The second series of the relaunched motoring show Top Gear was aired in 2003 and consisted of 10 episodes, beginning on 11 May and concluding on 20 July. The series was subsequently followed the week after it ended, with a "Best Of Top Gear" episode on 27 July, which charted the best moments from Series 1 and 2. It was the first series to feature James May as part of the hosting line-up, after motoring enthusiast Jason Dawe was axed following the previous series. Both Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond remained as part of the hosting line-up, alongside "The Stig" who was now credited as a presenter of the show.
