By the way when I said a month before I was over exaggerating a little maybe it was somewhere between 18 and 22 days but never the less I still saw it before most people saw it on TV on Cable television in North America…Sorry!
Just because you see a new episode on TV it doesn’t mean that you are watching it the same day that it aired in Europe. It’s just like over here in Europe we can see American episodes of CSI and Jail break and Lost and 24 and blah blah blah on American chanels like HBO of FOX or CBS or NBC and we think they are new episodes that aired the same day in USA but they are not. What aired here today may have aired in USA 1 to 3 weeks ago.
The same goes with European chanels people in North America may think they are watching something that just aired in Europe the same day or even at the same time meanwhile people here saw it a few weeks before.
Possibly if you have satelite depending on which satelite you are catching a signal from only then you can see the same thing they are watching in Europe at the same time as long as that chanel doesn’t have an export version that is different then the local version.
But if you are watching BBC on Rogers then most likely you are watching the export stream and not the local England stream. I don’t know why they have a local version and an export version but it sucks, because a few weeks ago my friend was telling me about a funny episode of the Family guy and I saw it like a week later here.

Anyway back on subject… I have yet to see an episode of Top Gear that I didn’t like, yes some episodes may not be as good as others but never the less I don’t think I have ever seen an episode of Top Gear that I got to the point where I felt like changing the chanel.

i download them an hour after they air.
