DVD Talk review of 'Top Gear 10: The Complete Season 10'

I read Ryan Keefer's DVD review of Top Gear 10: The Complete Season 10 at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=36948 and...

Are the episodes those from BBCA or BBC?!

These are straightforward accurate replications of the BBC broadcasts...
, leads me to believe that they are the longer versions.

And you missed a huge opportunity at the end of your review of a "all we know is..."!

I modified the review to reflect that these are the BBCA broadcasts. And I did kind of personalize the "AWKI" in there, it just felt a little too, I dunno, simple, to leave it as is.

Thanks for reading!

Thanks for the feedback. Now I'm torn. I feel compelled to pick this up to support future releases, but I'm really upset that it's only the BBCA edition. Like the change to conclusion as well!

It's worth noting that the version of "Top Gear" presented here isn't just edited for length. The music has been replaced, too. That's a real shame, because "Top Gear" is noted for its use of great music (there are several soundtrack albums out in the UK).

The segment from Episode 3, for example, where Richard Hammond races the Bugatti Veyron against the Eurofighter Typhoon has a much more epic feel with the original, foreboding music.
