Fans also get to see Evans feeling a little queasy in California and LeBlanc “driving” a Reliant three-wheel car from London to Blackpool – a seaside town in the north of England.

LeBlanc, who starred as Joey Tribbiani on the NBC sitcom “Friends,” is the first non-British star to host the show in its 39-year history.

One of the globe’s most popular programs, “Top Gear” has won a huge following with its mix of car tips, driving stunts and humourous banter.

The show’s revamp became necessary after former host Jeremy Clarkson left the program amid a scandal.
