Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond have named their new Amazon Prime show. The name is THE GRAND TOUR.
“Thing is,” said Jeremy Clarkson, “We’ll be travelling the world hosting each episode in a different country, from a giant tent. It’s a sort of ‘grand tour,’ if you like. So we’ve decided to call it ‘The Grand Tour.’”
According to Amazon, the new show will take place around the world and some segments of it will be in studio. But now comes the surprise because each episode will have a different studio, in a different location. And this is awesome.
Amazon will announce the filming locations soon, and it will hold a sweepstakes this summer for people to win tickets to be there. Moving the studio for each episode isn’t a big deal for Amazon because they have lots of places across many countries. As a result, the audience will be different and this is nice.
James May admitted to being underwhelmed by the name. “I wanted to call it ‘Nigel,’ or ‘Roger.’ We needed a name, and they’re names.”
Richard Hammond was more positive. “I already love camping,” he enthused, “But this is something else. We are like our pioneering and prospecting forebears, sallying forth into a new frontier of broadcasting, and making our home where…” But at this point Clarkson and May strangled him with a guy rope.
