I was looking on the internet and found this. I find it hard to belive that if i ordered tickets to go i would be 39 as i am 18.

Even for me 21 years to go and watch top gear is too long. I know Top Gear is the best motoring show on tv, but 21 years has to be way ro long or a a incorrect calculation.
Any opinions on this lengthy wait?

In 21 years time Clarkson will be in a wheel chair and reviewing them but on the upside Richard wont be wearing childrens size clothing anymore.

speak to the right person and you can go to the next week's filming ;)
I've just never really had the desire to go down and watch them filming the show. I'd rather go down in the day and see them doing the tests on the circuit with the new cars (so I do sometimes :D)

4. You can lose the ticket
5. The people that make the show can die
6. You your self can die
7. I can go on forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever and forever so I'll just say
8. ETC.
*You can feel free to add to the list*

Well Clarkson said back in 2005 that the waiting time is 19 years. Maybe with the increased popularity, the que has grown even longer :D

I don't want to go to the show, I would rather just watch them driving.

RvR don't be so stupid. Framing tickets is not a jailable offense. Why would you go to jail for that.
Remember, THINK BEFORE YOU POST.

You can if they sue you. Right?

^^^ Who's going to sue someone over the price of a studio ticket? It'd be like throwing away a packet of cigarettes...nothing.
You'd get, at best, fine in small claims court if anyone could be bothered going through the process which would cost more than the fine imposed.
Once again...THINK BEFORE YOU POST.

And this is the UK, not America! :p We don't just sue people every 5 minutes for useless things!

I don't see how you could sue, considering the basic principles of English and American law are the same **unless your in Virginia or Louisianan**
You own those tickets after you purchase them. By framing the tickets your not doing anything illegal like scalping or making fakes. Ppl frame tickets and other "memorabilia" a lot and i'm not aware of anyone getting sued

Um...by framing we are talking about replicating the tickets, not literally 'framing' them & putting them on the wall. That's totally legal.
Copying & altering them still wouldn't be a big deal either. Like SubaKid said, it's not America where you can get sued for blinking the wrong way.

lmao! i feel like an arse
why would copying them allow you to remember to go in 21 years? i could see sticking the ******* on the wall so you always see it but copying?
