See Top Gear are due to be re-enacting some of the classic shots from the Italian Job? Not quite Turin, but this time in the sewers in Belfast!

A spokesperson for the BBC show said presenters Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May hoped to film the race through the city's new six-mile sewer network in the coming weeks.

In past shows, the three have raced to the North Pole, driven across the African continent and sailed cars across the English Channel, however, it is the first time they have raced underground.

The original scene sees a gang led by Charlie Croker, played by Caine, hatch a plan to steal $4m in gold destined for banks in Turin before making their getaway in three Mini Coopers.

Sounds like fun. Had heard they were going to somehow re-enact other scenes from the film as well, though JC's trip through a shopping centre in that Ford Fiesta being chased by a Corvette C7 covered some of that ground me thinks
