It would appear that they've got rid of all of the other full clips of Episode 1 that were on Youtube as well. There was at least a dozen or so yesterday - none this morning.Quote:

So - my understanding is that you can fork out their subscription cost - to effectively watch one program a week for as long as the season lasts. If you want to watch other programs on Amazon that your subscription would normally cover, and those programs are geoblocked - stiff ****.
Hopefully what I've read is wrong (or my understanding of it is incorrect) - but if not, they won't be getting my money. There are other ways to watch a program if you really want to see it. :D
This is the issue I face with Motor Trend On Demand- likened to the 'netflix' for car guys. Something I'd definitely consider in addition to the netflix subscription I have.Quote:

I'd jump at watching Grand tour on a pay per view arrangement, but it doesn't take long for a few '$13 per month' subscriptions to be underutilized or get out of hand.
Sounds like another example of the reasons why so many Australians are into piracy of shows they are blocked from getting legally.
That's exactly what i was getting at!Quote:

Just watched it. I thought it was pretty good and I will continue to watch it. I have watched 2 episodes of the new top gear and will not continue to watch that :)
Yep - I thought the same. The Grand Tour came across as the three of them taking up where they left off ............... except that they had a bit of difficulty in getting their celebrity guests onto the stage. :oQuote:
