Calling all petrol heads ... take a peak at Top Gear!
Carol Haynes:
If you are in the UK you probably watch Top Gear - if you live elsewhere you probably don't ('cos you can't).
Don't get me wrong my take on cars is that they get you from A to B and don't cost a fortune to buy, maintain or run - and when something needs fixing I GALMI !!!
However, Top Gear is a favourite programme of mine mainly because it is very funny testosterone driven silliness that doesn't take itslef at all seriously. I particularly enjoy the daft challenges - like the first epsiode let's make a convertable and then see if they survive in a car wash, and last week (ep 2) canoe vs. 4 wheel drive in Iceland.
Interested - well now the world can watch it 'cos the latest series is availble on a week by week basis via the BBC website ...

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I love this program (as almost all of my friends do). But it isn't available here, and "ilegally" downloading it from the internet is a bit of a hasle.
This is fantastic news! :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:
Carol Haynes:
Don't forget URLSnooper & Streambox if you prefer to batch download and watch offline. They are quite big files (~90Mb) as the progs are 1 hour in length. For RealMedia they aren't bad quality either.
Also don't forget - the BBC don't leave these things online for long (usually just a couple of weeks at the most).
jgpaiva:
Unfortunately BBC Two video content is only available to users within the UK. We're sorry for any disappointment.
