Default No, There's Been No Word On Or Sign Of Fifth Gear Yet

I haven't talked to Vuk in months and there's no sign of the episode on any of our private FTPs. I'll try and get in contact with him and see what's up, although my guess is he simply just didn't realize the show had returned. (Aren't we an organized bunch? heh)

There's also no release from the Scene, or at least not yet.

I'll try and keep you updated.

Hmmm, didn't you recently buy him a new tuner so he didn't miss episodes? images/smilies/tongue.gif

Ah well, thanks for the update anyway. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

PS Will any link be loaded onto the RSS feed?
& will the RSS feed address be reposted on the main site (or FAQ) for those that don't have it?

If this was a Top Gear episode, everyone would be screaming for his head if it wasnt out yet.

Hmmm, some of us are a little more subtle than that images/smilies/biggrin.gif
However, if a Scene RIP makes it out before Vuk, then.... images/smilies/idiot.gif

Yeah, we don't care nearly as much about Fifth Gear, but we should still get on the ball.

I've been having a lot of Internet connection issues lately, so that hasn't helped either.

Cheers monkeymax, I've got it (loaded in uTorrent) but there may be others who don't.
I was sure it used to be pinned on the main page of the site but maybe I'm confused images/smilies/wacko.gif

Possibly, but he's gone now and apparently that's made the show somewhat better (don't get 5 where I live now so can't watch it myself...). Anyway, that's discussion for another thread...

Exactly my point. The main reason for not caring is now gone, so you'd think there was an incentive to make sure EP01 was 'taped'? images/smilies/sad.gif

There's a rip of the R8 test on YouTube, how did that guy get the source? I think there must be one scene rip out. Hopefully it'll trickle down.

I finally watched the R8 segment on YouTube. It was good. If every segment has that kinda quality, Fifth Gear is back to season 9's standard. images/smilies/smile.gif

Some of you need to lighten up.
Patience is NOT the issue here, if someone is taking their time to master and encode it then great, it'll be worth the wait.
The real concern is that nobody has a copy at all!
Viper007Bond stated in post #1 that he has has no contact with Vuk in months so maybe he hasn't got it. The Scene may also not have bothered following the programmes quality last season.
I can only hope that Vuk can be contacted and does manage to get the repeat. It seems this season may be worth seeing and I for one would like the opportunity to see if it is.

I fear that if Vuk doesn't record it, nobody will. So the call is out - anyone who CAN record it, please do so! It sounds like a really good ep...something I've been waiting for from Fifth Gear for a long time and it pains me not to be able to have access to it.

I just deleted 21 posts in this thread.

STOP ASKING OR BITCHING ABOUT NOT HAVING A TORRENT.

1) the scene doesnt have it.
2) We dont have it.
3) Vuk doesnt have it.

I'll try to record tomorrow's rerun. In fact, I wanted to record the ep on Monday but the countdown script on the main page was kinda broken (off by an hour) so I missed the first 16 minutes or so.

Anyway, I'll try my best tomorrow.

Go get it. It won't be a torrent cause the quality sucks.

SZGY- If you could do that and encode it nicely, we will post it on the main page with credit to you. Thanks mate.
