    If you do then you know the mispleasure.
    They cut out all the best bits, all of the news segments, mercilessly edit the segments, and can't seem to decide what series they are going to watch every week.

    Last week, they were on Series 8, the Ewan McGregor ep to be more specific, tomorrow they are back to the start of series 4 with Hamster's favourite, Paul McKenna.

    It is a good way tot get to see some of the challenges and races, ie. the London-Oslo race, Monte Carlo, etc, but it still REALLY grinds my gears.:mad:

    What do ye guys think?

    True, what really annoying is that the show has a handy 10-12 min slot that can be removed for the ads

    I wonder will they cut out the bits that refer to themselves :) - if I recall S11E01 "unless you're watching this on Dave, this is the new season of Top Gear" and last night, Will Young mentioned them too.

    Slightly off topic, but Dave is a bloody stupid name for a channel, if you ask me!

    I actually think they kept it in in the S11 premiere on Dave, I'm still pissed that they cut out the news segments.
    They were hilarious.
    "Guess what?!"
    "WHAT??!"
    "The- *bursts out laughing*"

    I loved the Dacia Sandero bits, lol.
    Also, the stupid signs, "Thankyou for driving carefully through our town", lol!

    They also kept in the S(s)IARPC, I think they made a mistake in making it 2 stars, it just went on longer, and then left the rest of the show to seem rushed.

    Also, relating to this series...
    Is Richard trying to turn into James?!:confused:

    And the news segment.
    Nd they sometimes tend to cut out bits of features, most notably the Convertable People Carrier.

    Stupid Dave, "Made for the BBC, phuqued up by Dave"

    It's very annoying and very noticeable. Is there any reason that they couldn't cut out the celebrity rubbish?
