New top gear
I hear that they've booked out Retallack Lodge.
It would be pretty cool to run into the boys at the Hume or over coffee at Oso Negro.
Apparently they spent their Sunday chillin out in Trail …
The host of one of the world's best-known television shows found himself stranded a small town in the B.C. interior this past weekend.
Jeremy Clarkson and his crew from the BBC show Top Gear recognized by the Guinness book of World Records as the world's most widely viewed factual t.v. show found themselves stranded in Trail, B.C. because of poor weather.
Clarkson's twitter account was soon flooded with suggestions, including a tour of the local lead and zinc smelter, a visit to a local winery, a meal at an Italian restaurant and strangely an invitation to the local supermarket to learn how to properly butcher a goat.
In the end despite low lying cloud Clarkson and his crew were able to fly out of the town's tiny airport Sunday afternoon.
Top Gear had been filming in the South Okanagan and the West Kootenay over the weekend, and for the most part kept their location a secret, in order to film undisturbed.
Last week Jon Summerland with the Okanagan Film Commission told CBC News the show came to B.C. to film a segment with a Hennessey VelociRaptor, a Ford F-150 converted into a high-performance-SUV.
"Because the vehicle that they're going to be doing the show on, the Hennessey VelociRaptor, they wanted to show it in a variety of terrains, from highway driving, to mountains, to dirt, to climbing up trees, to going up snow, so British Columbia was hot on their radar," said Summerland.

Can't wait for the new season.

If you're using a VPN (and you should be if you're getting torrents), set yourself up with a UK IP address and you can watch the specials on BBC Two online.

I'm using Private Internet Access. I consider it essential here in the US, as some of the other Canadians that were down here prior to me received some pretty threatening letters for torrenting. I don't think they have the same privacy rules so ISPs seem to give up people's info pretty quickly.
Second episode is downloading now, might even watch the first one again before starting on the second half!

Maybe its just me, but I've never heard (so far) of anyone getting a warning about torrenting episodes of TV shows. Its typically movies and more commonly movies that haven't been released outside of theaters yet. Maybe someone could disprove my thesis.

Yeah from what I understand it's mostly movies, but there are posts on reddit where people have talked about getting letters about pirating shows from HBO (I think GoT was mentioned specifically). Either way I'll still use the VPN when I get back to Canada, especially as it still gives me access to US Netflix, BBC shows, and other region locked content.
