Top Gear back on BBC

Postby Woodlouse2002 » Sun Nov 05, 2006 12:30 pm

Seems like the BBC have started showing the Best of Top Gear again. Presumably to preceed the next series.

The biathlon was brilliant as always! Though the real star of that show was the Mini! and of course Hammond's safety wall.....  ;D

You doubt the font of all that we ever need to know. You will be saying that the Daily Sport is not a newspaper next  >:(

Not when compared to the Daily Star! ;D


Shame you can't read German (or maybe you can) I could send you a copy of the BILD. Now that is the Sun, The Mirror and the Daily Sport rolled into one.

I can well believe it. When I was in Germany I could easily see a well to do foreigner buying Playboy when he really intended to get the TV Times. ;D

Edit: You mean to say that people actually buy that sort of newspaper for reading?!

I'm confused.  ??? Woody says they're showing a 'best of' collection. Someone else says it isn't on yet.
It was on in the U.S. about a year or so back on BBCAm or Discovery Science(don't remember which) for 1 season. It hasn't been shown since, at least not on any network I can find.

The current series is on hold until Hamster is back on his feet. Anything else that is being shown is a repeat.
