Did you know... Australia has it's own top gear? 
It's fucked up, 3 people, same intro, similar set... A STIG - different track...
It's a bit stupid though, as what if STIG Australia is a better driver than STIG UK or whatever - ok yeah, different track - but you may end up with some cars in completely different orders (or different cars at the top).
Plus the presenters are baboons... 1 serious chap and 2 odd looking fellows who constantly try to joke but it all feels ultra ultra scripted / auto queued and doesn't gel...
To be honest, it reminds me of Fifth Gear - 'Trying to be' Top Gear.
Have a watch.
