Default Top Gear winter Olympics

Not sure if anyone has BBC World but this weekend Top Gear celebrated the winter olympics with such events as:

Biathalon - james drove an Audi Q7 and Jeremey a Volvo QC90 around the Lillehammer biathalon course. Had to do shooting standing up as well as lying in the back of the station wagons.

Off road speed slalom dance skating - competition between a RangerRover (James) and Jaguar (jeremy) on a frozen lake.

Speed Skating - Jaguar (Jeremy) vs a speed skater

Ski jump - a rocket powered mini on a ski jump

Hockey - two teams of 5 players driving Suzuki swifts with one giant puck. Full contact.

And an endurance test...who would break first Hammond or a Citreon C1 in the cold.

And The Stig does the ski jump on a snowmobile.

I can't find any videos of it yet but here's the link to the show description

A very entertaining hour of television.
