Freddie Flintoff. Chris Harris. Paddy McGuinness. Three men with valid driving licences, and a strange willingness to endure great suffering and embarrassment in the name of testing cars. And it’s that willingness this DVD celebrates, as it brings together some of the very best bits from Chris, Freddie and Paddy’s Top Gear tenure so far. And by ‘best bits’ of course we mean ‘most painful bits’. Wince as the boys tackle a house-high Wall Of Death in their insurance write-offs. Sweat as they endure the broiling heat of Ethiopia in their first cars. Cover your eyes as Freddie bungee-jumps a Rover Metro off a massive dam. Feel slightly sorry as Chris gets pelted with golf balls while wearing a dinosaur costume. All that, plus Top Gear’s epic race between a McLaren Speedtail and fighter jet, a tribute to Colin McRae, a whole load of electric shocks, and all the very best crashes from the last few series. Because, let’s be honest, there were plenty to choose from...

Three-nil down in a four match series and with his team in disarray, Brian Charles Lara knew he had to do something special in the final test of England’s 2004 tour of the West Indies. Something that would let the world know there was still some pride left in Caribbean cricket. He had to take back his world record. Returning to Antigua, scene of Lara’s 375 against England a decade before, the West Indies captain was on a mission: to reclaim the highest individual test score he’d lost when Australia’s Matthew Hayden scored 380 against Zimbabwe in 2003. This DVD tells the full story of how Lara hit back at his critics (and England’s feared pace attack) to not only surpass Hayden, but go on to become the first man in history to register a test score of 400. A fitting tribute to arguably the world’s greatest batsman, this is a must for all cricket fans.
