Season 15 has begun! I love this show, the Reliant Robin bit has my sides hurting with laughter.

erocker, that accent is actually how people from my area talk. Tig might aswell ;)
Also, that area is only like 10-20 miles from me..
The second best selling plastic car... after the corvette:D
I like the show. I also like how they use MPH and miles instead of KPM...easier for this dim wit!
They need to come over here more often...always a good show in the US.

Been eagerly awaiting the new episodes, I couldn't stop laughing at the Reliant Robin part, the show was great as always.
I want to get tickets for the show in Winter, I should have money for travel then, it would be awesome to get on the show :D

In my opinion there best prime time is when they had those crazy races like a car vs public transport and those cheap car challenge but season 15 episode 1 is okay.

Which is actually quite far when you're in a Reliant Robin. LOL

It's on BBC iPlayer (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00syxz4/Top_Gear_Series_15_Episode_1/)...
Do Americans get that service?

Currently BBC iPlayer TV programmes are available to play in the UK only, but all BBC iPlayer Radio programmes are available to you. Why?
If you are in the UK and see this message please read this advice.
Go to Radio channels home page
Nope.

Gay. Proxy it to trick it?!

I doubt streaming would work very well via proxy. That would only work with paid services having a lot of bandwidth, most likely.

I know. I wish sat companies would let you choose what shows you want to buy instead of these damn packages. BBC America, of course, is only in the most expensive package. It's not worth spending $20 a month extra just for 1 hour of programming a week. :(

Unless you like Eastenders. Which if you do, you'll lose all respect from everyone on the planet. Although the BBC does have some EPIC nature shows on sometimes (Blue Planet etc) but they don't come around too often.

My damn DTV DVR won't record this properly. It seems they aren't properly marking the new episodes, so it doesn't record. I'm gonna have to set my box to record ALL episodes, which means I'll have to go thru deletion hell every couple of days.
Oh well, I'll torrent this ep, then get my deletion finger ready for work. lol.

I was looking through some videos of the Top Gear Live show I went to in December and came across a video of the Reliant, a race around a 2 turn course, both turns being a sharp u-turn lol Guess what happened, a lot :D

LOL "This Thread is more than 472 days old"
So apparently season 18 would be featuring India!
There would be a December special first before the season proper in January next year...

Well I watched both seasons of TopGear US. And honestly, I loved it. The first episode was a little shaky, two showed much improvement, and by three I could feel the magic. Loved the truck episodes, Alaska and crossing Death Valley was great.
When Jeremy Clarkson spoke the intro for Forza 4 I orgasmd in my pantalones.
Also, read his books. They're awesome.
