Stanley Kubrick's classic black comedy about a group of war-eager military men who plan a nuclear apocalypse is both funny and frightening - and seems as relevant today as ever. Through a series of military and political accidents, two psychotic generals - U.S. Air Force Commander Jack D.

Ripper (Sterling Hayden) and Joint Chief of Staff "Buck" Turgidson (George C. Scott) - trigger an ingenious, irrevocable scheme to attack Russia's strategic targets with nuclear bombs. The brains behind the scheme belong to Dr Strangelove (Peter Sellers), a wheelchair-bound nuclear scientist who has bizarre ideas about man's future. The President (also Sellers) is helpless to stop the bombers, as is Captain Mandrake (Sellers once again). Dr. Sstrangelove is truly a classic film.

"2003 has been the best year for new cars - ever! In this video, I put the best of the best to the test. But I'm not interested in reliability, fuel consumption or even cup holders. This is all about finding the car of the year that put the biggest smile on my face...It's all about the excitement...

So I put the Bentley Continental GT head to head against the Rolls Royce Phantom in a heavy metal drag race. I pitch the Mitsubishi Evo VIII against it old enemy - the Subaru Impreza Sti. I choose the best road car you can use on a track and the contenders are the lotus Elise, the Vauxhall VX220 Turbo and the new TVR350C. There's a supercar showdown between the Pagani Zonda and the Koenigsegg. And I throw down the gauntlet to the Lamborghini Gallardo, the Aston Martin DB7 GT, the Porsche GT3 an many more. I also found time to put a new spin on the art of caravan towing - flipping one on its roof and hooking it up to a super fast Overfinch Range Rover. In fact, I had so much fun...I'm still smiling now. I'm sure you will too." Enjoy - Jeremy Clarkson.

Which is faster round a race track? A Porsche 911 or the fearsome Yamaha R1? Which would you rather have? A Ferrari 360 Modena or the new Aston Martin DB7 Vantage? Which is the best road going rocketship? The BMW M5 with Tiff Needell at the wheel? Or my Jaguar XJR which uses a tank for back up?

Then there's the new breed of Japanese super tech cars. Which is best, the Evo6 or the 22b? And can the Japanese silicone wizardry beat European style? And there's more. Grimace a Hyundai what it's like to be eaten, and marvel at the gigantic Lamborghini LM002 as it wreaks havoc with London's traffic. And then settle back for the greatest race Silverstone has ever seen. Johnny Herbert in his Stewart Ford and Colin McRae in his full rally spec Focus versus Clarkson in a Cougar!

As the name suggests, 'Top Gear: Best Of British' is a celebration of all manifestations of Finnish folk dancing from the haunting raisikipi and the delicate kestipilla to the bewitching majesty of the runkiapunkipilliapu in all its many forms. Not really.

Best Of British is actually a look back at some of Top Gear's finest encounters with the very best of British cars. And sometimes the very worst. Within this lavishly crafted plastic box you will find over three hours of the great British motor cars and mucking about including an Aston DB9 racing a train to the south of France, a celebration of the Jensen Interceptor, a 1949-style battle between a Jaguar XK120, a Vincent Black Shadow motorcycle and a steam train, and the infamous British Leyland challenge. There's also a toppling Reliant, a roaring Eurofighter, a tiny Peel P50, an even tinier Clarkson P45, a Mini racing a bobsleigh, and the presenters' flag-waving celebration of all that is great about car-building in Blighty, ending with a spectacular, tear-jerking line-up of British-made metal on The Mall. This video is best watched whilst wearing Union Jack underpants.
