I saw that on BBC America a while back. It was great to watch. Top Gear is one of my favorite shows. I can't wait til BBC American shows another season.

My favourite Top Gear thing was when the three went on a caravanning holiday.

There was, unsuprisingly, a fire.

Serries one was dire, but they ditched Charlie Cox who was one, and replaced him with James Morrison. It's a little better in series 2 but there are still some crap sections that need tuning.

But if you look at the first two series of the pommy original they were a bit dire as well but got a lot better by the end of series three.

I'll keep watching if nothing else than to see some aussie cars now and then.
