I found this after 'just' discovering Google Video - but check this out!

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2...2748&q=top+Gear

The very first episode (in its entirety) of Top Gear - With William Woolard!!! (if you remember him, you should now be realising just how old you are - this was 16 years ago! *laughing*

Best bit though - skip to the last clip (bottom RHS picture) and watch a young Tiff Needel drive a GrpA cosworth! That looks like hard work! *surprised*

oh - If you're on BB - just download the whole thing, as the Cosworth bit might be a bit jittery as it's buffering.

That is not the first ever top gear. It started in 1978 and was well established when that was made. Interesting though..

I was thinking the same thing Tom. Mind you he does not even introduce the show with welcome back to the new series or anything like that so who knows.
