| 681691 | 2008-06-24 01:10:00 | Top Gear: new series started (in UK) Lets all have bets as to how long before they show it in NZ My bet is Dec-Jan How many people here download TV programs rather than wait up to a year for it to be shown locally. |

Some TV programs don't even screen in NZ, so downloading is the only way to view them, otherwise you miss out. |

| 681693 | 2008-06-24 02:46:00 | Sometimes. I downloaded a couple episodes of south park a while back, took a good 8 months for them to arrive here. | ubergeek85 (131) | ||
| 681694 | 2008-06-24 02:49:00 | Nah I can wait, enjoying the latest mad escapades on at the momnet - the trip to the Pole, this weeks desert crossing etc. Notice how many things they do in Hiluxs? |

| 681695 | 2008-06-24 03:25:00 | That's because Toyota designed the 2nd best 4wd ever. And Jeremy doesn't like the Land Rovers. :D You saw the episode where they tried to kill a Hilux? Dropped it off a building, drowned it in the sea, lit it on fire, drove it through a shed, it still went. |

| 681696 | 2008-06-24 04:51:00 | ive always wanted to take a hilux like that and back it at very high speed into the local telephone exchange thats getting a bit old and never gets the attention it needs (typical) perhaps i could try and get hold of the top gear crew and suggest it to them? they could even stick a few caravans next to it and make sure they perish at the same time! sounds like a good idea to me ;) |

The most amazing speed ever for that exchange, so either a whole lot of people there died or they did something to improve it. |

| 681699 | 2008-06-24 05:35:00 | I used to download a lot of TV programs but lately they seem to have been a bit better at playing them on TV here quicker. An example is the last series of Lost, they were only about 2-3 weeks behind the downloads on the net so didn't bother. I don't watch the ads either way as I record on my HTPC then skip the ads. |
