Trivia[]
- As of 2019, this is the highest episode count reached by any series of Top Gear, beaten by the trio only once they had moved to Amazon Prime for The Grand Tour.
- The specific day in which Richard Hammond took part in the Pamplona Bull Run at the San Fermin festival was the fourth day on the 10th of July, the same date in which Series 6, Episode 7 aired in the UK. This is because the bulls used on that day were black and brown.
- Interestingly, these bulls were Miura bulls, stemming from the same bloodline as the bull which gave its namesake to Lamborghini's first supercar. This could have been unintentional, as it is not mentioned in the episode.
