So there was nothing to worry about after all! After the kerfuffle surrounding the end of the three presenting TG at the Beeb, I honestly thought that wherever they went nothing would be the same again in the motor show universe. Well I am happy to report here that I was wrong, sorry let me write that again properly. Yep it needed the capitals. Amazon threw a lot of money at GT, probably 10 times the budget that TG enjoyed and today there must be some very happy execs in that organisation. The show is at once familiar and different, Richard Hammond's boyish charm my wife is happy , James May's nerdy appeal and Jezza's sardonic take on everything - all is as it was, but there is also an excitement to GT that TG lacked, a production value that exceeds anything that has gone before as far as a magazine show is concerned.

I'm not going to go into any details, no spoilers here, but the whole show is spectacular, great cars, great music, great scenery and most importantly of all - great presenters.

The Grand Tour Season 2 Episode 10 - Funniest Moments

How Much Have You Seen? How many episodes of The Grand Tour have you seen? It was announced on 16 November that both "The American" and "Celebrity Brain Crash" would not be returning and will be replaced for the second series as they had been unpopular with the viewers. Hammond's crash in Switzerland and Clarkson's pneumonia, both of which were talked about between series, are also often used as a joke.

Episode 4 of Series 2, Conversation Street was turned into an awards ceremony as this was the last episode of Clarkson, Hammond and May gave out awards also known as the "Nigel Award" to cars and moments in on various aspects. The nominee and winners are:. In January the team were spotted filming in Colombia for a delayed special with three 4x4s. On 27 November , it was announced via the show's Facebook page that season 3 will premiere on 18 January Clarkson, Hammond and May had been presenters on BBC 's Top Gear, both as part of the rotating hosts of the original , and permanent hosts for the rebooted series up through Under them, the show had an estimated worldwide audience of million, and listed by Guinness World Records as the highest-viewed factual television programme.

Both May and Hammond affirmed they would not return to Top Gear without Clarkson, even though the BBC offered them lucrative salaries to remain on for additional series. Shortly after his separation from the BBC, Clarkson stated his intent to start a new car show, saying "I have lost my baby but I shall create another.

And why we needn't be too sad about the end of the studio-based shows

I don't know who the other parent will be or what the baby will be like. In July , Clarkson announced he had signed a deal with Amazon to develop a new car show that followed a similar format as Top Gear , with both Hammond and May joining him as co-hosts, and Wilman producing. Wilman stated that Amazon promised them to have the freedom they wanted to make the show how they wanted along with the necessary budget. Additionally, by using a subscription-based service over an advert-based network, they would not be beholden to commercial pressure for their advertisers.

The show's name, The Grand Tour , was revealed in May Clarkson said the name brought to mind the tradition of Grand Tours , and reflected how the show would travel to several different countries to film. Initially, the show's format was to present individual television films , using location shooting without studio segments.

They would be able to use local audience members, and would give the hosts the opportunity to explore the local culture around cars. On 13 December it was announced that the show had been renewed for a fourth series.

Alongside this Clarkson, Hammond and May were all going to start producing individual shows for Amazon based on their own interests. Wilman said that lawyers for Amazon were very mindful of any perceived similarities in segments to Top Gear , requiring changes to the format and regular segments. For example, the lawyers said they could test cars on a test track, but they could not post the times using hand-written signs as they had done on Top Gear ; instead, they used a digital leaderboard.

Many outlets falsely reported that the BBC had explicitly told the crew they could not have celebrities come on the show and race around a track. An episode was censored by Amazon Prime Video in India because it included footage that could have been construed as offensive by the Indian audience. The footage showed a windshield that was made of a cow's body organs and removal of the footage resulted in a significant reduction in the length of an episode.

During the first series, the studio segments were filmed in various locations around the world. Studio recording for the first series began in Johannesburg , South Africa on 17 July Further studio recording took place in Rotterdam on 22 October and Lapland on 3 November For the second series, following Clarkson's pneumonia and Hammond's car crash, the producers decided that there would no longer be a travelling tent.

It also would be useful for new features such as Celebrity Face Off. For third series, the traveling tent will again stay put and return to the Great Tew Estate, near Chipping Norton.

In mid DHL began sponsoring the transport costs of the tent and mobile studio. During filming for some episodes in the second series of the show, the production team suffered major technical issues with the tent lighting, which threatened to derail filming. It feels uncomfortably hubristic" but once the presenters were in the tent "Normal service has been resumed" and that "It seemed to me that Grand Tour is a TV show that wants to be — and quite possibly should be — a movie".

Episode 2 was somewhat less favourably received by fans and critics. The Telegraph wrote about the Jordan segment: Richard Hammond was criticised by Stonewall , Peter Tatchell , and Olly Alexander , amongst others, for a comment he made in episode six where he implied that men who eat ice-cream are homosexual. Kevin Yeoman of Screen Rant gave the show a positive review, stating "Fans can rest assured Top Gear hasn't gone anywhere, it's just hiding out at Amazon under a different name. Clarkson, Hammond, and May's love for machinery According to Anderson, Top Gear had "become even better", whereas The Grand Tour "seemed more scripted, less natural and at stages, forced Anderson continues that in-studio segments became repetitive quickly, particularly "Celebrity Brain Crash", also noting that all three hosts seem to spend far too much time needling each other, and test driver Mike Skinner offers no worthwhile commentary.

Digital Spy was positive of series 2, episode 1, calling it "An understated premiere for a show that feels like it's finding its feet. Clarkson's suggestion of a new nickname for May — "Dingleberry Handpump" — failed to raise a titter even among the super-fans gathered for the London premiere" but also said that "for each wobble, there are just as many moments when The Grand Tour manages the clever trick Top Gear could pull off at its best: Radio Times has criticised the gender balance of guests on the "Celebrity Face Off" segment.
