As frequent readers know, our favourite TV at The Lowdown Blog is BBC’s Top Gear. Taken at face value, it’s a show about cars and the people who drive them. Really, it’s about three middle-aged men (and a formerly anonymous racing driver) who act like school kids, drive really fast, say whatever they feel like and have a good time doing it. For whatever reason, the iconic news show 60 Minutes went over to England to profile the show and its hosts. After the jump, we have the full 60 Minutes story on Top Gear.

And here are the 60 Minutes Overtime bonus clips from this story.

There is also a video on the 60 Minutes website that looks at great Top Gear footage that didn’t make the final cut of the story. Click here to watch it.
