Details are in on the first episode of the new-look Top Gear, which is fast-tracked to BBC Knowledge at 8:30pm on Monday.
Celebrity guests are actor Jesse Eisenberg and celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay.
In the first show of the new series, Chris Evans takes the Dodge Viper ACR to the home of Top Gun in Nevada to battle Sabine Schmitz in a Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Matt LeBlanc tackles wildest Morocco in Somerset’s finest off-roader, the Ariel Nomad. Back on British soil, Evans and LeBlanc take a rather soggy road trip to Blackpool in a pair of roofless Reliant three-wheelers, whereupon they are tasked with defending the honour of their nations in a series of gruelling UK-versus-USA challenges.
Meanwhile, here’s what will feature on Extra Gear, directly afterwards.
Presented by Rory Reid and Chris Harris, Extra Gear will bring viewers half an hour of exclusive new footage, interviews, and specially recorded films. Rory and Chris will also be joined by a special guest from the celebrity or motoring world to reflect on that week’s episode of Top Gear. Extra Gear will air each week after Top Gear on BBC Knowledge.

Think I’m looking forward to the Extra Gear more than the main program. Interesting that the BBC cut the behind the scenes stuff for Doctor Who years ago sighting cost savings, guess they are throwing all they can at the revamped show.
