Good news, parts of the last one were good. Shame there isn't a BBC2 +1 though as Deutschland 83's on at 21:00.

It's repeated on Wednesday at 11:15

[RESSE]

Article in the Radio Times looks good. Looking forward to this new series (well 1 of 3 programs).

If only there was some kind of webservice where you could watch a BBC programme whenever you wanted for several weeks after transmission.

I want to watch them back-to-back, haven't got a recorder & May presumably won't be straight onto iplayer.

First world problem & all.

Or some sort of recording device that allows you to watch any programme later

That's the stuff of Science Fiction, surely? Whoever heard of such witchcraft?

I still have a vcr... but no external aerial.

Why not watch Deutschland 83 on channel 4 + 1 then?

...and a fair bit of play in the steering.

Had to be said.

Really enjoying this. It's basically James May's vision of Top Gear. Loving that Celica!

[Mister V]

"Disappointed Mann"

[DoctorX]

Sod Top Gear. More of this please.

[Laurel Green]

Blimey, that hour went by in a flash - excellent, Mr May.

[Dr Doofenshmirtz]

I'd rather have the Datsun 240Z over the Jag, I really would. I'd take the Celica over a Mustang too.

[ClockworkCupcake]

Well, crap. I missed this. But I am sure it will be on iPlayer. Yay iPlayer!

Agreed - though as my first car was a '75 Celica Coupe I may be a tad biased

[alfa phil]

Excellent telly. He shines when he is on his own ,don't you think.

[MitchT]

Enjoyed that. Great to see nothing being mindlessly destroyed either.

[FourWheelDrift]

I guess the guys at BMW who let James put the badge on the back of that 320 never watched Building Cars Live.

[Roo]

Enjoyed that. Loved the quips about TG and Mann.

Also agree that I'd have the Celica over the Mustang.
