No, they only made 6 programmes.

Magazines such as "Total TV Guide" provide helpful hints each week as to which programme in the series is being shown on a particular date. As Sunday 25th Feb's episode was shown as 5/6, I kinda guessed that Sunday 4th March would be the last one in the series. When the first episode was shown as 1/6, I even managed to work out back then that the last of the series would be shown on 4th March.

(To be fair, I hadn't taken into account any snooker or golf crap that might overrun and cause Top Gear to be postponed )

Years ago that used to be standard .... I remember 6 episodes (of BlackAdder / Fawlty Towers etc..) and then having to wait a year for more!

You probably wouldn't think it but there were only 12 episodes ever made of faulty towers. Compare that to lost or friends.

Thing is mate not a bad incentive for doing loads of episodes when your getting over a million bucks per episode.
