Top Gear Show/Site Suggestions - Page 2

SPG900 · January 4th, 2005, 04:03 PM

Maybe some more specials would be nice, like the Lamborghini and BMW episodes a year ago. And after watching (and thoroughly enjoying) Clarkson's Motorworld series and Meet the Neighbours, how about some country specials? Put the cars of a certain country together, see how they are alike, and different from other cars, etc. Should be fun with TG's sense of humour. Well, you already did Korea last week, so that's out of the way.

I obviously can't post full shows (I'd love the BBC to say its okay, but its not likely. Yet.) but I can possibly do requests for stuff in the downloads section, so you could at least see your favourite clips again.

Overheat · January 4th, 2005, 04:21 PM

Well, it was worth a try! hehe

Anyway, it's nice to have you here to grace our forums and I hope you enjoy your stay. Feel free to explore the whole forum, and try not to get too addicted like we all are!

I've got a feeling your presence will make this a very popular thread indeed

Suggestion:
As you can see in the "what's that song" section, we love the music on Top Gear:
http://forum.finalgear.com/viewforum.php?f=28
Perhaps it would be nice to have to have that info available from the source rather than us trying to guess it (although Zenon does a good job).

Anyways, I love the show and the website!

And thanks for posting here!

And please... please... put Jeremy in his Ford GT and Richard on his Charger to do the competition of the car who use the most fuel

We get asked this a lot. Of course the show has a detailed record of every piece of music used, so it wouldn't be hard (although a little time consuming!)

Another idea for my list!

M5Rangerover · January 5th, 2005, 02:44 AM

hmmm

how long have you been "watching" us?

Cruzz563 · January 5th, 2005, 03:28 AM

@M5Rangerover

But a very good question!

SiR_dude · January 5th, 2005, 03:37 AM

Hey!! How did I miss this!? We finally picked up a BBC member!! At least, one that finally came out and told us....

Welcome aboard, m8

Webmonkey · January 5th, 2005, 09:40 AM

I'm not here in an official capacity, I'm just gathering ideas, and trying to make what we do here a little more open to the people who watch and enjoy the programme.

SPG900 · January 5th, 2005, 12:46 PM

I'm sure the competition at Channel 5 have a few of their guys lurking around here as well... So maybe you shouldn't tell us too much.

Ultra_Kool_Dude · January 5th, 2005, 12:58 PM

I think it would be great if we could have one of those online chat sessions with one of the three hosts.

What do you say BBC? Is Jeremy, Richard, or James hanging around the office?

Daniel · January 5th, 2005, 02:10 PM

^Oh yeah, that would be biblical. We'd probably nuke Vipers server though...

Err... I'm sure UKD meant a chat session on the official Top Gear website.

Daniel · January 5th, 2005, 02:23 PM

That'd be less cool... Too many people would show up...

Ultra_Kool_Dude · January 5th, 2005, 02:31 PM

I'm sure we could think of some interesting questions.
