JayStorm 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2005 The best damn show on british terrestrial television. It's a really good show with top guests and pesenters: Jeremy Clarkson and Mark webber for example. I watched it, his time was much better than it looked. JS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JayStorm 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2005 Webber was around 2 seconds behind Damon although Webber did his time in the wet and so he had 4 seconds taken off, awarding him with the best time. JS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didnt know Davina McCall had ever been involved with MTV or that they ever had F1 coverage though... (think she said something about Simtek). So good this week I watched both showings we get here for once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JayStorm 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2005 Yeah, BBC 2 sure is a classic channel, even if Top Gear appears to be the only decent show on it. lol I have to say though, last episode was great. JS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JayStorm 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2005 I've just been watching the last in the series, although it will be back in the autumn apparently. It was quite good as James May made up a new theme tune for the show using car-engine sounds. JS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

demonhorse 0 Report post Posted August 9, 2005 This was the show that I saw on Aug 3rd and I'm wondering they kept saying that they were switching back and forth from the US version to the UK version and kept telling the conversion of quid to US dollars is this what you get also?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> nah we dont... we get pure UK version all the way. Do the conversions pop up on screen or are there little extra scenes? I'm guessing the bits about UK motoring news (and Hammond's maps) etc get cut for these parts, sort of customising the show for whichever country it's being shown in.
