Now has an official name!

The Grand Tour

"After months of deliberation and lots of useful suggestions from the public, for which the guys are very grateful, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May have decided that, because they are taking their new Amazon Prime Show around the world, it will be called The Grand Tour.

Not only will the guys travel to different locations, but for the first time ever the studio audience recordings will travel every week, all housed within a giant tent. Amazon customers will have the chance to be in the audience when tickets are released through prize draws this summer."

Personally can't wait for this should be great fun. :cheers::thumb:

Yup, Clarkson, Hammond & May might have been big at the BBC but their amazon rating will be much less!:nod:
BBC should axe Evans & Co and bring back CHM plc on a lower salary but with more viewers.:wave:
They have flogged repeats on the defunct BBC3 to death!!:rolleyes:

The old Top Gear was always reasonably amusing but towards the end it was getting a little bit tired with the same old things every week.

I think they might struggle a bit unless they can bring something new to the show. :)

I hope they fall flat on their face.

I'd seriously like to give Clarkson a smack in the mouth and the other two are just irritants.

Which is just my POV so probably worthless to mention ;)

As annoying as I find them at times, I'll still probably tune in and watch it. Always enjoyed Top Gear, so fingers crossed for The Grand Tour :D

Although I have to say, I'm a little disappointed that the name wasn't some kind of pun!

I did hear from a mate who is an ex-Ad guru for CHM ltd that it should be Gear Top just to take the pee?

This is going around on Reddit,

Top Gear = TG
The Grand Tour = TGT
Top Gear Two = TGT

Coincidence? I think not. ;)

Mind you, look hard enough and you could probably get Half Live 3 out of it somehow. :lol:

watching Yellow paint drying, I think, was more entertaining. :sleep:

I always enjoyed the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car, I hope they do that in some form or other. Guess they may not be able to though!
