Top Gear Shoots Christmas Special Episode In Bethlehem

Hammond, Clarkson and May will play the role of The Three Kings in the Top Gear episode dedicated to this year’s Christmas. The three hosts of the famous TV show are already shooting in Middle East.

The Top Gear team prepares a huge surprise to their fans, now that the Winter Holidays are near. The heroes of the TV show, James May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond are shooting a new episode in the Middle East, trying to remake the route of the Magi.

BBC confirmed the producers’ intention to shoot a Christmas episode called “In search of The Baby Jesus.” Although the Bible doesn’t give too many details about the route of the Three Kings, the only information is that they were coming from East, so the producers have tried to remake the route as close as possible.

So, Clarkson, May and Hammond will start from Irak, along Eufrat river, to Syria and then Jordan, for then to stop in Israel, to find Bethlehem. Of course, we will only see the final route when the show will be on the screens of our TV sets, with this special episode dedicated to the holidays.

In order to drive around the sensible-enough area, the hosts of the most popular automotive TV show in the world, will have three famous roadster, that broke a lot of hearts some years ago. We are talking about Fiat Barchetta, Mazda MX-5 and BMW Z3.
