You need to goto the bbc web site goto the top gear page and there is alink there. It goes to a site that organise the people at tv shows, all you do is fill in a form and wait to see if they ring you back and give you the tickets.

BUT I have tried five times to get tickets to no avail. SO don't get miffed if they don't get in touch

I went to last week's beemer fest. Funniest bits were the ones that are never broadcast - "**** staff car" and "this week we see if all Porsche are cr*p" spring to mind <coat on>

Yes it was cold. Best place to stand depends on you predicting where the camera is pointing. Each segment is recorded separately so see where the cars are placed and get near to one. Alternatively hover near the edge of the stage throughout

I was spotted twice by the independent viweing panel at home (before they quit 40 minutes in because they don't understand why I watch all those car programmes )

Shame you can't watch the track bits.

oh and we sent a application form via the web, Phil had to call them today to see if we were getting tickets as we hadnt heard anything and every1 had booked the day off.

You have to have an equal amount of ladies to the men (always wondered y there were so many females there!!!!!)

Yep - hoping for a good day all round - just gotta wait for the tickets to turn up, hopefully tomorrow.

I sent in the application for tickets about 3 weeks and hadn't heard anything so rang them up on 0208 3242700. Spoke to a very nice lady who managed to squeeze us on for next week.

Wurzel - Mark's kinda hard to miss, so should imagine he'll get some air time.....

As he said, look for the band of people in grey - that'll be us!
