I think this is the ultimate Top Gear clip:

We're regularly in hysterics over this series and Top Gear has got to be one of my all-time favourite programmes!
I also loved the episode where they drove the Hilux to the North Pole.

Man that is so funny. Now that would definitely be the way to stop congestion. Instead of one/two lanes everywhere that you could have four lanes - Problem solved :doh:

Yeah that was classic, I couldn't stop laughing either.
However I think this weeks episode when they go to africa will be one to watch. Hopefully along the lines of their american road trip.

Anyone who might be able to help a fan without cable TV getting his hand on the season 10 episodes?

^^^ Just be careful - I used up my entire 1GB allowance downloading two episodes of Top Gear. While you're downloading a 60MB clip, others are grabbing bits from you, so your total traffic balloons. I now have 10GB/month, but still don't bother with BitTorrent etc. Oh for uncapped broadband...

Yes using stuff like bit torrent you have to pretty much double it, aka downloading 100meg file, in threoy you will download 100meg, but also upload 100meg,
and on average a esp of top gear is 700megs (1hour long)

Well, thing is the very very competent telecom companies have so far not managed to provide us with broadband at home yet. (Bit of a bitch since internet is a handy way to communicate with people on the other side of planet)
So at the moment I do all of my internet out of uni - and it sucks since it's 3 cents per Mb international traffic :crazy:
Bittorrent is then an expensive way to go...

2 funniest bits were when the Chairman of the Beeb stole the car, and when he went to the meeting with every minority they could fit at the table. I almost pissed myself when they panned past the dwarf. :2thumbsup

BitTorrent: to help reduce the amount thats uploaded from your machine you can limit the speed at which other machines can upload from yours (like 1kB/s). Problem with this is that your machine becomes undesirable to connect to (and share with), which means it takes much longer to get what you want. Trick is to configure your BitTorrent program to have a global upload speed at quite a high rate (like 'unlimited'), but as you start each download you set the upload rate for that file at 1kB/s. That way you are downloading 700MB for a movie, but if your upload speed is limited to 1kB/s you might have only uploaded 10MB to other machines. Not super friendly but.... meh. Our internet sucks.
Please correct me if I'm wrong folks.

Sounded like a good idea... can't find anywhere to set the speed for individual files though.

Using which client? uTorrent is great for PC's... I know you're not a Mac user ;)

Oh, didn't think there were different clients. I'm using BitTorrent 5.0.9.
And I take that as a compliment. You just saved my day ;)
