While Jeremy Clarkson and James May roll into Sydney for their  Top Gear Festival this weekend, BBC Knowledge will be screening the first of the two-part Top Gear special.
On this epic African journey, the boys are searching for the definitive source of the River Nile. Along the way they encounter crocodile infested rivers, suspension snapping terrain and the world’s worst traffic jam.
Top Gear Special – Part One
Sunday March 10 at 7:30pm on BBC Knowledge
In the first of a two-part Top Gear special, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are in Africa with a simple mission – to find the definitive source of the Nile. Over the years many explorers claim to have already done just that, but the Top Gear trio believe that they can do better by travelling further and faster than any exploration team in history using only grit, ingenuity and three ageing estate cars.
Top Gear Special – Part Two
Sunday March 17 at 7:30pm on BBC Knowledge
In the second part of the Top Gear special, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May continue their epic African odyssey. Having survived insane traffic, lethal mud slides and some distinctly dubious map reading, the trio and their ailing estate cars reach the climax of their quest to find the definitive source of the Nile.

Saw a great show today on Top Gear new Range Rover v driverless tuck in Nevada RR won 😀
The season has been short but sweet, and so good it’s on BBC Knowledge just a week after the UK with minimal ads. Plus with the encore screenings you get to see it when you want to!
I guess there is no word on FTA yet, really hope that Nine passes them on to SBS.
It’s so refreshing watching this show as it’s supposed to be seen, i.e. not hacked to pieces and filled with commercial breaks. I’m happy to pay to watch shows when they are treated in this manner and would love to see more overseas content shown on Foxtel first.
