    It'll be all over t3h interwebs in torrent form very soon - finalgear will have it soonish (although they can be a bit slow to encode sometimes to get what they want going on). :D

    Ah, good old 'er indoors reminded me to set it on sky+ when we picked the dog up before going out. Good job really, because I had completely forgotten :)

    Just incase anyone on Virgin Media missed it... it's on catch up TV for a week.. just whack on demand, catch up tv, flick to the 2nd page for wednesday and should be right in the middle of the page :D

    Watching it again now :D Missed half of it earlier due to overly vocal cohabitants.

    Awesome. Just Awesome. Best hour of TV in a long time. And even better in HD! ;)

    The whole thing about being in international waters so it's legal to drink and drive was priceless, as was the wine & Fortnum & Mason stylee hamper. And wee ole' hamster getting grumpy - 'I'd just like to point out, we're alone, it's a big place out there and I have a shovel. Don't.' :)

    P.S. - The only thing better than this was the fact that there was back to back Heroes on BBC HD straight after! :clap:

    Yup - it was on BBC HD the same time as it was on BBC2. It's about time too - I'm getting sick of seeing re runs of Torchwood & Planet Earth (pretty as that show is in HD) on there.

    The air inside the tyre heats up and expands when the lighter fluid burns, but does it within the tyre, so it expands and seals itself on the rim. :thumb:

    makes sense tho, Jeremy or James would probably have actually died if they were on the sled :p

    was an awesome ep, especially james that nutter with his hamper of luxury nibbles :D

    It's all over the various torrent sites like a rash - there are millions of foreign lovers of TG who want to see it, so it always goes up. It'll probably be repeated at the same time as the BBC-HD repeat. :)

    [edit]It's on sunday at 8pm [/edit]

    Ahhh! I wanted to watch that again. I couldn't work out if they just put it on the outside of the tyre or inside it or what! :)

    I think they just cover the normally invisible section of the rim as much as possible, then light 'er up by the looks - I saw a complete version of it done on another program a while back, it's very clever really - I've always fancied having a go maself! :D
