Top Gear: Apocalypse (2010): cast, story & where to watch

Released in 2010, Top Gear: Apocalypse is an action, comedy and documentary film directed by Phil Churchward, running about 74 minutes. “Top Gear look at motoring in the post-apocalyptic world” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Just what will motoring be like in a post apocalyptic world that's been blown to bits by nuclear bombs or a massive comet? It's a burning question that's on literally nobody's mind, and we give you all the answers in this brand new, incredibly cheerful Top Gear DVD. Embarking on a terrifying journey into the future, we show you how to drive to work in the perpetual darkness of a Nuclear Winter, how to make motor sport exciting when there's only two racing drivers left alive, and, in a world where all cars are bristling with weapons, how to survive the savage, explosive fury of a Doomsday M.O.T test. And amongst all the nuclear carnage, we also tackle the ultimate petrolhead's dilemma - what cars would you take for a final drive if there was only one barrel of petrol left on the planet? The explosions are huge, the cars are superb, so relax and enjoy. PS. This frightening vision of a post nuclear world is backed up by top scientists, in case you think it's us just cocking about.

Who’s in it. Top Gear: Apocalypse stars Richard Hammond as Himself and James May as Himself.
