Does anyone watch the BBC Worlds's Top Gear show?

The Top Gear show is the best entertaining auto program I have ever watched. I recommend it to everyone.
The show times are as following:

Wednesdays @ 1930 GMT

Repeated on:
Thursdays @ 1330 GMT
Fridays @ 1630 GMT
Sundays @ 0430 & 1730 GMT
Mondays @ 0030 & 0730 GMT

I forgot to mention that using the file transfer programs like Kazaa anyone can download the shows.
Just search for Top Gear.

Are the file downloads legal?

We're hoping to get hooked up with satellite TV (VMC Satellite, not EchoStar, although EchoStar sent us some BS "Not Enough Credit Information" letter after we got the installation date set up with VMC -- ???). That'll be this coming week, so I'll try to look for BBC World.

Right now the only auto shows we get are on TNN (now Spike TV), and they're not terribly informative.

BBC World is a free service. It is broadcasted through the Hotbird sattelite (channel 12597) and can be viewed in Europe, Russia, and Central Asia.
Since the service is free I don't think it it illegal to record it and share it with the other user. Don't crop out the commercials from the middle of the program and the BBC won't be mad at you
