508 --> 00:29:40,668
135.8. But died.
519
00:29:40,668 --> 00:29:42,868
What did you get, about 62?
520
00:29:42,868 --> 00:29:46,075
125 and I didn't do the decimal point,
521
00:29:46,100 --> 00:29:48,440
cos there was no point,
cos I was below you.
522
00:29:49,356 --> 00:29:50,555
Wow.
523
00:29:50,580 --> 00:29:53,278
But I still won, because
I didn't go on the grass. I mean...
524
00:29:53,415 --> 00:29:54,363
What?
525
00:29:54,388 --> 00:29:56,708
What are you on about?
The challenge was top speed.
526
00:29:56,708 --> 00:30:00,195
- No. It was and it wasn't, wasn't it?
- Did you not remember the words?
527
00:30:00,220 --> 00:30:02,515
- Well, I read them.
- You had to stay on the runway.
528
00:30:02,540 --> 00:30:06,668
This is not part of the
runway, therefore I won.
529
00:30:06,668 --> 00:30:08,140
- Do you know what?
- What?
530
00:30:08,164 --> 00:30:09,380
- You're right.
- I know.
531
00:30:09,404 --> 00:30:10,924
- And I read it.
- Oh!
532
00:30:10,948 --> 00:30:12,500
Thank you.
533
00:30:13,028 --> 00:30:17,068
More than two thirds of UK cars
have been damaged in car parks.
534
00:30:17,068 --> 00:30:20,635
To see how your write-offs handle
this dangerous environment,
535
00:30:20,660 --> 00:30:25,120
time for a round of
Parking Space Musical Chairs.
536
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:31,140
Yes, to test our car's
low-speed agility...
537
00:30:33,100 --> 00:30:36,180
we'd now play a four-wheeled
version of one of the all-time
538
00:30:36,180 --> 00:30:38,380
great children's party games.
539
00:30:39,060 --> 00:30:42,980
Parking Space Musical Chairs
takes one busy car park,
540
00:30:42,980 --> 00:30:45,820
one space fewer than
the number of cars playing
541
00:30:45,820 --> 00:30:49,135
and a big air horn to start
and stop play.
542
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,195
KLAXON BLARES
543
00:30:50,220 --> 00:30:53,535
As you'd expect, if you dash for
a space and don't find one,
544
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,140
you're out of the game.
545
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:57,740
I'm not sure about this, boys.
546
00:30:57,740 --> 00:31:00,880
I know this Focus RS has been
written off,
547
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,180
but I get the feeling there
might be some contact
548
00:31:03,180 --> 00:31:05,520
and I don't want contact
in this Focus RS.
549
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:09,140
Worryingly, though,
to ramp up the competition,
550
00:31:09,140 --> 00:31:13,455
it wouldn't just be us racing for
the spaces... we'd be up against
551
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:18,860
a trio of Toyota Priuses, officially
Britain's most crashed car.
552
00:31:18,860 --> 00:31:23,640
Oh! There they are. Ho-ho!
It's the Prius army.
553
00:31:24,620 --> 00:31:28,640
All of them driven by Britain's
most reckless drivers...
554
00:31:29,140 --> 00:31:31,400
Stig's teenage cousins.
555
00:31:34,820 --> 00:31:37,220
Chris, I've just thought of something.
556
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:42,040
If you get in the car with me, I can
use the parent and child spot.
557
00:31:43,060 --> 00:31:44,100
FREDDIE LAUGHS
558
00:31:50,860 --> 00:31:54,020
See a gap, see a parking spot,
get in it, that's it.

We're off. Come on!

00:31:59,860 --> 00:32:02,220
Oh, he's banging me already, the Stig.
562
00:32:03,740 --> 00:32:07,820
Oh! I don't know what to do,
whether to go slow... Hey!
563
00:32:07,820 --> 00:32:08,980
Get out the way, Paddy.
564
00:32:10,180 --> 00:32:13,580
What's the strategy?
What's the strategy here?
565
00:32:13,580 --> 00:32:14,900
Chris!
566
00:32:16,500 --> 00:32:18,660
Take your time, take your time.
567
00:32:18,660 --> 00:32:20,420
Oh, I've got to get round quick now!
568
00:32:22,740 --> 00:32:25,620
Take my time again, take my time again.
569
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:28,380
Where's the klaxon? Where's
the klaxon? I'm getting tense!

Oh, I'm in! I'm in!

Get in here. Get in.
I'm in. Yes! It's a better spot.
574
00:32:43,660 --> 00:32:46,960
- ON RADIO: Are we all in, gents?
- Never in doubt.
575
00:32:47,820 --> 00:32:52,420
So, first round over
and a Prius eliminated...
576
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:58,140
one space would now be filled
ready for round two.
577
00:32:58,700 --> 00:33:00,860
Five cars, four spaces.
578
00:33:00,860 --> 00:33:04,040
Don't know about you,
but I'm nervous, I'm anxious.
579
00:33:04,420 --> 00:33:07,140
Paddy, do you need someone to
explain that math to you?
580

Hey!

You little BLEEP.
585
00:33:20,180 --> 00:33:22,180
Get out my way.
Where are you going?
586
00:33:24,340 --> 00:33:26,820
You can go ahead, mate.
Try and block me all you want.
587
00:33:27,020 --> 00:33:29,560
Oh, Flintoff's here in
that bloody Maserati.

00:33:29,584 --> 00:33:30,716
McGuinness.
589
00:33:30,740 --> 00:33:33,180
- Get out.
- What is he doing?!

Ha-ha, McGuinness!

Oh, no!
Oh, no!

Go on, go on, go on.
Same spot. Get in!

Is there one there? Oh, BLEEP.

00:33:54,060 --> 00:33:56,260
Oh, no! I'm out!

To be honest, I'm glad. I'm glad.
599
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,080
I can keep the damage to a minimum.
600

too. McGuinness was out...

Come on, come on.
604
00:34:13,540 --> 00:34:15,980
and let's just say
we sailed through that...
605
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:18,700
Oh!
606
00:34:18,700 --> 00:34:20,360
...without a hitch.
607
00:34:20,660 --> 00:34:21,700
Bloody Prius!

Prius left standing between us
612
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,440
and a showdown.
613
00:34:36,060 --> 00:34:38,500
Oh, he's going
to put me in the bollards here.
614
00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:41,260
Flintoff's off again.
Flintoff's off again.

Where's the spot?
Where is it?
619
00:34:51,580 --> 00:34:53,440
Oh, I'm in! I'm bloody in.
620
00:34:54,340 --> 00:34:57,520
Oh, Stig's out. Stig's out.
There you are, Stig.

Car Park Musical Chairs... The Final.
624
00:35:11,620 --> 00:35:13,240
And then there was two...
625
00:35:13,980 --> 00:35:15,100
...and one space.
626
00:35:16,380 --> 00:35:18,060
You and me, Fred, it's you and me.
627
00:35:18,060 --> 00:35:20,020
I'm willing to take this quite far,
628
00:35:20,020 --> 00:35:23,820

Oh, dear, that's not good.

See, Harris won't nudge Flintoff,

and he knows Flintoff will
completely wipe him out.
641
00:36:09,340 --> 00:36:10,860
Now come and get me, Flintoff.
642
00:36:16,980 --> 00:36:19,980
Flintoff! No! Oh!
643
00:36:21,460 --> 00:36:22,420
Sorry!

Oh, Flintoff's gone too wide!
Harris is in!
649
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:40,940
No!

00:36:50,940 --> 00:36:51,980
Oh!
653
00:36:54,180 --> 00:36:56,140
Where is it?
654
00:36:57,275 --> 00:36:58,315
Ooft!
655
00:36:58,900 --> 00:37:00,940
Where's Harris? Where's Harris?
656
00:37:03,460 --> 00:37:05,120
That was yours, Chris.
657
00:37:05,940 --> 00:37:08,500
If you'd have gone back round,
it was yours.
658
00:37:08,500 --> 00:37:10,060
I was just trying to breathe.
659
00:37:10,060 --> 00:37:12,380
Oh, right, yeah,
that's always a good thing.
660
00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:15,260
It's kind of a win.
661
00:37:15,260 --> 00:37:17,340
If the cars...
662
00:37:17,340 --> 00:37:19,740
I just don't know what to say to you.
663
00:37:19,740 --> 00:37:22,420
If these cars...
664
00:37:22,420 --> 00:37:25,220
- Fred, look at that.
- Yeah. Chris, I'm sorry.
665
00:37:25,220 --> 00:37:27,060
It brings out the best
in me, competition,
666
00:37:27,060 --> 00:37:28,660
- but it can bring out the worst.
- Yeah.
667
00:37:28,660 --> 00:37:32,240
If these cars weren't
write-offs before, they are now.
668
00:37:34,980 --> 00:37:37,740
But they weren't dead yet,
669
00:37:37,740 --> 00:37:40,260
because to see if our write-offs
really were worth saving
670
00:37:40,260 --> 00:37:44,495
from the scrapheap, the producers
told us to use whatever we had left
671
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:49,460
from our six-grand budget to get
them fixed up and back on the road.
672
00:37:54,180 --> 00:37:57,420
So, a few months, a global pandemic
673
00:37:57,420 --> 00:38:00,035
and one bottle of hair bleach later,
674
00:38:00,060 --> 00:38:01,900
we were back in business.
675
00:38:02,340 --> 00:38:04,400
Or at least two of us were.
676
00:38:05,660 --> 00:38:07,500
This is the life.
677
00:38:07,860 --> 00:38:09,700
Out on the open road
678
00:38:09,700 --> 00:38:13,260
in my Porsche, living the dream.
679
00:38:13,860 --> 00:38:20,380
I mean, this thing has cost me six
grand all in... an absolute bargain.
680
00:38:23,620 --> 00:38:26,580
Paddy, what exactly have you done?
681
00:38:26,580 --> 00:38:30,940
Now, yes, I've had to beg, borrow
and steal with the spares
682
00:38:30,940 --> 00:38:32,860
because obviously I didn't have
683
00:38:32,860 --> 00:38:35,900
the budget, but I quite like
the different colours.
684
00:38:35,900 --> 00:38:41,080
It's a patchwork quilt of a car and
who doesn't like a patchwork quilt?
685
00:38:41,700 --> 00:38:44,000
Why have you gone for pink at the rear?
686
00:38:45,060 --> 00:38:46,700
It's better than brown!
687
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:51,220
That car looks
good as new you're driving.
688
00:38:51,220 --> 00:38:54,980
Mate, it is a honey and,
of course, being a Ford,
689
00:38:54,980 --> 00:38:57,860
parts prices are cheap as chips,
which was necessary
690
00:38:57,860 --> 00:39:01,920
because Flintoff dented every single
panel apart from the roof.
691
00:39:03,500 --> 00:39:07,540
So, I've got an absolutely
mint-looking Ford Focus RS...
692
00:39:07,540 --> 00:39:10,855
one of my favourite cars ever...
for £6,000.
693
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,820
For once, we are
onto something with these things.
694
00:39:13,820 --> 00:39:16,580
We are definitely onto something.
695
00:39:16,580 --> 00:39:19,720
Write-offs are actually right-on.
696
00:39:22,020 --> 00:39:26,340
But, in the spirit of fairness,
to fix up my battered Ford,
697
00:39:26,365 --> 00:39:30,220
Flintoff had also given up
the rest of his six-grand budget.
698
00:39:31,100 --> 00:39:33,060
So, the question now was...
699
00:39:33,060 --> 00:39:35,620
what had become of his Maserati?
700
00:39:36,700 --> 00:39:38,400
Oh, my God.
701
00:39:40,660 --> 00:39:42,220
Morning, boys!
702
00:39:42,220 --> 00:39:47,194
May I introduce you to
the Mad MAXERATI?
703
00:39:47,218 --> 00:39:49,218
Very nice!
704
00:39:50,820 --> 00:39:52,940
I couldn't afford any new stuff,
705
00:39:52,940 --> 00:39:57,540
so I thought, rather than have the
new bits, get rid of the old ones.
706
00:39:57,540 --> 00:40:00,420
I've taken everything out
that's unnecessary
707
00:40:00,420 --> 00:40:04,260
and created an absolute monster.
Look at it.
708
00:40:04,620 --> 00:40:06,180
Fred, I don't often say this,
709
00:40:06,180 --> 00:40:09,575
but you have absolutely
knocked it out of the park.
710
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,127
- It looks fantastic.
- I love it.
711
00:40:14,140 --> 00:40:15,940
I've got to say as well, Chris,
712
00:40:15,940 --> 00:40:20,900
seeing your car back to its former
glory has made me just as happy.
713
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:23,540
I apologise profusely. I really do.
714
00:40:25,980 --> 00:40:30,555
And the other thing about it, Pad,
now it's lighter it's faster.
715
00:40:30,580 --> 00:40:31,700
See you later, son!
716
00:40:33,790 --> 00:40:36,480
Ho-ho-ho! Yes!
717
00:40:37,945 --> 00:40:41,340
Now, having proven once
and for all the sheer
718
00:40:41,340 --> 00:40:45,580
genius of the high-performance
write-off, the sensible thing to do
719
00:40:45,580 --> 00:40:49,140
would have been to take them
for a nice, long, scenic drive.
720
00:40:50,660 --> 00:40:51,700
Lovely stuff.
721
00:40:55,740 --> 00:40:57,700
What we were actually
told to do, though
722
00:40:57,700 --> 00:41:02,680
was head to North London's
Alexandra Palace for a test.
723
00:41:03,500 --> 00:41:05,460
Hay, lads, this is the old Ally Pally.
724
00:41:06,780 --> 00:41:10,340
Please, please tell me, Paddy,
you're taking us to the darts.
725
00:41:10,340 --> 00:41:12,100
I love it.
726
00:41:14,380 --> 00:41:18,257
But whatever it was the producers
had in store,
727
00:41:18,282 --> 00:41:21,700
it definitely wasn't darts.
728
00:41:34,260 --> 00:41:36,260
Oh, oh, what is going on in here?
729
00:41:38,820 --> 00:41:39,860
What the hell is that?
730
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,480
I don't know, but it looks like
it could probably hurt.
731
00:41:48,140 --> 00:41:51,040
Challenge. There's a challenge
over there.
732
00:41:55,940 --> 00:41:56,800
Right...
733
00:41:57,380 --> 00:41:59,100
Let's see what they've got for us.
734
00:42:00,140 --> 00:42:03,400
You've brought your insurance
write-offs back from the dead.
735
00:42:03,660 --> 00:42:07,220
Now it's time for them
to face the ultimate test.
736
00:42:07,220 --> 00:42:15,120
You must all hit 50 mph around
the Top Gear Wall Of Death.
737
00:42:17,580 --> 00:42:19,060
So, that's what it is.
738
00:42:22,347 --> 00:42:24,640
Yes, the Wall Of Death.
739
00:42:25,540 --> 00:42:29,700
The legendary daredevil act
that, for over a century, has seen
740
00:42:29,700 --> 00:42:33,620
motorcycle riders pin themselves
to a vertical wall,
741
00:42:33,620 --> 00:42:35,660
relying on nothing but skill,
742
00:42:35,660 --> 00:42:38,420
bravery and physics to keep them there.
743
00:42:40,700 --> 00:42:44,100
The walls themselves are normally
just a few metres wide,
744
00:42:44,500 --> 00:42:47,320
but scaled up to cope with our cars
745
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:51,200
this one was an absolute monster.
746
00:42:52,180 --> 00:42:54,420
Oh! Not on your nelly.
747
00:42:54,420 --> 00:42:56,680
Not on your nelly.
748
00:42:57,780 --> 00:42:59,560
What?!
749
00:43:01,420 --> 00:43:06,940
160 tonnes of wood
and steel built 100 feet wide
750
00:43:06,940 --> 00:43:08,980
and as tall as a house.
751
00:43:09,980 --> 00:43:15,355
And, just like any wall of death,
at the top, still completely
752
00:43:15,380 --> 00:43:18,100
and utterly vertical.
753
00:43:21,180 --> 00:43:24,500
This is brilliantly stupid. The
headlines are going to be brilliant.
754
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:27,820
This is just brilliant.
I tell you what, Pad, this is...
755
00:43:27,820 --> 00:43:30,340
They've gone all out for BBC One,
haven't they? Yeah.
756
00:43:30,340 --> 00:43:33,740
They've gone, "How can we get the
ratings? We'll kill them all." Yeah.
757
00:43:35,420 --> 00:43:38,100
To at least try and stop this
from being the last thing
758
00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:42,380
we'd ever do, the producers had been
good enough to enlist some help.
759
00:43:43,460 --> 00:43:47,785
Guiding us up the wall would be the
world's leading wall of death rider
760
00:43:47,910 --> 00:43:49,220
Ken Fox.
761
00:43:51,540 --> 00:43:52,860
Right...
762
00:43:52,860 --> 00:43:54,900
you're going to start off round
the bottom at what
763
00:43:54,900 --> 00:43:58,260
we call the banking track
and learning how the vehicle steers.
764
00:43:58,260 --> 00:44:00,580
I know you're used to
driving those vehicles
765
00:44:00,580 --> 00:44:02,060
but they steer different there...
766
00:44:02,060 --> 00:44:05,620
the steering changes a little
bit and becomes a bit more lively.
767
00:44:05,620 --> 00:44:08,020
Then we go a little bit higher
and it will feel like you're
768
00:44:08,020 --> 00:44:11,300
doing a million miles an hour
and it will be 20mph
769
00:44:11,300 --> 00:44:14,659
and then we just gradually keep
building up and building up
770
00:44:14,684 --> 00:44:17,900
until you're up there and you don't
know how it happened...
771
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:19,020
you're just up there.
772
00:44:19,020 --> 00:44:23,100
OK. So, Ken, what can possibly go
wrong here? What are we looking at?
773
00:44:23,100 --> 00:44:26,600
Well, the last crash I had
I was airlifted to hospital.
774
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,940
I ripped my ear off, they had to
glue my ear back on,
775
00:44:29,940 --> 00:44:31,460
did some ribs in my chest,
776
00:44:31,460 --> 00:44:33,360
bashed my brains about.
777
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,620
You know when it's in your blood,
it's what you do and... Right, OK.
778
00:44:36,620 --> 00:44:39,380
- ...you just do it.
- No, Ken, no, Ken.
779
00:44:39,380 --> 00:44:42,100
No, Ken. No, Ken. Both my sons...
780
00:44:42,100 --> 00:44:44,020
You don't have any blood.
It's all on the thing.
781
00:44:44,020 --> 00:44:46,460
It's what we do.
We enjoy doing it.
782
00:44:46,460 --> 00:44:50,520
When you've accomplished this, you
will feel taller.
783
00:44:50,544 --> 00:44:51,116
Yeah?
784
00:44:51,140 --> 00:44:52,380
I feel better with Ken.
785
00:44:52,380 --> 00:44:55,220
You know, I know he's told us a few
bad things there...
786
00:44:55,220 --> 00:44:56,440
- He's calm, isn't he?
- He's very calming.
787
00:44:56,464 --> 00:44:58,156
I think we need
to do something, Ken.
788
00:44:58,180 --> 00:45:01,880
- Let's get something inside.
- Let's do it. Let's get on with it.
789
00:45:05,380 --> 00:45:07,540
Our training will begin in this.
790
00:45:08,267 --> 00:45:11,267
The can-am Maverick XRS.
791
00:45:11,580 --> 00:45:13,540
With almost 200 horsepower
792
00:45:13,540 --> 00:45:16,760
and weighing in at just 750 kilos,
793
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:22,100
it's fair to say getting up the wall in
this would be much easier than in our cars.
794
00:45:23,380 --> 00:45:25,300
- All right, my mate?
- Yeah.
795
00:45:25,300 --> 00:45:28,940
What it was, though, was the
perfect vehicle for Ken
796
00:45:28,940 --> 00:45:32,420
to give us our first taste of the vertical.
797
00:45:32,700 --> 00:45:33,740
Here he goes.
798
00:45:37,300 --> 00:45:38,340
What the BLEEP?
799
00:45:40,660 --> 00:45:42,820
Oh! Whoa!
800
00:45:42,820 --> 00:45:44,420
Oh, go on, Paddy, lad!
801
00:45:47,140 --> 00:45:48,900
You all right, Paddy?
802
00:45:48,900 --> 00:45:51,380
- Jesus Christ!
- Is it good?
803
00:45:53,620 --> 00:45:56,260
To keep our cars on the wall...
804
00:45:56,260 --> 00:45:58,880
Hells bells! This is so good.
805
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,340
...we'd be pulling almost 4G.
806
00:46:01,340 --> 00:46:04,380
Fred will be going now, "Faster!"
807
00:46:05,584 --> 00:46:08,680
Every part of our write-offs would
have to withstand
808
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,640
four times its normal load.
809
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,200
- Wow. I'm getting dizzy again.
- You can't watch it round, can you?
810
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,560
Getting dizzy again.
811
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,440
And, at the risk of blacking out
the longer we ran, we'd have to
812
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,640
fight to stay in control.
813
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,380
I tell you something,
814
00:46:25,380 --> 00:46:28,915
if I'd have heard that noise first,
I wouldn't have wanted to get in.
815
00:46:28,940 --> 00:46:30,740
It's a bit unsettling, isn't it?
816
00:46:31,180 --> 00:46:33,480
I've not said a word there.
817
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,475
I had to hold my breath and pump
a bit cos I started to go.
818
00:46:36,500 --> 00:46:37,599
- Did you?
- Yeah.
819
00:46:37,623 --> 00:46:38,336
All good, Chris?
820
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,440
That's interesting. What?
821
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,775
How are we going to do that?
No idea.
822
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,080
How are you going to drive
a Porsche Cayman round there?
823
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:46,520
Not a clue.
824
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,675
We'd had our first taste of the wall
825
00:46:51,700 --> 00:46:55,540
and the forces we'd have to
endure to stay vertical.
826
00:46:56,405 --> 00:46:58,140
Next, we'd do it again.
827
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,100
This time in the driver's seat.
828
00:47:02,100 --> 00:47:03,380
- You good?
- Good.
829
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,080
And as McGuinness got stuck
into his training session...
830
00:47:09,104 --> 00:47:10,335
That's weird!
831
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,480
That's good. That's good, mate.
That's excellent.
832
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,580
...it turned out that driving around
in circles...
833
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,080
And faster, please.
834
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,920
...is not as straightforward
as it looks.
835
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:25,440
- Faster!
- Come on.
836
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,380
Keep going. Keep going!
837
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,280
Oh! Hold it there, hold it there,
just hold it there.
838
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,120
Now he's got the wobble on.
Hold it there.
839
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,440
No, no, no, no, no, no.
840
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,480
Higher.
Higher.
841
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,640
Yes, stay there, stay there,
stay there.
842
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,640
OK, come in.
843
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:51,600
Come in, come in.
844
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:55,346
- Well, it wasn't pretty but he's done it.
- He got up.
845
00:47:55,370 --> 00:47:57,370
Well done, Paddy.
846
00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,800
Well done, Pad.
847
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,700
I won't lie to you, I nearly blacked
out, but it's all right.
848
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:14,820
With McGuinness just about getting
it, next it was my turn.
849
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,880
Perfect, perfect, perfect.
Very good.
850
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,615
And getting up and running,
I soon discovered that the real
851
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:25,200
challenge of the wall is keeping
your speed and line as smooth
852
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:28,700
as possible as you step
up to the next level.
853
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,760
Stay there, stay there, stay there.
854
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,340
That's it, that's it.
855
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,200
Stay there. Brilliant, well done.
856
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:39,720
He's on it. He's on it. He's up.
857
00:48:39,720 --> 00:48:41,360
He's on it. Come in, mate. Come in.
858
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,720
Get in there!
859
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:50,100
- Absolutely spot-on, young man.
- Get in!
860
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,760
Fair play to Harris,
he'd shown how it's done.
861
00:48:55,880 --> 00:49:00,180
But it turns out there is another
technique for tackling the wall.
862
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,100
I like to call it The Flintoff.
863
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,200
Where you place your right
foot on the accelerator...
864
00:49:09,856 --> 00:49:11,776
He's going very fast.
865
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,580
...and smash it into the floor.
866
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:17,680
How fast is he going?
867
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:19,880
That's it. Stay there. Stay there.
868
00:49:22,240 --> 00:49:23,800
I'm on the wall!
869
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,560
OK, come in, come in, come in now.
870
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,430
- How fast was he going?
- He put his foot down then.
871
00:49:41,455 --> 00:49:43,860
- How fast was he going?
- Jesus, Ken.
872
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,220
Did I get up?
873
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,740
Just. Just.
874
00:49:48,764 --> 00:49:52,120
We couldn't
spin our heads round quick enough.
875
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,360
Come on, then, Ken,
how have we done, the three of us?
876
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,800
All three of you,
you've done good in the toy.
877
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,080
Now we go and get the real motors in.
878
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,240
So, who's going to
go in the cars first?
879
00:50:08,240 --> 00:50:10,195
Go on, then,
I'll give the Porsche a whirl.
880
00:50:10,219 --> 00:50:11,255
- All right, Paddy.
- Yeah.
881
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:12,760
Go and get the motor ready.
882
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:18,720
This was it, then.
883
00:50:18,720 --> 00:50:22,375
Time to put our six grand
back-from-the-dead write-offs
884
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,800
into the biggest test they'd ever face.
885
00:50:27,420 --> 00:50:30,535
We'd each get one
shot at the wall in our cars
886
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:35,135
and to succeed, we'd have to keep
all four wheels on the vertical
887
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,280
whilst clocking at least 50 mph.
888
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,640
Suffice to say, the pressure was on.
889
00:50:44,219 --> 00:50:50,875
I have never felt as nervous and
as scared about anything in my life.
890
00:50:50,900 --> 00:50:53,400
This is... This is real.
891
00:50:58,140 --> 00:51:00,720
OK, Paddy, my friend, let's get going.
892
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,740
Here we go, he's off. Come on, Pad.
893
00:51:04,940 --> 00:51:08,640
OK, this is the weirdest thing ever,
this.
894
00:51:08,664 --> 00:51:11,360
- Come on, Pad.
- Come on, Paddy.
895
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:17,040
Faster.
896
00:51:18,321 --> 00:51:20,120
- Oh, God.
- Higher.
897
00:51:20,144 --> 00:51:22,144
I'm really sweating.
898
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:25,540
He's going up the wall.
899
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,060
Faster, faster.
900
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:32,160
Higher.
901
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:34,940
This does not feel good.
902
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,280
Wow! He's going faster.
903
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,300
Faster.
Faster.
904
00:51:44,717 --> 00:51:45,757
He's up.
905
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,640
Higher.
906
00:51:58,280 --> 00:51:59,720
Just up, just.
907
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,120
Look at the speed.
Look at the speed.
908
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:11,160
Yes!
909
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,020
You're doing 55.
910
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,260
Bumper's off. He's done it.
911
00:52:18,240 --> 00:52:20,020
Well done, Paddy!
912
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:22,100
55.
913
00:52:23,300 --> 00:52:25,140
Totally happy with that.
914
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,000
- Oh, my word.
- He's broken the suspension.
915
00:52:29,024 --> 00:52:29,955
Well done, Paddy!
916
00:52:29,995 --> 00:52:33,600
Paddy, get out and have a look
at your left rear wheel.
917
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,060
Look at that wheel.
918
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,480
Dear me!
919
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:43,360
- Yes!
- Did he really do that?
920
00:52:44,325 --> 00:52:46,955
Oh! Who's up next, boys?
921
00:52:46,980 --> 00:52:48,920
Chris Harris, come on down.
922
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:50,760
Come on, Chris!
923
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,760
McGuinness had done it.
The Cayman had just held on.
924
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,560
And now it was over to Harris.
925
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,880
Here we go, driving a Focus...
up a wall.
926
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,620
OK, Chris, off you go.
927
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:19,660
I suddenly feel quite nervous.
928
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,680
Straight up. Straight away.
Whoa, that is mad.
929
00:53:25,240 --> 00:53:28,640
OK, I feel stable.
And it feels bigger.
930
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:32,040
I haven't got as much
margin between the boards.
931
00:53:32,064 --> 00:53:33,760
Faster.
932
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:35,440
Faster.
933
00:53:35,720 --> 00:53:37,360
Higher.
934
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,080
Oh! Oh!
935
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,185
He's on! He's up!
936
00:53:47,210 --> 00:53:48,780
- Come on, Chris!
- Go on, Harris!
937
00:53:48,780 --> 00:53:50,520
The front's going to come off.
938
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:11,100
Go on. Oh, nearly there!
Come on, come on!
939
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:16,860
Something's come off.
940
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:28,640
Go on, Chris! Yes!
941
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,560
- Has the tyre gone?
- That's sketchy.
942
00:54:38,988 --> 00:54:40,960
What's happened?
What's the noise for?
943
00:54:41,183 --> 00:54:42,375
Something's come off.
944
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:43,820
There's a bit of car...
945
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,900
Nice and steady and stop, mate.
946
00:54:48,431 --> 00:54:50,727
Well done, 54.85.
947
00:54:50,752 --> 00:54:52,280
That will do me perfectly.
948
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:56,280
- Well done, Chris!
- Yes, Harris!
949
00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,632
- I know, we saw that come off.
- What's that?
950
00:54:59,660 --> 00:55:01,480
- I don't know!
- Don't know!
951
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,320
Fantastic, pal.
952
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:07,960
Now, I will never, ever,
ever do the Wall Of Death again.
953
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:09,840
Oh, you say that, you say that.
954
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:11,755
Right, Flintoff, come on.
955
00:55:11,780 --> 00:55:14,080
Go on, Fred. Finish the job.
956
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,020
Two down,
957
00:55:18,020 --> 00:55:19,360
one to go,
958
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:23,320
but the wall had already badly
damaged the two smaller, lighter
959
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,240
cars and Flintoff's Maserati
960
00:55:26,240 --> 00:55:30,080
was the biggest and heaviest of the lot.
961
00:55:30,700 --> 00:55:34,960
I think he has the worst
vehicle for this by a mile.
962
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,375
I'm worried about what it's
going to do on the top
963
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:39,720
banking at sustained speed.
964
00:55:39,720 --> 00:55:42,760
I mean, I've got everything crossed
nothing goes wrong with it
965
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:44,880
but it's just not a good look.
966
00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:51,860
- Ready, Freddie?
- Good, mate.
967
00:55:51,884 --> 00:55:53,460
Right, okay, off you go, my man.
968
00:55:53,460 --> 00:55:55,840
- Here we go. We're off.
- Go on, Fred!
969
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,820
This is it.
The final run of the day.
970
00:56:00,876 --> 00:56:04,320
I tell you what, it's a completely
different experience.
971
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,355
Already looks heavy.
972
00:56:06,380 --> 00:56:08,160
It looks outrageous from here.
973
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,420
He's going for it.
974
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:13,400
Mate.
975
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,080
Faster.
976
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,475
I can feel the weight of the car.
977
00:56:24,500 --> 00:56:26,695
It just wants to come down the wall.
978
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:28,740
It's completely different to the buggy.
979
00:56:28,740 --> 00:56:30,140
Higher.
980
00:56:30,718 --> 00:56:33,140
- Faster.
- That's what we're asking for.
981
00:56:35,446 --> 00:56:40,194
Higher.
Higher! Higher.
982
00:56:41,679 --> 00:56:43,319
Oh, my God.
983
00:56:43,475 --> 00:56:44,700
Feel the wind!
984
00:56:44,700 --> 00:56:45,820
Oh!
985
00:56:45,820 --> 00:56:47,380
56.
986
00:56:51,366 --> 00:56:53,340
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
987
00:56:54,740 --> 00:56:56,420
Come in, come in.
988
00:56:56,420 --> 00:56:57,900
Come in now.
989
00:56:57,900 --> 00:56:59,720
Something's happened.
Something's happened.
990
00:56:59,720 --> 00:57:02,480
Something's happened.
I'm on fire.
991
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,055
- What's happened?
- Just stop.
992
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:05,700
- Just stop at that.
- What's happened?
993
00:57:05,724 --> 00:57:07,036
- Just stop, just stop.
- What is it?
994
00:57:07,060 --> 00:57:08,700
Don't know.
995
00:57:09,673 --> 00:57:13,579
Oh! That was unbelievable.
996
00:57:13,728 --> 00:57:15,118
Did I get up?
997
00:57:15,498 --> 00:57:17,935
Fred, when the smoke came out,
998
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,235
me and him were up here and we were
like, "Get off that wall."
999
00:57:21,260 --> 00:57:23,315
That was properly dramatic.
1000
00:57:23,340 --> 00:57:25,300
Did I get up? Did I get up, though?
1001
00:57:25,500 --> 00:57:27,100
I'm sure he was on the wall.
1002
00:57:33,220 --> 00:57:35,180
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1003
00:57:45,817 --> 00:57:47,937
I can't. No.
1004
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:52,675
I've watched the footage back and yeah,
1005
00:57:52,700 --> 00:57:56,880
I got 50 but I didn't have all four
wheels on the vertical.
1006
00:57:56,904 --> 00:57:57,656
No.
1007
00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,280
I'm the last of a dying breed...
1008
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:02,220
I'm an honest sportsman,
so I've got to hold my hands up.
1009
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:05,640
That is very, very honest.
I give you that. I give you that.
1010
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,160
I could make excuses...
1011
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:10,200
I had the heaviest car by far,
my suspension went
1012
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,395
so I couldn't steer, you two had
damaged the wall before we started...
1013
00:58:13,420 --> 00:58:15,435
but that's just not how
I operate. I don't do that.
1014
00:58:15,460 --> 00:58:16,835
I don't make excuses.
1015
00:58:16,860 --> 00:58:20,295
No, and Pad, fair play to you, mate,
fastest speed on the wall.
1016
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:22,200
That takes some skill.
It really does.
1017
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,040
- I don't like to talk about it, Chris.
- No, of course you don't.
1018
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,955
It's a collective effort, lads.
There's no "I" in "team"
1019
00:58:27,980 --> 00:58:30,115
but there is an "all" in "wall".
1020
00:58:30,140 --> 00:58:31,720
Oh, yes! Have some of that!
1021
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,480
Hadrian, Berlin, hole-in-the,
eat your heart out,
1022
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:37,160
there's a new wall in town.
1023
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,000
McGuinness's Wall Of Death, everybody!
1024
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,580
CHEERING
1025
00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:47,020
No, don't encourage him.
1026
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:51,240
It doesn't make up for the fact that
you crashed a classic Lamborghini.
1027
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:52,935
Oh, are you still
going on about that?
1028
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,760
Well, it just goes to
show about life's ups and downs.
1029
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,400
You know, I can drive
an old Jag 200 mph
1030
00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,640
but I couldn't get up the wall.
1031
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,440
Paddy, you were the fastest
on the wall but you destroyed
1032
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,200
an iconic supercar.
1033
00:59:05,224 --> 00:59:08,420
Chris, you don't do
anything of note really, do you?
1034
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,480
But that's important too.
The world needs mediocrity.
1035
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,320
- You're a plodder.
- Wait there.
1036
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:15,880
You crashed a Lamborghini,
1037
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:17,820
you couldn't get it up. OK?
1038
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,800
And that's all for tonight.
We should definitely leave it there.
1039
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:22,960
Join us next week
1040
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,760
when we head off on a rental car
road trip around Cyprus.
1041
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,380
See you then! Goodnight!
1042
00:59:28,404 --> 00:59:31,596
