19 new pictures of what to expect in Northumberland episode of Top Gear

Sunday night’s episode of popular TV series Top Gear features a Northumberland backdrop.

Presenters Freddie Flintoff, Chris Harris and Paddy McGuinness seek to reinvent the great British camping holiday with the help of three new electric cars and three very small caravans.

They filmed it in May at locations including Berwick’s Seaview Caravan Club site, Bamburgh, Seahouses, Kirkhale Farm and the upper Coquet Valley.

The programme synopsis reveals: ‘The presenters each chose their favourite small, perfectly formed ‘micro-caravan’ to team with a state-of-the-art electric car, and set off for a peaceful getaway in the beautiful wilds of Northumberland. A peaceful getaway that somehow ended up including a Zorb-ball hillclimb… and a chilli-eating ‘hot lap’ challenge. Obviously.’
