Top Gear

Top Gear is returning to the BBC after four years off the air. The network confirmed at the Edinburgh TV Festival that work is underway on a new season of the iconic motoring series, though details remain limited. Comedian Jimmy Carr is reportedly in talks to host the reboot, alongside potential co-host Joe Marler, a former rugby player who appeared on The Celebrity Traitors. The series, which last aired in December 2022, has historically been produced by BBC Studios and filmed at various UK locations including Dunsfold Aerodrome in Surrey. The BBC has not yet announced a production timeline, crew positions, or premiere date for the revived series.
