TG at Dunsfold, are they filming today?

[The Hypno-Toad]

Anyone hear know if they are? Rumour is that a certain Mr B.Pitt is down there today, SIARPC or something to do with World War Z?

I always thought the SIARPC was filmed on the day they did the filming for the show?

I think that may be a Wednesday?

The filming of the show studio bit happens on wednesdays, the actual other stuff I think is done another time.

But there is no TG on Sunday is there? So it wouldn't be that as they film it the same week it goes out.

[DanDC5]

Not seen anything advertised for this Sunday.

[The Hypno-Toad]

Maybe filmed now, stored for later in the year?

[okgo]

Maybe, but they don't do anything in the studio unless there is a show following it on sunday.

But bear in mind other peple use the track too.

If they can only get that star on a date, then they will film it then and keep it for the next series. But you're right: I cannot imagine how they will let the guest drive the car without an interview. Hmmm...

They also film cars out of sequence- when I was in the audience for the Tom Cruise/Senna one, they were filming the 599GTO but that didnt appear until a much later series.

I was down there at around 1pm and saw nothing, and it was pretty quiet down there.. So if they were, it was earlier or later in the day than then.

They filmed the "Airport Vehicle Racing" bit about a year and half before they showed it because lets face it, it was so awesome they thought they'd make us wait...

Got to say I would be surprised if Mr Pitt was doing it. I always had him down as a lentil munching, Prius fan.

Stand down folks, turns out it was for World War Z.

I've heard they're also filming over in Aldershot somewhere.

[FourWheelDrift]

They also had Simon Cowell on the show at a different week to the show going out as Clarkson made a joke about his red poppy disappearing when he introduced him.
