In this special Clarkson, Hammond and May don’t just buy three knackered old lorries and drive miles through the beautiful landscapes of Burma. Oh dear no. They actually have to use their lorries to do something useful. They have to build a real, use able bridge over the River Kwai. On their way to the river they almost bring down Burma’s power supply, encounter the world’s least relaxing truck stop, race around the streets of a deserted capital, saddle up a trio of unhelpful horses and attend a completely deranged party.

VIBE

A rollicking, often chaotic journey filled with signature banter and mishaps. It's an adventurous road trip through stunning landscapes, punctuated by engineering challenges and laugh-out-loud moments, all delivered with a distinctly British, irreverent charm. Expect a blend of mechanical mayhem and scenic wonder.
