BBC Top Gear in Lecce
 

Last week Top Gear were in Lecce (Piazza Duomo) to film an episode for the new series. In the afternoon they went to the high speed track at Nardò Technical Center.

:)Brilliant. Thanks. Hope to be able to download when they start new series. Do you know when that is?
Didn't know Jeremy Clarkson was a smoker.

The new series starts in January and finishes in March 2012 and the "Italian" route will be one of the features. They started on the ring at Nardò, went to Rome centre (anyone see them there?) and finish at Imola.Not only is Jeremy Clarkson a smoker, more like chain smoker and James as well whereas Richard seemed to have an electronic cigarette.

:)Good, something to look forward to in the New Year. Will help to ward off TG1 and RAI News 24!

Does anyone watch Top Gear on Sky Italia? Have you seen how old some of those repeats are?!!?!

There was one on last week - must have been from about 7 or 8 years ago!!

Think cars will have moved on bit since then?

Did anyone see the first programme of the new series last night on the telly? It was the one about the Nardò ring nearby. I will have to wait till it comes on Sky:(

:)Ciao, I watched it last night. Downloaded it from UKNova.
Was really brilliant; or at least I thought so. Featured Lecce of course; then a hilarious breakdown on the A14; and a trip to Rome; and finally some high speed stuff at Imola.
