Default BBC 2 Tonight - Unmissable!

8pm onwards a feast of top TV. Set the Sky+ or just kill a dull Sunday night and sit in front of the box.

8pm - Top Gear - Jeremy attempts to beat Hammond and May in a Nissan GT-R vs The Bullet Train. Also a test of the Alfa Romeo 8C

9pm - Repeat of the Long Way Round - Great 2004 documentary following Ewan McGregor and "Bugeye" Charley Boorman in their motorbike trip from London to New York. Far better than the woeful tv viewing that was The Long Way Down....

10.20pm - Pulp Fiction - Not to everyones taste but great for a Sunday night hard to believe it's almost 15 years old now

p.s. For all the slightly camp among you , Top Gun is showing on Sky One 9pm

That's a perfect night on telly AFAIC, it doesn't get much better

The Long Way Round is excellent, I bought Bob the DVD and we spent an entire weekend watching it. Pulp Fiction is one of my all time favourite films, Top Gun is cheesy camp crap and has a lot of mistakes in it but it's also a bit of an old favourite and TG is just the best thing on telly at the moment

After slating last weeks Top Gear I still can't miss it Watched an old episode on Dave yesterday where they turned a Robin Reliant into a space shuttle. Still can't believe what they managed to acheive with that one - awesome!

I don't know if it's just me but the Touring Cars annoys me a bit, it seems more about giving the bloke in front a tap to spin him off because it looks good for the cameras rather than outright good racecraft to get in front of him. Maybe it's just old age making me cynical?

It's old age. Did you not see them three abreast going down the straight, in a group of 5 cars all wanting the same apex? I love it

I'll certainly be tuning into Top Gear later.

I'm going to have to venture downstairs soon to see if there is anything on for a bit, as the other half has hijacked the TV up here to play bloody Metal Gear Solid.
