In the summer of 2020, Top Gear presenters Freddie Flintoff and Paddy McGuinness hosted a six-episode best-of series, featuring the presenters narrating classic episodes of the show, called Total Wipeout: Freddie and Paddy Takeover. The show originally ran for six series, including a special winter-themed series, from 3 January 2009 until 31 December 2012. Total Wipeout was a licensed version of Wipeout, the Endemol show that originated in the United States in 2008, with the name slightly altered to avoid confusion with the BBC version of the earlier game show of the same name. These were gradually eliminated over four rounds until one contestant remained, who won a £10,000 cash prize and a trophy. These challenges were based in large pools of water or mud and generally involved large assault courses that contestants had to cross. In each episode, contestants competed in a series of challenges in an attempt to win £10,000. Total Wipeout is a British game show, hosted by Richard Hammond and Amanda Byram, which first aired on the BBC on 3 January 2009.
