As most of you would have seen that Top Gear is going to NBN this year.

I'm guessing the show will run for an hour, but is going to interesting to see if NBN is going to ruin the show with half hour worth of adds.Which will be a real let down. But I guess they will have to I would love to no how much they paid for the rights to the show.

What are people's thoughts on the show for this year?

time will tell, but they will probably trim the show down to fit in the ad breaks.

pretty obvious that it would go to a commercial station soon enough as it such a popular show.

:stupid: Unfortunately the show runs for an hour in the UK, so if they give it an hour slot then add commercials it will need trimming :bangcomputer:

It kinda sucks and usually they cut out some funny / unPC jokes at the end of segments. I bought the DVDs when they first came out and was disappointed to find they had trimmed sections down a whole bunch.

Every episode of Top Gear I've downloaded (and most other shows for that matter) all run for about 42 minutes. Once the ads are put in the show runs for about an hour.

It will be no different.

Guess I was wrong then.

SBS has ads in the episodes they show. So I guess they're cutting them down as well.
