"To hear is not always to understand" - Autonomy 2009

Jeremy Clarkson and his fellow Top Gear presenters scored a Christmas hit on Sunday 27 December with their a one-off show from Bolivia. The special edition of the BBC2 programme was the most-watched on the day, winning a 28.1% audience share with 6.4m viewers.
