[QUOTE=Memobot;23039202]People complained about how the £2million budget was too much as they went over it by a considerable amount, then it was revealed that through merchandise they make £20million profit. They gave back the shows cost two fold to the BBC. I love this show :D[/QUOTE] I'm a proud owner of a stig mug.
Does anyone know which episode it was where they went on some sort of challange and James May got a really uncomfortable supercar?

^Many thanks! ~Heavy.
This Sundays episode sounds awesome! [quote]Jeremy, Richard and James are challenged to build compact and cool motorhomes for a camping holiday in the West Country.[/quote] I love these types of challenges.

But they can't be entertaining in the US. They have to be Factual, no entertainment allowed. Otherwise men in suits and Black Helicopters will take them away.

It's shows like this that makes me wish I had television.
Anyone know when the new episodes are going to show in the US on BBC?

BBC channels in the UK don't have commercials. They're funded by a TV licensing fee here, not by any advertising revenue.

Oh God! The trailer for the motorhome challenge episode! Clarkson makes his 12ft tall. He overtakes a truck and it starts weaving, nearly hitting the truck!

I think BBC America does, which was what I was referring to. Commercials on TV here in America are ridiculous, You get 5 to 9 minutes of your TV show, with 5 Minutes of commercials, until the show is over, a 90 Minute movie on FX takes about 2 and a half hours to watch

It's the reason I stopped watching TV, I don't even bother anymore, I just stick with watching it all on the internet, commercial free and when I choose
I love their specials, like Bolivia and Vietnam.
Best show ever. I have seen every single episode and I can't wait for the episode tomorrow where they make their own caravans. I'm American and I love how they just rip on American's for everything. Clarkson is hilarious with the remarks he makes. Really the 3 guys make the show what it is. Thank god that one bigger guy from the first season left and James May took his place. There is no way in hell top gear would be as popular as it is today if that bigger guy was still in it. He was sooo boring. As far as my favorite episode. The muscle car american episode was pretty good. The limo episode was hilarious. Pretty much any episode where they have to make something or deal with the public like mini-cabbing is hilarious.

It keeps the tv schedule organised. Adverts are still bad enough that I resort to the internet myself anyway though.
This is fucking brilliant so far. Best episode in a while.
Yeah, this is hilarious. :v:
Knew that was coming as soon as they saw the cliff.
That was a great episode.
That was brilliant.
Great episode, wasn't surprised on what Hammond got though, seeing as he is a fan of them...
