Where to Watch Top Gear in the UK

33 seasons. 218 episodes. Top Gear earns every one of them, and right now it's all streaming on Stan and beyond. Exactly the kind of show the streaming era was built for.

Top Gear has the format that countless shows have tried to copy since. This fast-paced and stunt-filled motor show tests whether cars, both mundane and extraordinary, live up to their manufacturers' claims. The long-running show travels to locations around the world, performing extreme stunts and challenges to see what the featured cars are capable of doing. The current hosts are Paddy Mcguinness, Chris Harris and Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff. Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 33 seasons (2002–2022), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

Reality TV sceptics are warned: Top Gear has converted more than a few people who were convinced the format wasn't for them. 33 series in and still appointment viewing.
