    Summary: 
    "I was Top Gear's script editor for 13 years and all 22 series. I basically used to check spelling and think of stupid gag. It didn't feel like something you should get paid for. From the disastrous pilot show of 2002 to the sudden and unexpected ending in 2015, it was quite a rollercoaster ride. We crossed continents, we made space ships, we bobbed across the world's busiest shipping lane in a pick-up truck. We also got chased by an angry mob, repeatedly sparked fury in newspapers, and almost killed one of our presenters. I realised that I had quite a few stories to tell from behind the scenes on the show. I decided I should write down some of these stories. So I have."--From the author. Richard Porter worked alongside Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May for 13 years as writer and script editor for the BBC Television series Top Gear.
