So have we. But it looks like we&#8217;ve got a few months to go until our favorite shows from the Beeb return with new episodes.<\/p>\n<p>After having been spied filming a segment <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/08\/report-top-gear-seen-filming-segment-on-erupting-iceland\/\">atop an active volcano<\/a> in Iceland, <em>Top Gear<\/em> is &#8211; according to its own magazine &#8211; confirmed to begin airing its latest season this coming June. (In the meantime we can wish Jeremy Clarkson a happy 50th birthday, which he celebrated on Sunday.)<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Top Gear<\/em> scheduling was rather expected, but it now appears that some setbacks have forced rival program <em>Fifth Gear<\/em> to be delayed until the same month. The troubled show was expected to air its new season &#8211; with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/25\/five-alive-fifth-gear-reportedly-set-to-return-in-april\/\">new format and two fewer hosts<\/a> &#8211; later this month, but according to an entry on anchor Tiff Needell&#8217;s Twitter page, the impending British elections have forced a schedule change. So come June, it looks like we&#8217;ll be knickers-deep in British motoring television, but we&#8217;ll just have to sit tight until then.<\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.finalgear.com\/news\/2010\/04\/09\/fifth-gear-not-back-until-june\/?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=fifth-gear-not-back-until-june\">FinalGear.com<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/12\/top-gear-and-fifth-gear-reportedly-back-on-the-air\/\"><i>Top Gear<\/i> and <i>Fifth Gear<\/i> reportedly back on the air in June<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Mon, 12 Apr 2010 07:57:00 EST.
