The Grand Tour

Tears and Cheers: The Grand Tour Finale Hits Us Right in the Feels! 😢🚗

The Grand Tour’s grand finale has left fans emotional as Clarkson, Hammond, and May bid goodbye after 22 iconic years on our screens!

After 22 years of exhilarating escapades behind the wheel, laugh-out-loud banter, and jaw-dropping car stunts, The Grand Tour is set to conclude its memorable journey. Tonight, fans around the globe will witness the much-anticipated release of 'One for the Road' on Amazon Prime Video, marking Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May’s final adventure as a trio. Their collaboration started way back on the BBC’s Top Gear and evolved into a cherished relationship that delivered laughter, thrills, and a hint of chaos to viewers worldwide. Whether you loved them or loathed them, there's no denying they've left an undeniable rubber-stamped mark on car television history.

The emotional rollercoaster packed into the finale is incredible; fans have taken to social media, expressing their heartfelt farewells as if they were bidding adieu to lifelong friends. One loyal viewer compared the finale to ending a night out, filled with joy but ultimately realizing you'll never meet at the bar again. Reflecting on this connection, the trio has continued to engage with their fans, thanking them for their unwavering support over two decades that truly felt like a drive on an abandoned highway—fast, fierce, and a bit unpredictable.

While the season may be coming to a close, James May has reportedly admitted he carries a sense of regret regarding the series finale. He reflected on their adventurous journey and wondered if perhaps they could have squeezed in one last cheeky road trip before bidding farewell. The finale has wisely chosen to divert from ending in Zimbabwe—a new twist for fans, returning instead to the nostalgic Kubu Island in Botswana, reminiscent of their iconic Top Gear special back in 2007, reminding everyone of where it all began.

As we prepare to wave goodbye to these beloved hosts, it's natural to reflect on their impact on the genre of car television. Like a roundabout, they’ve spun through various topics and entertaining moments, while also igniting passionate discussions, sometimes even sparking controversy. Whether sharing their love for petrolhead culture or inadvertently causing uproar, Clarkson, Hammond, and May have undoubtedly become as synonymous with car entertainment as the actual cars they drove.

In the world of automotive adventures, did you know that The Grand Tour accumulated over 40 million global viewers since 2016? And if that wasn't impressive enough, Clarkson, Hammond, and May have also engaged in philanthropic adventures, raising impressive sums for charity throughout their series run. As the credits roll on 'One for the Road', we can't help but hope this isn't the last we see from this infamous trio. Here's to hoping they’ll rev back into our lives when least expected!
