more Top Gear (Sun, 8pm, BBC2)Lock up your Mexicans/Indians/gay people: the ‘Top Gear’ boys are back. By this stage in the show’s career (this is the start of series 19) you’ll already have decided if you find Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard ‘The Hamster’ Hammond deliciously politically incorrect company, a bit like the funniest bloke in the golf club who always has the best dirty jokes, or a trio of boorish man-children. To kick off a new run, Clarkson tries to build a car smaller than even the famous Peel P50, and then has an even tougher challenge when he runs it past the entrepreneurs from ‘Dragon’s Den’. May drives the Bentley Continental GT Speed and Hammond the Pagani Huayra hypercar. The Stig will take that one for a spin, and then it’s over to this week’s Star In A Reasonably Priced Car: ‘Homeland’ hot property Damian Lewis.
