Top Gear is a British motoring show that airs on the BBC.
Doctor Who
There was a segment on Top Gear in which they tried to find the fastest intergalactic person around the track. There were three Doctor Who characters, a Dalek, Cyberman and the Sixth Doctor. The Dalek couldn't get in the car and as a result, went around exterminating everyone. The Cyberman went on to win with the fastest time.
