They're not technically a scripted show. What they have is a general game plan about what should happen in the show and in what order (i.e. a car will come up in the news section bit and they will talk about it, or have an argument around the cool wall), but they just say what they want in regards to the subject.
Even at times they go against the script and say their own views, which is what keeps it so good. Yes they occasionally get a slap on the wrist, but everyone just takes it in their stride that it is what topgear is all about.
