Sunday's episode featured footage of presenter James May apparently flying an airship with a caravan beneath it across Britain.

The BBC is facing a new fakery row after it was revealed one of Top Gear's most spectacular stunts was 'set up'.
I was laughing my head off and rolling on the floor thinking it was real. They sure had me fooled.

Anyone who thought it was real must of been kidding themselves. Did no one wonder why all the cameras were already set up there? You could totally tell it was set up.

maybe not entirely faked

It was a change of scenery and location for May and the rest of the Top Gear crew who were in Cambridgeshire last month to film the segment for the show when the airship crash landed.

Strong winds blew the airship off course away from its cricket pitch destination into a farmer's field near the A428. Emergency services were on hand, but not needed following the crash from which May emerged unscathed.

The Bolivian special was brilliant.

You have to admire Clarkson.

Q. How can I enrage environmentalists even more?
A. I know, i'll drive a Range Rover through a rainforest and start cutting down trees.

I'd like to know what the camera men were driving ?
Oh and health and safety and insurance companies must have been bricking it.

Loved the program.

It was probably a Range Rover that they normally use.

How close was Jeremy close to dying - about 46 minutes in, a white Toyota Landcruiser is waived to stop as he passes that cliff.

Now I know some of you will shout FAKE, but come on something can still go wrong with the stunt.

One thing that makes it look like a stunt is where all the cameras where for that section. It's the main problem Top Gear has when it comes to stunts.

Maybe that is why there's only like six or seven episodes before its season ends because of all the planning that goes into it.

The rain forest one was fantastic, the only one that was better imo was the caravanning one lol

This week's is absolutely brilliant. Better than it has been in a long while.

And the postmen of Sheperd's Bush are going to be busy with complaints from road safety campaigners :p:

That was an awesome speed in the Veyron 431kph (267.810984 mph).

Didn't Tom Cruise drive that car faster than the stig? (He equaled it)
