I thought a new series started a few weeks ago with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz... Then I turned on the tv a week or so ago and they said it was the end of the series.

Are there only 2 or 3 episodes in one series or have I forgotten to take my pills?

Yep, just 6 episodes pretty sure there used to be more.
I think what they have done is reduce the amount of episodes to increase the amount they spend on each one.

I think they halved the episodes from 12 to 6 per series.

Don't they usually do a few, have a break for the summer, and have the second half in the autumn? Pretty sure that's what happened last year...

so, one of the most profitable shows on the BC and we get 6 shows a year? Rubbish IMHO.

perhaps if they are short of ideas they could ask on places like this for ideas. i am sure we could come up with some crazy st.

Thanks. Nice to know my tv license gets used effectively - Top gear is the only reason I have a tv.

I'm off to the gym for a few rounds on the heavy bag...

The bit that seems strange to me is that they have 6 shows, and then 4 'best of' shows. Why not just repeat the whole series again!

Or have i got the wrong end of the stick and the best of is more than just this series?
