Default Top Gear Back In Feb not Jan

Sorry to break this to you but according to BBC2, Top Gear is back in Feb not Jan as we thought.
Jan 28th must be the "crash special" with the proper Top Gear on the 4th.

oh it is when your tv is filled with the tripe that its currently showing

C4 in their infinite wisdom have seen fit to expose us all the stupidness of jade goody once more as she has been put in the celebrity big brother house.

she asked the jackson guy in there if he was a proper black, and questioned whether one of his parents where white lol! the dudes as black as the night and she says was your mum white and are u a proper black?

its a shame, becuase i actually find jade quite attractive...but she's thicker than pig muck and is stupendously richer for it.


then you have got heartbeat images/smilies/mellow.gif, a collection of films you have seen thousands of times, emmerdale, coronation street and east enders all of which feature naff actors and rediculously over the top story-lines with about as much credibility as flying to the moon in a paper bag.

top gear is what makes the tv license fee bearable

Damn. I had the 29th free and ready for downloading the new ep. Another week is almost unbearable! Atleast it's coming back, I guess.

Top Gear websites are still calling for a "return" on the 28th.
http://www.topgear.com/content/tgonbbc2/
http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/

It may be the crash show that they anticipated running. Either way we're getting something on the 28th. I'd believe the websites before I believed a voiceover lady. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

i second that, mythbusters is pretty good though, and comedy central is pretty good when their not just showing re-runs, but thats a rarity

Don't believe the announcers. They are often known to make mistakes all the bloody time. There was one night when in an hour and half, i counted about 12 mistake made by the announcer

I think they need some lessons on how to read a piece of paper

it may just be that the person who wrote the stuff on the bits of paper got it wrong too you know, voice-over people generally just read from the paper, they don't care about the contents of it

:edit:

ooooh! post number 800 hehe

It'll be back on the 28th. Both my secret source and the official site say that.

The 28th is probably just the crash episode and then "real" episodes start the next week in Feb.
