‘The Grand Tour’ Producer Andy Wilman Promises “Weepy” Final Episode From Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond & James May — Edinburgh

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May are planning to shuffle off the Amazon Prime Video stage with more of a whimper than a bang, according to The Grand Tour’s executive producer.

Andy Wilman said the final episode featuring the Top Gear alumni will be an “unplugged,” emotional affair when it premieres on Amazon Prime Video on September 13.

Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Wilman said: “They wanted to go a bit back to 2005 or 2006 … leave the dynamite and just go [to Africa] with shit old cars.”

He added: “Not much happens, I would say. Anyone who thinks they’re going to get Avengers: Endgame is going to be disappointed because it is deliberately gentle. But their camaraderie is next level.”

The final road trip was filmed in Zimbabwe and Botswana, the location of their first Top Gear special. Wilman said it is a nostalgic trip, with Clarkson, Hammond, and May reflecting on their 22-year relationship and imagining their future careers, including joking that Hammond will end up becoming a pantomime star.

“They say goodbye better than any presenters could ever say goodbye, because they’re so close. They can take the piss out of one another and then be emotional as well. It’s quite weepy,” Wilman explained.

He played a teaser for the finale, which featured Clarkson telling audiences: “So for the last time, here we go.” “We are lucky, and Amazon have been really good about this, that they will celebrate our goodbye,” Wilman added.

Although the presenters are leaving Amazon after eight years, it is not the end of the road for The Grand Tour , with the streamer preparing to re-invent the show with Studio Lambert.
