Yay I normally hate car programmes but Top gear's just hilarious
I don't know if any of you have signed up for the newsletter. This is this month's issue. You can sign up here http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/newsletter.shtml I'll put the pics in another post.
Issue 1, October 07
Feeling like you've been left out in the cold? Fear not, the new series of Top Gear is ready to make a full-throttle return to BBC Two this Sunday, bringing some warmth back into your weekends.
The new series
This series you're being treated to a proper full-fat ten episodes. We'll be driving everything from the tiny Peel microcar to the mighty Veyron, and taking on some extraordinary challenges involving exotic locations, amazing vehicles, and even a man with a rocket-powered rucksack.
American fly-drive adventure
Newsletter clip
By subscribing to the Top Gear newsletter, you're one of the lucky few to have access to this special montage video of our US fly-drive spectacular http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/clip_newsletter.shtml As you take a look at some of the best bits from our US odyssey, bask in the knowledge that no-one outside the Top Gear studio has ever laid eyes on this.
Pointless Top Gear trivia
Did you know that several of the Aston Martin-based driving sequences in the deeply cool Bond film Casino Royale were filmed at Top Gear's humble test track? This is a mere taster of some of the irrelevant factoids you can find on Top Gear's mobile site along with our weekly quiz, wallpapers, etc... http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/mobile.shtml
Watch and rate our Greatest Hits
For a programme that's constantly accused of being 'obsessed' with speed, it's telling that the most popular clip, as voted for by you, is an interview with a man who walks everywhere http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/clips.shtml?34
We're always adding to our selection of Top Gear's finest challenges, races and interviews - so keep coming back.
Polar special
In this one-off Top Gear extravaganza, our presenters raced one another across the Arctic Circle to the North Pole. Even by our standards, this was a big one, and represented one of the most challenging shoots we've ever undertaken. Take a look at what went on behind the scenes http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/show/pr..._special.shtml
Clear your schedule, disconnect the phone, or at the very least set your recorder, because Top Gear is back on BBC Two on Sunday 7 October, at 8pm.
However, just in case you get trapped under a big rock or something, BBC Two will be repeating the show at 7pm on Wednesday 10 October - which should hopefully give you time to free yourself.
As we take the tyre-warmers off a new series of Top Gear, the wait’s almost over. We’ve got ten whole episodes of excellent-ness ready to unleash on your Sunday night viewing schedule, and you simply won’t believe what Messrs Clarkson, Hammond and May have been up to over the past couple of months.
So, for one night of the week at least, you can banish cookery and home-improvement programmes from your screen and enjoy some good old-fashioned petrol-based fun.
In episode one, we decided to find the finest driving road in Europe. Coincidentally, Lamborghini, Porsche and Aston Martin have recently seen fit to release a brace of new lightweight road-racers in the form of the Gallardo Superleggera, 911 GT3 RS and V8 Vantage N24. To quote Hammond, I think you can see where this is going.
Also in the first programme, Jeremy takes to the test track in an improbably powerful VW Golf, and we put a monarch (sort of) in our reasonably priced car when Dame Helen Mirren comes to visit.
Later in the series, we’ll treat you to a selection of massive challenges and stunts. You’ll see the glorious return of the amphibious cars, in a voyage that makes the crossing of a reservoir look a tiny bit feeble. We put the biofuel we grew last series to seriously good use. And we spend an entire programme in Africa as our intrepid presenters attempt one of our wildly over-ambitious, but cheap, races.
Also: it was massively delayed, gave some of the finest engineering minds in Europe nervous breakdowns, and is too expensive for all but the richest Arab potentates - and that’s just the car. Find out what happened when the Bugatti Veyron met the Eurofighter.
It might surprise you to know we’ve even thrown in some road tests and reviews of the most exciting and interesting cars to hit the road - including the latest Ferrari, Porsche-baiting new Audi R8 supercar and hotly tipped Caparo T1.
So, stop the clocks, silence the dog with a juicy bone and cancel anything you were planning to do on Sunday evenings for the next ten weeks - Top Gear is back!
Sunday 7, 8pm BBC Two
Repeated Wednesday 10, 7pm on BBC Two

Class episode. Loved the bit at the beginning where Jeremy said something about not lying to viewers (to do with the recent "phone scandals") and then the camera panned to Richard standing on a box.
James made me laugh towards the end of the second part of the film when he took his clothes off in the car and poured water over himself
Can't wait for next week
