Top Gear

[den]

BBC America will start showing Top Gear on Aug 20. Now the Yanks can see whole shows and not little segments on You Tube.

I wonder what series they will start with. The first one we saw here had the Chrysler vs Jaguar vs Monaro segment.

I used to watch the original Top Gear on BBC World, before Austar decided I'd prefer Sky News instead and changed their Basic line-up. (I didn't, so I cancelled the account.)

I remember one one ep they reviewed the pre-Monaro Commadore HSV and said some not-nice things about it before having a blast on the test track. Very much like they did with the Monaro.

If you know where to look, all of the "new format" episodes are available for torrent download (there's one big 36.6GB file that has all the "new format" episodes up to and including Season 8, and season 9 is available in a separate 2.5GB file). A few of the "old format" episodes are also available for torrent download (The 1989 season was the oldest I saw listed).

Hmm... one wonders where to look... maybe an email would reveal it? I'd hate to cause Batty to be guilty of violating the LJ TOS.

My email is this username at hotmail. ;)

Have the best
