1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

May not be a bad thing, maybe more than 6,7 or 8 episodes or once. A full dozen would be nice :-?

Is Top Gear in the UK broadcasted before the USA on BBCA?  I've become a fan over the winter and loved the Vietnam finale!

Well I agree if there is more episodes then its okay. But if its 2 series now a year and only 12 in a series, then we're no better off than 3 series and 8 episodes.

Unlikely as the Studio part is shot on the Wednesday before the Sunday and the the post production is not finished until Saturday. It was probably last seasons premier that was shown.
