Top Gear HD

Following many complaints from fans, the BBC's Top Gear is finally filming with HD cameras, and the show will be broadcast on BBC HD from 15 November...

Danielle Nagler, BBC HD boss:

"I can confirm that the team is now working with HD cameras on the new series. You've been very clear that this is a BBC programme that for you represents the best of what we do, and that you believe it is one of those series that can benefit most from HD. I agree with you, and I'm confident that the shift will ensure that the cars are glossier and faster than ever, and the presenters... well, probably will look even more like their reflections in the mirror but we'll all have to wait to judge."
