I am part petrol head and one of my favourite tv proggies is Top Gear has been since the days of yore with  Tony Mason and Chris Goffey Et al but my question is this...

Top Gear is an hour long programme on bbc 2 but it also runs on the bbc s sister sattelite  stations of  uktvg2  and uktvpeople where it is also an hour long programme but over the course of the programme there will be three  4 or 5 minute advert breaks which equates to 12 - 15 mins of top gear time. HOw does that work?? Which parts of the programme get cut to make this say 15 minutes of advertising time??  :alien:
Any Ideas??

The boring bits where Jeremy Clarkson holds forth and talks complete TANGO.
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

Hippy

They would end up with more adverts than TV program

mostly the argueing between the 3 of them which is the best bit :biggrin:


I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

Im enjoying this new series .. and enjoy when Clarkson talks crap  :blink:

One thing that did surprise me about TopGear is how influential it is over many countrys in europe..  :blink:

I quite enjoy it, but it has to be most unfortunate if Clarkson is in any way influential.  The guy started as a journalist who did not even have a driving licence!!  He could talk c**p for England!

Exactly - he's opiniated, arrogant, self-deprecating and completely different to the normal dry boring motoring reviews. He isnt balanced, he isn't fair and as a result he's great!
