Well yesterday I went to see TopGear being filmed!  It is the last episode of the present series, so gonna be aired on Sun 4th March. The location was Dunsfold Aerodrome in Surrey and we were there from 2-7pm. It was a really fantastic day, had a wicked time. And was excellent to see what goes on behind the scenes and the banter etc. Got so many photos its untrue! Unfortunately they were all taken on my camera phone so a bit rubbish and not exactly sure how to upload them onto my computer as it saves them to bitmap not jpeg?? Got to meet Clarkson, Hammond and May and they all signed my Clarkson book too! So well chuffed!

If you manage to upload the pics, open them in MS Paint, then go Save As and under where you type the file name, click the down arrow and choose JPEG
Apparently the waiting list for Top Gear is 19 years.
4th March  last episode is Sunday

Yes and no- the new series filmed live started with the crash being shown and obv was post-hammond crash. BUT all the challenges etc and the trip to USA was filmed pre-hammond crash.

I also think this series has been shocking due to the lack of car reviews because everything was filmed pre-Hammond crash and so any car reviews that were done will be way out dated. They've always recorded the studio bit in the week before the show, hence all the topical jokes.
Hopefully next series will be better in terms of car review because everything won't be out of date. This series just seemed like catch up to me.
