May I just suggest, if you don't have anything earth-shatteringly brilliant to do tonight (and you live in Australia) that you tune into SBS at 7:30 tonight to see where one of my favourite telly shows relaunched itself?
In true Clarksonesque style - here's a bit of an explanation as to why failing to tune in would be the biggest mistake of your life ...
You don't have to like cars to watch it ... but, you know ... it helps. That being said, it's a lot more fun that most things on telly, it's a lot cheaper than a night down the pub and quite a bit more intelligent than the conversation you're likely to enjoy with your significant other.
Whether you like your information with a touch of tobasco, your men hot, short and English ... or you're harbouring a secret passion to restore a vintage Mini or just go really, really fast ... this show is for you.
Some say it's just three blokes cocking about with cars.
Some say it's just an excuse to be politically incorrect and say the word cock a lot.
We know it as ... Top Gear!
Oh, and don't make the mistake of thinking you can buy this show on DVD - they only do highlights.
Season 1, Episode 1, tonight SBS 7:30 in the pm.
All hail the Stig.
