You may be interested to know that BBC World shows Top Gear on Wednesday at 8.30pm UK time. It seems to be a couple of weeks behind, as Harry Enfield was on this week. So I'm hoping the Noble comes up next week !

I am in Saudi at the moment, and they show *half* of each programme (30 minutes) on Wednesday night, repeated at different times on Thur, Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon.
See www.bbcworld.com for schedules.

Hey Sparks - whereabouts in Saudi?
I've been travelling there regularly on business since 1975 and lived in Riyadh for 14 months
Then made a sensible move to live in Dubai (Sharjah) for 10 years. Came back to UK in 2000.
We never had the luxury of BBC progs back then - only sid and nurses ..... actually we got virtually any booze back then at about £33 a bottle if I remember correctly. Price now?
Anyway ..... watch the drivers out there!

Hi Dubaiguy,

I have been here in Khobar (near the causeway) for 6 months, and am coming home very soon. I hate it here. sid about 30GBP for 2 litres neat (aka paint stripper!). I heard rumours of JW black label @ 100GBP a bottle. Driving still unbelieveable, as are the nurses .

I found the following on the BBCWorld web site:

week commencing 27th November 2002
Jeremy Clarkson tests drives the GTO Noble sports car and looks at some of the new cars being shown off at various motor shows. The star in a reasonably priced car this week is Jay Kay, the lead singer from Jamiroqui and he speaks about his passion for cars.

just a reminder for those interested that it shows tomorrow, and is repeated several times during the week.
