BBC Worldwide launches Top Gear Facebook app

BBC Worldwide has launched a Top Gear virtual Facebook app, to coincide with the start of auto show’s latest series. 

‘The Stig’ app, which can be found at Facebook/TheStig, will let users imitate the show’s test car driver by selecting a picture of themselves and clicking to have it digitally appear inside the driver’s helmet – with the resulting image shareable on the social network.

Top Gear Series 21 started airing last night on BBC Two and BBC Two HD.
