As the thread says.... are they worth watching?
Plus is there a list for the "Best of..." episodes (with their contents)?

I know of the normal episodes listed in the sticky thread above, but its very difficult to find a list for the "Best of..." and what their contents are.

/TIA
 
The "Best of" episodes are just some clips from the series, nothing new, so if you've seen all episodes it's not worth watching.
 
^Yep thats right. ALWAYS re-run footage. Nothing new.

There isn't actually a "Best of..." guide however if you need to know whats on a particular Best of episode, we can help you out somehow.
 
I've noticed the other day that Porsche Carrera GT test was a bit reedited for "The Best of...", reedited in positive way. 8)
And there's the same story with earlyer "Best of", the Jaguar XKRR and Aston Martin DB7 GT test, music is changed a bit.

So if you're hot to watch it, go on.
 
Thanks for the information folks.

Though I do have one other question, are the 'Best of....' only one epsiode (per-season/series)? Or are there several episodes (per-season/series)?

I recall reading somewhere in this forum that the 'Best of...' might comprise of several episodes. Oh here's the thread.

Now they are doing them at the end of each calender year however in the earlier series )2002-03, they would have one after each series...so around 2 a year.
 
"exciting new material"
you have to advertise your show in some way 8)
 
There is one this sunday dedicated to the challenges


Best of Top Gear: The Challenges
9:00pm - 10:00pm
BBC2


Highlights from the last series with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. Compilation of the best ever challenges sees the boys go 70's retro in supercars; Jeremy takes on a tank in a Range Rover Sport; Richard tries to outsprint a champion greyhound in the Mazda MX5; James takes on a BMX biker around Lisbon in the new Renault Clio; and the best convertible for wig wearers is revealed.


They do like their Best Of programmes, don't they. :lol:
 
Thanks for the info :)

Thats the first time they've done a Best of episode dedicated to a specific theme. They've already done their normal Best of for 2005. I guess its because they had such a short series 7 they still have slots for their program so they compile old footage and run that.
 
If there is a BEST episode of TG, I'd recommend Season7 Episode4 "Bugatti Veyron", The Car of The Year and of the motor history.
 
I should defend the site, at least one of the best of shows is supposed to have new material in it.

I do accept that:

1) The show has not yet materialised
2) Doesn't actually have _that much_ new in it.

But hey, I can only go on what I'm told, and what is accurate at the time.

Plans change :)
