ABC TV advise that For The Love Of Cars is on a scheduled break and the remaining three episodes will be broadcast later in the year. To keep up to date about ABC TV, viewers may like to subscribe to the online newsletter, Switched On, and regularly check the ABC TV guide.

Thanks for that.

It is a shame that the ABC did not explain that when they advertised the MGTC episode for this week a few days back. I doubt it is a scheduled break as it is halfway through the series and episode 5 was advertised for tonight - something else has happened at short notice.

'Scheduled Break' sounds more like: 'We put this on at Prime Time and it is rating poorly, so let's tell everyone it will be on later in the year and maybe they will forget about it'. If it was rating well it wouldn't have been dropped.

What I don't understand is, ABC has multiple channels. If you want to dump it, shove it on ABC2 in the middle of the night instead. Or plonk it on iview.
Or perhaps they just lost the Betamax tape that they had the show stored on...

All episodes are available on Youtube,
I watched them all before they came to air on ABC,
6 cars and last episode is the auction of them all.

MGTC
Stag
DMC
Ford Escort (mexico?) series 1
Mini Cooper
Land Rover S1.

Episode 7 - auction.

Great series.

This link has the series as the first seven links that come up.

Am I losing (more of) my marbles, or has For the Love of Cars suddenly disappeared out of the programming schedule? I was watching and recording it, they were half way through the series, and suddenly I can't find it. Has it been moved? Cancelled? Encoded so only poms can see it? Anyone know?

The answer is here.

They are all up on YouTube.

I watched the last 3 episodes including the auction over the weekend.

Well, I just used the annoying new post summary thingy at the top of that thread to scan through it and I still don't know what's happened to the free to air broadcast of it. Guess I'll be on YouTube.
