finalgear is the name of the site that caters for fans of fifth gear and top gear,it is a quite a good community to. i download all the episodes from there and read the reviews etc on each episode to know if its worth downloading(which it always is) . dont even bother with watching sbs they show 2 seasons behind england but on finalgear they usually have it available for download the next day after its shown in uk :1syellow1

What an amazing recovery to come back from something like that. It wouldn't be quite the same without him joining in on the banter between him, May, and Clarkson. The new season of Top Gear can't come fast enough!

Very awesome news.
I wonder if they will show the footage of the crash. I heard somewhere that Hammond wanted to show the footage.

Reading the latest Blueprint magazine it says that FPV will be playing ads during the breaks of top gear on SBS.

I read in the paper last week that Clarkson plans on playing the footage of the accident on one episode due to demand...

Kind of ironic some of the things he says before the crash, like what could happen
Had to laugh at Clarkson when he said it's the fastest crash in Britain, but it wont be recognised as he has to do it in the other direction too lol |
