SBS 7:30 Monday nights. Pretty sure we get full version not cut in anyway.
On monday episode (23/07/06) episode, Jeremy looks back at the racing history of Maserati and he gets to drive a 250F, one of the first F1 racers. The team then proceed to dismember the new Jaguar XK. In a fun contest, Jeremy, Richard and James must buy a sports coupe for £1500, which they put through a series of tests. These tests include driving with a lapful of water, going up and down a serpentine and racing through bus-friendly Oxford so we are pretty far behind dont know how long its going to stay in that time slot for. probably untill mythbusters comes back so maybe a few months |

Really? i didnt know that? i dont actualy watch them
I assumed that it was shown since sbs doesnt have ads and wouldnt have to stick 15mins of ads into it and not have to cut it down.

I missed it last week as I was skiing (with a few eps on my video iPod so I didn't suffer withdrawal!), but I'll be sure to check it out this week. I've watched all of season 6 a thousand times, but it's nice to see it on the big screen and make sure the show gets ratings. The better it rates the better chance we have of seeing more on TV, and more up to date!

The best bit about TG on SBS is that it gives me something to talk to my work colleagues about around the water cooler on Tuesday mornings.
