It's a classic.


It was also updated recently, though I've never seen either...

Avoid the remake with Jim Caviezel it is not anything like the original and has been cancelled already.

The good news is that we'll be running wireline on Sunday so I'll be able to sneek off and watch Top Gear.

There is the odd good film or show on. But Con Air as good as it is has been on a few times.

I would agree but at the moment I have better things to do. So as good as it is I am not bothered. In the winter yes I would watch.

In some respects it might be better for me to watch it on my computer which is on anyway rather than on the TV which is not that efficient to run.

I've just been looking around for documentaries on iPlayer. They don't have a documentary section in their categories.

They have a section called factual, and it contains....... Top Gear. WTF?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I would have thought entertainment was a more appropriate section.

A fact about the show is different to the show being factual. (8+p
