"I've been watching it quite regularly since we stopped," James May told Digital Spy.
Maybe that's why he tuned in to watch a younger crowd on the BBC. Of course, The Grand Tour’s production is entirely dependent on the gang’s ability to travel (the clue’s in the title of the show) and with coronavirus severely hampering (well, completely stopping) international travel, season five is going to be negatively impacted.Ĭlarkson said as much on Twitter in early March: "We have one pretty much ready to go and when this virus business is settled, we will head off to do two more." That would have been a really crappy way to go." I'm at a disadvantage because it's a much shorter journey to my vital organs. "You could literally see it tracking up my leg. My feet were very red and it went through my legs. I got it from climbing into the water and then I realised my legs were hurting. "It's one of those on the list of crap conditions I've had.

Nothing to report at the moment, but we'll keep our eyes and ears peeled. #TheGrandTour- The Grand Tour January 8, 2020 Yes, Season 4 is made up of epic specials. No, we don’t know when it’s coming out yet. "If you're watching The Grand Tour from Sri Lanka, Scotland is as exotic and beautiful as Sri Lanka is from Scotland, so there's always going to be a large part of the audience which finds anywhere in the world fascinating."Īnd hey, anything that gets the hosts to film new episodes faster seems like a good thing.Yes, another special is coming. May says that being a bit closer to the home for the hosts doesn't matter that much – after all, viewers on Amazon Prime Video could be watching it from anywhere. The trio also took part in a drag race on a runway somewhere in south Scotland, for which the cars mentioned were apparently modified, and were seen towing caravans at one point too. To film the upcoming Scotland special during the pandemic, the crew formed a bubble, and no one caught Covid-19 during the shoot.

That bodes well for the future – and who knows, maybe we'll start seeing episodes of The Grand Tour season 4 land more regularly than once every year again.

While it might be a long wait until the trio and their crew can head to more exotic locations, the intent is to keep making episodes in locations where it's easier to pull off – hence why a Wales-filmed special probably makes sense. The hosts couldn't go to the pub after filming the episode, which must've been a challenge. There were complicated systems set up for cleaning everything and it was a bit tiresome going through lots of procedures and being tested every day, but it didn’t get in the way of filming to be honest."

Later, the hosts were spot in Leamington in England, filming near a retail park. They were each driving classic French cars, which hints a little at the theme for the episode. That's not all that's coming from Clarkson and pals in the foreseeable future, though.Īs of April 2021, another special for The Grand Tour was filming in the UK – the three hosts were spotted filming in Llandrindod Wells, Wales, by The Grand Tour Fans YouTube channel.
