Ambitious But Rubbish was a series of compilation episodes of Series 21 and Series 22 made exclusively for BBC America, hosted by Richard Hammond.
This is a follow up to "Top Gear Top 41".
"On "Top Gear," hosts Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May often risk life and limb to perform feats for the show's viewers. Many of those endeavors are successful but not all are. With "Ambitious but Rubbish," Hammond presents clips from the main show that highlight some of their boldest stunt attempts -- a number of which didn't go as planned. Featured stunts include attempts to drive up an Icelandic volcano, cross the English Channel in homemade, amphibious vehicles and construct a V8-powered rocking chair."
"This compilation show presented by Richard Hammond takes a look back at Top Gear's most famous creations from the past 21 seasons. Relive many of the greatest and boldest endeavors in all their splendor, including the Train-Cars, James' Caravan Airship, the Hammerhead Eagle-i Thrust and the Hovervan."
