They don't want to compete with Xfactor apparently


blakep82 - 10/11/09 at 12:18 PM

^ no competition! set top gear to record on sky+

i would have to cut my own knackers off if i ever wanted to watch xfactor...

i thought it was because of all the stuff about pre watershed stuff. ah well

Ironically I will be at 'Top Gear Live' at the NEC so will miss it!

No doubt 'tape' it though...wonder how long it will be until the phrase 'to tape a program' will become out of popular use?


blakep82 - 10/11/09 at 12:29 PM

won't be long til teenagers have never seen a vhs tape lol

Probably about as long as it will take for the phrase to 'hoover' will! (considering i doubt anyone actually has a hoover now!)

really looking forward to it!

just watched the add causing all the problems, it is fairly graphic!

top gear

I keep reminding the wife that we don't tape programs anymore we record them.

Someone should point out to them the "off" button on the remote!!

Someone should also realise that 13 complaints is probably less than 0.000001% of the total people viewing at the time.

PC gone mad.

you should wear a t-shirt with a picture of a kit car on it and see what they think

I got on the show about 3 years ago....and appeared in camera behind Hammond at the cool wall. I actually had a long conversation with Clarkson about the Lacetti winning a WTCC race...but is was all edited out
