UPDATE 19 January: You can now view the series preview after the break. A photo gallery from Series 16 can also be seen on the Top Gear website.
Earlier in the month we brought you the news that Top Gear will be running two Christmas specials—the first on Tuesday 21 December, followed by another on Sunday 26 December. The BBC, via YouTube, now gives us a second preview of the two episodes. You can check it out after the break.

Well, the rumour from August has been proved correct; Top Gear has confirmed they will air two specials later this month. The first is scheduled for broadcast on 21 December and, at the time of writing, nothing official has been announced about its content. However, a second special, due to screen on Boxing Day, has been previewed over at the Top Gear website.
As the image above shows Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May have been somewhere very hot. That somewhere is the Middle East, taking in locations such as Kurdistan, Turkey, Syria, Jordan and Israel. The lads are en route to Bethlehem. Well, it is the right time of year for it, I guess. If you don’t mind a spoiler or two check out the BBC promo after the break. The source link below also has more details if you’d like.
As for the earlier special, it’s expected the lads will be back in the United States, most likely with the Top Gear USA crew, and Jalopnik had the scoop (spoilers) a short while back.
