Top Gear - Middle East Special

[johnwag]

i just finished watching the Top Gear Middle East Special that aired earlier tonight on the BBC.

The episode is an extra long (1 hour, 16 minutes) "Middle East" edition, where Jeremy, Richard and James become the 3 wise men. They must choose a 2 seat convertible sports car to cross the desert and arrive in Bethlehem, where they will give gifts to the baby Jesus.
The starting point is unknown and an MX5 is involved. They find their way through a few different countries that are currently involved in very serious military and political affairs, yet manage to see the beauty in what is one of the most historical parts of the world.

Not bad but not one of the best specials IMO, has nothing on Vietnam or the Polar editions.
