:shock: :shock: After hearing what happened to Jeremy's back, I was a bit worried not having a new DVD this year. Good to know that the worry was unfounded!

Can't wait!

only way round it to get a pal compatable tv/ dvd or convert it yourself i guess, i've converted ntsc video to PAL before ok, but such a PITA no matter what happens no one format can be agreed on for stuff it seems :roll: It's a fairly small niece market here i guess so NTSC release is unlikely

Not sure whether he did any driving, i highly doubt it due to the risk of prolonging the problem but he was still filming after he did his back in


From that blog.....

Was his back still out ?


Yes! He was being merciless ribbed by the film crew too... As for the Stig, no chance. Wore the helmet all day and when he stopped for food he was wearing a balaclava! Cheers, Drew.
LMAO at the stig thing taking the secrecy seriously for sure

Found out something else interesting i never knew, the BBC co owns the company who make clarksons dvds, always wondered why he was allowed to make them despite being on a hefty BBC contract now i know

couldn't help but click either then but also further up it says
I got a call from the producers of Jeremy Clarkson's videos asking for a Red Mk1 Golf GTI for filming at an airfield. There were only two conditions.

A : Could Jeremy have a go. B : Would you mind a race with a Ferrari Enzo?
so still confused I posted a comment asking, don't know if anyone will respond quite an old topic, i guess in between the call and filming clarkson may have done his back in.

very true we control the market, but there alot of DVD that you find in small stores that are PAL beucase you just can't get those titles on NTSC, mostley french films and other lang. films and music concerts , no top gear or JC that I have seen
