Top Gear trio returns with "The Grand Tour" on Amazon Prime!

THE GRAND TOUR launches on 18 NOVEMBER!

Quote:

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May will launch The Grand Tour weekly, every Friday from 18th November exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. What could possibly go wrong?

I believe so. You get a free online trial of Amazon prime for the first month. So you may subscribe by 10th Nov and renew the subscription after first month. The subscription charges are also much lower than Netflix at ~10$/month and 100$/year.

Mod Note: Please do not post back to back. USe "Multi-quote" option instead. Thanks!

Woohoo!! I missed them, just like thousands of TG fans. Their brutal honesty, sarcasm, style and melodious British English are a fan's delight.

PS: Did i actually see James May drifting/driving fast?

Not sure if this has been discussed before...

Is there a reason why its called the Grand Tour?

Top Gear (T&G)
The Grand Tour (G&T or T&G&T)

Yay! Every Friday.

Yes, it will be weekly. While Netflix tends to dump entire seasons of its shows online at once for a binge watch, it looks like Amazon will try a piecemeal release. And I prefer it this way. You can look forward to the boys each week.

Finally!!

It has been such a long wait. TopGear was never about reviewing cars and giving proper buying advice to people. But it was always something that would excite an enthusiast because it was presented by people who were passionate about cars themselves. After the trio left Topgear and with the arrival of the new hosts, Topgear just sort of lost it's magic. But now I can be assured that the enthusiast inside of us is ready to be excited by this trio again.

The description makes me look forward to the TG premier - cars and vintage aircraft.

I'm guessing we'll only be able to watch this on Amazon Prime.

Btw, a new teaser is out :

Can't. Wait. For. This.

Been far too long without the 3 middle aged men falling about and everything being set on fire

The trailer looks fan-bleeding-tastic. As long as their chemistry is intact, I couldn't care less even if they went about cycling in the streets of London. That's how much I miss these blokes. Looks like it's going to be absolutely awesome.

stanjohn123 · 7th October 2016, 22:57

I just saw the Trailer and it looks amazing. Actually I thought it felt much better than the Top Gear show too. Someone's legs are trembling now.

Trailer 2 is out, and it looks sooo promising

I have one question. If we are subscribed to Amazon Prime in India, then we will get these shows?
