The Grand Tour will air on Amazon ‘as long as there is demand’

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘The Grand Tour’ will air on Amazon Prime Video for “as long as there is demand”.
The motoring TV series – which is fronted by former ‘Top Gear’ trio Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May – last aired in November, and Amazon bosses have vowed to keep making new series of the programme because viewers “love it”.
Amazon Studio boss Georgia Brown said: “The second thing that hasn’t changed at all since [we launched] in 2018, is we’re still sending three old blokes around the world playing with cars and our customers just love it.
“So we will keep doing it, as long as there is a demand for it!”
The show follows a similar format to Top Gear’s feature-length specials, as the trio travel to various locations across the globe taking part in motoring challenges.
Last year, James described ‘The Grand Tour’ as “like a sitcom with characters in”.
He said: “Our relationship is so old now and so established that we are a little bit like a sitcom with characters in.
“The viewers choose one to identify with or maybe two against the other. It is quite a simple childish mechanism that makes things work.”
James also admitted he, Jeremy and Richard aren’t “scared of cancel culture”, and insisted they are they are “reasonably progressive”.
He explained: “I don’t think we run scared of cancel culture but I suppose unconsciously just like everybody else we are re-assessing the way we think about things, which is no bad things in my view.
“We are not entrenched and haven’t dug ourselves in and said, ‘No we are living in the 1970s with 1970s attitudes. Make us a cup of tea, love.’
“We are quite modern people – except for Richard Hammond, who is stuck in 1955 in this E-type Jag. We are reasonably progressive.”
