Top Gear Nepal Special

The team sets off on a high-altitude trek from Kathmandu, capital of Nepal, to the Forbidden City of Lo Manthang, a secretive kingdom perched high on the Tibetan plateau, on the far side of the Himalayas. On a five-day expedition through the highest mountains, deepest gorges and harshest terrain on the planet, Paddy McGuinness, Freddie Flintoff and Chris Harris battle huge river crossings, vast mudslides and dizzying mountain passes on a trip that would test even the hardiest new 4x4s to the limit. But Paddy, Freddie and Chris aren't crossing the Himalayas in new 4x4s. They're crossing the Himalayas in a small old Peugeot, a very compact old Renault, and Nepal's first (and only) home-built car

Top Gear Nepal Special airs on U&Dave HD at 9:20 AM, Tuesday 31 December. (Subtitles, audio description.)
