⚠ Spoiler alert This recap gives away what happens in this episode.
Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Jeremy Clarkson enjoys the sumptuous Rolls-Royce Phantom and Richard Hammond looks back at the 1960s Rover classic the P5. Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver cooks up an impressive time in the Reasonably Priced Car, and we decide the next General Election, using a group of politicians, an MG rally car and the Top Gear test track.
Our Take
The political party race is the kind of daft premise this show does well, even if the actual result matters less than the sight of MPs wobbling around the track. The Phantom review is pure comfort viewing, and Jamie Oliver turns out to be genuinely quick. A solid, funny hour that never overstays its welcome.
