Richard Hammond will be hosting a Top Gear special on November 2nd October 29th that will look back on the past 50 years of James Bond.

The Guardian is reporting that Clarkson, Hammond, and May have signed deals that ensures Top Gear will at least be on the air for three more years. Woo hoo! :)

UPDATE: Or not?

UPDATE #2: The contracts seem to be correct — Clarkson may have been referring to something else in the article being wrong.

On Friday, Jeremy and Richard were in a helicopter flying over Auckland Harbour in New Zealand when a seagull hit the helicopter’s rotor blade. They made an emergency landing nearby and luckily everyone is okay.
