S1-S13 : Normal Intros S13- S22: 𝙰 𝚏𝚊𝚝 𝚖𝚊𝚗 𝚐𝚎𝚝𝚜 𝚖𝚞𝚛𝚍𝚎𝚛𝚎𝚍

24:09 I WEAR A HAT RICHARD WEARS A HAT AND JAMES WEARS A HAT

Tonight on Bottom Gear, I drive a silent electric car, Richard uses a fookin toilet And James commits arson.

S1-S12 = sensible intros. S13-S22=LOL.

Jeremy slowly descends into madness*

Tonight James stays at home Richard stays at home And I stay at home

Series 1 - Series 12 : Sensible intros. Series 13 - 22 : *I wear a hat*

It was pretty depressing to hear Hammond do the intro to the last episode.

The scary thing is that I remember all of these....

you know its a big episode when the intro is half an hour long

In the very first episode he says at the end of the series no one will have a recording contract. He proved to be very right 13 years and 21 seasons later.

If I had a nickel for every intro where it was just Jeremy talking about their hats, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

29:37 : I move my eyes Richard vandalizes a road And James says “cow”

I love how blunt these are. We save the entire world, James throws a chair over a hedge, And a F A T M A N G E T S M U R D E R E D

Not only did you have most every humorous intro ever, but you even listed which series and episode it is from. Two very massive hat tips to you sir!

30:51 TONIGHT I get fired Richard quits And James also quits

*Tonight on top gear I commit warcrimes in the middle east* *Richard Hammond crashes another expensive car and is in intensive care* *And James breaks into an old womans home*

3:15 the first appearance of James May. 6:08 the Indestructible Hilux. 11:16 Jezza in an Ariel Atom. 15:21 Radio Station.

tonight on... *G E A R*

28:51 the best introduction for may ever

I see three people slowly built a British television cultural masterpiece, and presented it gloriously to the whole world. We are ever more greatful to them

I decided to throw ChatGPT at one of these intros and this is what it came up with: [Opening credits roll with energetic music playing] Clarkson (with his signature enthusiasm): "TONIGHT! I attempt to parallel park a double-decker bus!" [Cut to a scene of Clarkson nervously maneuvering a massive bus between two cars, narrowly avoiding disaster] Clarkson: "Richard competes in a lawn mower drag race!" [Cut to Hammond in a racing helmet, revving up a souped-up lawn mower on a grassy track] Clarkson: "And James attempts to set the world record for the slowest lap in a supercar!" [Cut to James May cautiously navigating a sleek supercar at a snail's pace on a racetrack, with tire squeals and engine roars in the background] [The Top Gear logo appears on the screen, and the crowd erupts with laughter and cheers as the episode begins.]

at 21:00 ( s12e6 ) Jeremy lost his voice during the studio shoot and in the next episode you can hear Jeremy's voice is still recovering.

I randomly skipped and landed at 13:42 and just heard Clarkson say: I developed a sudden urge to marry my cousin

S1-S12: Something Decent S13-S22: *James Says ow ow ow ow*

Watching over 30 minutes of intros like this makes you realize something profound: They wear a lot of hats. And some with things on them.

Tonight on top gear: I move my eyes Richard vandalizes a road and James says cow "cow!" Lol

26:44 you can nearly hear him laugh 😂

0:11 "And at the end of the series no-one will have a recording licence". He half guessed what would happened to him

TONIGHT JAMES ASKS A GIRL FOR A FAVOUR ... "No..."

27:31 oh god..

25:01 this is by far the best one

*Looking at the comments* "These intros can't be that insane right?" *Gets to mid-season 12 and there's still 10 minutes left* "Yeah I'm concerned now..."

Season One: How fast can the new Zonda go around our track? Season Eighteen: I breathe oxygen

25:11 Tonight, our tracks are a bit foggy, a man eats a snack and we move about in a caravan. Welcome back to Bottom Gear m8s

Tonight on Bo'om Gear: I drive an Electric Car™ Hammond using a *fokin'* toilet And James commits *arson*

I love how even the more factual ones of the early seasons are more than occasionally just described in the most absurd way possible. Or just in the most literal way possible.

24:10 Tonight I wear a hat Richard wears a hat And James wears a hat Now that's some good old quality content

Tonight! I point at a thing Richard walks through a shop And James has some bananas HILARIOUSEST INTRO EVER!!!

25:20 Tonight Richards wears a blue hat James wears a different hat And I wear a hat with things on it

Tonight: I breathe in, Richard closes his eyes and James presses a button. I don't think you can get any vaguer.

Man this is one action-packed Episode of Top Gear

I like how in the later seasons they occasionally attempt to do a serious, factual intro and then decide to go back to insanity the next episode

10:20 I met that blind man. He came to my primary school to do some talk about being blind. I think his name was Billy Baxter. He said he lost his sight while riding a motorbike while in the army (can't remember if it was during a military operation or something). And yes, when it came to the questions, he must've been asked "What can you see?" and "Do you just see black?" about five times.

It's surreal seeing all these old cars being talked about as new cars and classics being seen as average second-handers

James asks girl for a favor Girl: noooooooo

"Welcome back to Bottom Gear, mates"

Tonight, James falls out of a boat I have a fight with a gear lever And.. HELLO! Oh dear this is a bit embarrassing

This show went from slightly odd to just insane

20:51 Probably my favourite line!

27:00 is the best one hands down

"Tonight, we save the entire world" *Shows a clip of a land rover towing a green house*

for me one of the most memorable is "a dog looks over a wall, we drive some chairs, and the stig does a skid in a supercharged jag."

I like how they went from giving actual info about the show to just absolutely meaning less things in the intro. That's what made it the best motoring show in the world, quite literally. It was more entertaining then informative yet it was still fundamentally a car show.

23:18 was when they gave up lol

WELCOME BACK TO BOTTOM GEAR MATES...

I love how these get progressively more insane as the series goes on

Mildly disappointed that you didn’t include the bottom gear intros.

I like the part when Jeremey says “Tonight”

I wana go to bed but the night will not end.

22:42 when james and jeremy exit the toilet is it concerning that james is wiping his mouth

I've never seen this show, only the memes, but I think that the reasonably priced car is a key component in the ultimate plot

27:28 R a i k k o n e n

24:10 has to be the best one of them all

Series 1-13:normal intros Series 14-22:i wear a hat

13:41 Holy shit he's way ahead of the time with that joke

That is one action-packed episode of Top Gear!

22:30 - my absolute favourite

Seems like a very packed episode

17:50 James May: "And now the news. And I'm afraid we start with an apology... we are unable to bring you Jeremy's road test of a Ferrari on the moon."

27:31 when you realise Chris Evans is replacing you

Episode 1: i put two supercars head to head, hammond tries to beat a speed camera Episode 3: GRANNY'S DOING DONUTS

Tonight on top gear.... We race james' old cars Richard eats a sandwich and Howtobasic drives our reasonably priced car

You can start to hear when Clarkson's health start deteriorating.

9:27 by God these were some good times to be a car enthusiast

Nobody: The trio: I wEAr a hAt

My favorite is: Hammond forgets the abbreviation for America. Rich: USB!

earlier season intro: * relatively normal * later season intro: I commit tax fraud. Hammond blows up a hospital. And James has a heart-attack and fucking dies.

"Tonight! I wear a hat! James wears a hat! And Richard is behind a low wall."

I know it’s late but this must be a very long episode

"Tonight, I blow up Malaysia in a reasonably priced car!"

21:01 Well that didn't age well

Oh man wanna rewatch pretty much all of them...

I love the slow descent into madness as the episodes go by

tonight I drink water James breathes oxygen and Richard looks at a tree

22:06 The slowest man in the world falls asleep. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

23:07 That Gallardo is one of my favorite cars.

19:26 They reversed the colors on the cars.

Last seasons intros are as accurate as Meme review ratings.

18:35 They even made Richard crashing cars jokes back then

I love Top Gear. This is so great. I just wish I'd lived in England when these aired. Thanks.

i never bored to watch this special videos from the intros on top gear =)

Me: I can listen to music while I study, I’ll be fine! My brain: 30:11

S13 e6 22:24 is where it finally loses all sensible meaning and becomes completely abstract I wear some goggles Richard falls down a small slope And james says hello to a man

watching this with my dad on Sunday night at 8pm on bbc with beans on toast was one of the happiest moments of my life

“Have you ever put toothpaste on your testicles?” BEST LINE EVER!

At around season 14, the intros start becoming a "Top Gear Moments without Context" compilation.

The ultimate episode
