In stark contrast to that, but in no way any less epic - in fact, considerably more epic - this Sunday's show sees our intrepid adventurers in a Top Gear special, as they drive across the spine of Africa.

In very unsuitable vehicles.

Jeremy and James take an old Lancia and Merc respectively, and Richard goes in his trusted friend Oliver, a 1964 Opel Kadett.

It's all typically Top Gear, and will also show that by driving three, ordinary two-wheel-drive cars across Botswana, you don't need a 4x4 to do the school run in.

So that's the Botswana Top Gear special, Sunday November 4t at 8pm on BBC Two.
R u getting money for advertising ???

I reckon he was Africa-Stig.
I know his face was covered, but having seen pics of him in t-shirts then his build was similar to that.

James May: To Richard... "You look like a gay cowboy and you (to Jeremy) look like a gay terrorist!"
