But he mentioned on Drivetribe recently he doesn't like old cars, he doesn't own any and most of his cars are electric now. And he's messing around on Food Tribe making sandwiches for a fairly small audience. Also he bought a pub and it's all modern looking with posh food. None of which matches his Top Gear character I think.

    Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May were possibly the best group together when it comes to cars. They each bring a different perspective to the table and their on screen chemistry is second to none. Jeremy Clarkson has truly created a show that is HIM. There will never be another and the BBC continuation of Top Gear is NOT the same. Was so glad Amazon continued with the Grand Tour and hope the old boys have a few years left. Truly amazing group of guys, film crew, and locations they did. Best to all the cast and crew.

      The main thing is the interaction between the three and their antics. For me the lamest part of Top Gear or The Grand Tour was any serious car reviews. Just put these guys in scenarios that will bring out their banter or frustrate them. Either what you're talking about, or when they put them in pieces of crap and send them on a fool's errand - often pranking each other along the way. That's when these guys are entertaining. So ditch any serious reviews and do all specials as they're doing, or just have them sitting together and talking. They're going all-specials now, maybe because they're still young enough to do it, once they're too old for that we can just watch them sitting in a nursing home talking nonsense.
