Damn, the Nurbrugrgigining track has killed 200 people?? How long has it been open? That thing looks insane. It's basically just an insane twisty road with no speed limits and crazy fast cars.

I don't know, but their musical scores are AWSOME. Remember when he finally reached the top of that Scottish mountain?

Yup, that was nice too. But I can't find a list anywhere of what music they use.

It's from the Patriot trailer if I can remember right. Very commonly used (it's been used on lots of other trailers as well.) They also used two Bjork songs during the Nurnberg testing. Woot!

Edit: It's called Escape by Craig Armstrong.

Edit2: The chick behind Jeremy at the very end in the red is a hottie.

Just watching a re-run on BBC2 of this episode.

I just wanted to say that if you can imagine what 8 odd channels with this sort of quality is like then you wouldn't mind paying the TV licence fee either!

:thumbsup: and :beer: to the BBC!
