TOP Gear star Jeremy Clarkson is to deliver a masterclass to this year's Edinburgh International Television Festival.
The presenter is set to be officially unveiled as one of the keynote speakers today.
He is expected to be joined by executive producer Andy Wilman to discuss just why Top Gear remains the highest rating programme on BBC 2.
They are also expected to talk about a recent stunt where F1 legend Michael Schumacher was jokingly unveiled as the mystery "Stig" test driver. The hoax earlier this month saw 7.1 million viewers tune into the hour-long show.
Top Gear, which describes itself as the world's greatest car show, is presented by Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May.
