The Grand Tour – the new name for Clarkson, Hammond and May

Ok, this could be the longest, most drawn out launch of a TV show in history.  After the much publicised split with the BBC we know that Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May have gone it alone and created their own new TV show on Amazon.  Today, we finally got a name.


The Grand Tour is what it will be called, but it’s still 4 odd months away – coming in “Autumn” which means “Spring” for us Aussies.

Clarkson made the announcement on Twitter

While on Facebook their “likes” have gone quickly from 70 when I clicked to something crazy in the thousands already.

And they shared this video of the “other” ideas they had for names.

Bring it on I say, but can we fast forward to then?  The waiting is killing me.
