Has anyone been on the Top Gear Set to watch a show being presented?

Would be quite cool to go and have a look.

My sister has been, got tickets through a friend at work. I offered her £50 and she still said no.

I'm supposedly on the waiting list, and have been for ages. Complete pot luck imho.

I went in Feb this year Was really good And also got to meet Clarkson, Hammond and May and have a chat, have pictures taken with them all and they all signed my Clarkson book

Wasn't on a waiting list as I got my tickets through a guy who works for the BBC and was staying at the hotel next to the pub I work in part time. Was staying in the hotel all week and just got chatting to him and cutting a long story short he sorted me out some TopGear tickets

The list is not 2 years long, my brother has been 3 times in the last 2 years, and has only applied a month or so before each time
