I read about a lot of you bad-mouthing Top Gear, and I agree it is really cr4p lately.

Anyone out there got cable or satelite?

Go to UK Horizons on Monday evenings at 7pm, you get a whole hour of Top Gear, ok some of this is still cr4p, but in one hour almost half of it is ok.

Today it was Tiff driving the Jag XJR-R round an airfield (for more than 5 mins) and the lads favourite VBH in the Czech republic talking about Skoda (OK bad topic, but she did have fun with an Octavia turbo).

Catch it next week, or check the listings (I think it is repeated).

It is on quite a bit - I can never work out timings as they seem to just show things whenever they want with OnDigital.

I agree though, it can be pretty good. Also look out for Clarksons Car Years, or whatever it is called. He was on the Buttertubs pass about 3 weeks ago in his "Escort Cosseh" - Superb

Its pretty good actually, Im pretty sure they are the same articles put on the BBC, but are more balanced as they are longer, i.e. not so trimmed down and sensationalised

Sorry but I am not a big fan of Top Gear Gti, it is always being repeated and often the episodes are 1 year + old. Agreed the features are more balanced, but it seems to have the same mix as Top gear and newer TG Gti's are getting quite dull, just like the BBC2 Show.

UKHorizons on Sky Digital shows Top Gear GTI quite often.
