# Stars in Fast Cars

Stars in Fast Cars is a motoring-themed celebrity game show, in which celebrities compete in "a series of Wacky Races-esque events to become the fastest star-in-a-car." The series was first broadcast on BBC Three, in 2005, and repeated on BBC One in 2006.
Among some of the more notable moments were Car Skittles; a stunt where the guests had to drive on to the back of a moving lorry, before letting them all drive a Ferrari – with a bathtub of water attached to the back which they were not allowed to spill. They were asked to race in a variety of motor-esque machines, from the aforementioned armchairs to Formula 1 cars.
The final round of each show, between the two top-ranking guests, features the use of the car cannon in attempts to hit various things.
The show originated as a one-off special of the popular BBC Two show, Top Gear, and was produced, as were a number of other television specials, in aid of charity Comic Relief for Sport Relief in 2004. It was later turned into a series, presented by Dougie Anderson.
