And then on Monday night on the BBC America. I hear from sources close to the heart of the matter that the Stig will be driving it around the track at full pace!

I'll have to dig out my Betamax as we all know it has better quality

Thanks for heads up and my boys give me flack all the time for saying to tape a program.

My favorite story was when a little brother jumped in my friends car and asked how to roll down the window! Well you crank that handle on the door

Can't wait! I was laughing so hard at episode 3 (abandoned airport). I love their sarcastic sense of humour - right up my alley!

God I hope so.

at least Comcast on the east coast are on Monday not Sunday.

We're indeed a week behind, here's next week's episode.

Quote:

Series 20 Episode 5 of 6

Duration: 1 hour

Jeremy Clarkson and James May investigate an increasingly popular type of tall hatchback often referred to as a 'crossover'. After deducing that these cars are designed entirely to appeal to caravanners, the pair pick examples from Mazda and Volkswagen then use them to spend a couple of days living like the kind of person who would buy one.

Meanwhile, Richard Hammond is in Italy driving a pair of Lamborghinis, the sensational Aventador Roadster and a 2 million pound, 570 horsepower riot of carbon fibre and space age styling called the Sesto Elemento.

Plus, James May is at the test track to drive a modern recreation of the classic Porsche 911 and Aerosmith legend Steven Tyler is the rock star in the Reasonably Priced Car.
