Hammond said in an interview that this episode is part one of two and in the intro Clarkson said that the only places they could go are parts of the UK and Israel so I'm thinking the next one will be there, again.
@@jkflipflop98 Add to that the presence of CGI for the actual James May shot. Look at his shoes right before he opens the door, you can clearly see it's CGI.
Honestly, the filling of May's caravan was a good prank but I'm more impressed how nicely sealed it is (since there are no leaks), how much water pressure the walls can hold and how much weight it can handle because that water is HEAVY.
Obviously it’ all scripted. No caravan would be that watertight and durable, as you say, water is heavy. Obviosuly it must have been reinforced and sealed beforehand. It’s showbusiness, not real life.
"So let's go ahead and have a look at that spiky building up there?". Camera pan to some random building miles away.... Me: 😆🤣 idk why am I laughing at that.
@@Hew1888 its hardly boring, your just reading into too much and merely looking for something to complain about. It's always been scripted, they've proved if it wasn't scripted it would be boring and its not like its all completely scripted
What i love about these 3 is that they make any bad situation into a comedy and its absolutely priceless there will never be a trio like these three again b/e we can relate to the situations they get themselves into....
In life it is rare to have three mates that have the chance to enjoy fucking about and enjoying themselves and it’s even rarer to be able to film it. Thank you for your work.
For nearly 20 years, I've always referred to them as the automotive version of Compo, Clegg and Foggy. And rightly so. The chemistry, cocking about and of course, the pranks is what gives us a reason to tune in on their daft, schoolboy antics. Long may they continue to entertain us.
as someone who has an old car, i can understand why they don't do too many of these xD as fun as they are to drive they can be quite a pain, especially automatics, which they always seem to use.
Bought a cherry 78 continental mark v diamond jubilee about a year ago. I think i like it better than anything on the road. Who needs horsepower? when you have S I Z E
Loved the way Clarkson's caravan detached and headed for the gorge and all but disappeared. His question "what's missing in this picture?" And May's response while laughing hysterically literally made my day. I didn't think the video could get any better after May got washed away from opening the door and later when Hammond managed to roll over his caravan from a literal standstill.
I'm pretty sure the cat-and-mouse duo might have heard that, but I don't give a toss, that remark is hilarious! Now that I think about it, I wonder how that would fit in one of their cartoons...
I just watched it yesterday and the part where May got swept away in a torrent, and when Clarkson’s entire tow bar and trailer sailed into a ditch had me crying from laughter.
@@Elwaves2925 yeah, you are right lol. I do understand it that some people don't really liked it lol. I thought it was pretty funny. Sorry for my English, i am from the Netherlands.
@@Jens_Roadster You have to differentiate. There are those who are always whining and wishing for the old "Top Gear Specials" back and those who completely ignore the pandemic and the restrictions that come with it. Personally, I found the episode very enjoyable and look forward to the next one.
I love these 3 together and I have been watching their shows since they first started. I live in the united states and I watched BBC TOP GEAR every day. My kids couldn't believe I was watching a show about cars. I love old muscle cars and classic cars. However GRAND TOUR they finally really got to be more of their self and I laughed my ass off loving every minute of it. Bring it on boys I'm ready for more.!!!
Jeremy's Lincoln is actually one of my favorite American boats. My friend has had one for over 20 years. Very nice cars if you can handle the 2 degree turning radius...
This episode was a lot better than i was expecting given the circumstances. The setting was bit boring for me as i live in UK but they made it work so well. Can't wait for the next one
1:08 this was the funniest bit when they put water in James caravan and that water knocked James may off his feet after that it was absolutely hilarious
The key advantage to these old, bad cars was the V8s. They only ever used a fraction of the horsepower and hence lasted forever. Rust in the Northeast US was always an issue.
I love this group 👍. Just awesome. Totally entertaining. Even back then, back in the days of Top Gear, it was always a pleasure to watch 👍👍. Greetings from a Fan in Germany
I just want to say. When James opened the door to his caravan..... i rewatched that several times.... and i might have died of oxygen deprivation had i kept it up.
4:25 I simply love how casually that trailer came out and he suddenly decided to go on a 'solo hike'🤣🤣🤣 May was right it was totally a "Tom and Jerry" situation
I have to say this was by far the least ridiculously over the top special of the trio in the grand tour and it was as entertaining as the best specials ever done on TG. Very much a return to the familiar recipe that made the world love these three British explorers... immensely enjoyed it and simply cannot wait for the next special...
Man I love how you can feel their frindship. They way Clarkson screams "Ham has gone upside down again" when the boat falls over is so unprofessional and wholesome. Also he never calls him Ham in front of the camera, if I'm not mistaken
Do you think James enjoyed his time in Scotland as much as Jeremy or Richard?
I don't think so
YES
Yes every minute
"his time in Scotland"? Yes, I think so.
Yes ! 🤣
I love Jeremy's ending "we will be back. We don't know where, we don't know when but we will. Goodbye"

@@brandonlink6568 I hope not. This episode sucked major ass.
@@brandonlink6568 oh no
@@Vladpryde it was pretty boring
@@Vladpryde I mean there is a pandemic going on. They are very limited in what they can do. At least probably when they filmed this.
James opening the caravan to be washed away is one of the all time great moments
nah i think when he built that fish tank in the back of his car and it kept spilling on his head as he drove was better XD
Too staged to be funny.
@@hunterfunter47 slow it down you can see the door opens before he touches it. bit of editing wizardry there.
Shame it's a green screen May pasted into the scene falling though. There's no one there when the door opens.
@@oldfrend Jeremy’s brake checks made it better.😂
James’s getting washed away is hilarious
Well the roof seal was leaking lol
One of the best sabotages I've ever seen!
But how can the caravan hold all that water, I thought an old one like that would be leaking like crazy.
@@jkflipflop98 Add to that the presence of CGI for the actual James May shot. Look at his shoes right before he opens the door, you can clearly see it's CGI.
That one honestly proves why these guys have there jobs

surely it was staged ... x)
If you look closely the door burst open before he could actually pull out twist the handle. Scripted obviously.
Water comes out of the door already, I have seens american wall paint that can hold more water
I know I was impressed by that too! When your engineering brain takes over your sense of humour 😂 it was also hilarious 🤣
"Uhh, Hammond, I've got an idea, there's literally nothing we can do"
Classic Jeremy.
Pure gold. 😂❤️
"So let's go ahead and have a look at that spiky building up there?". Camera pan to some random building miles away....
Me: 😆🤣 idk why am I laughing at that.
Wich episode and season is this?
And moment later, hammond car was also stuck
A very praiseworthy way of saying 'I cannot and will not help you'.
The day the boys retire will be a sad day all over the world.😭😭😭
Retire due to old age? Definitely sad. But if the hamster die in his last accident, that would be a big sad.
@@dan_draft yeah for sure.
I'm already dreading that day there content is great
Retire, they were working?
( j/k lol )
Indeed!
This is the second time I've seen that 'dirty' trick of the boys filling James' trailer with water and I still nearly choked with laughter!
You mean "James May Cleaning" trick
I nearly switched it of at that point.....
Far to scripted

Jeremy losing his caravan and the reaction from James is the funniest bit in this imo
Hammonds little laugh when he's filling up the caravan with water 🤣🤣
Sounds like Tigger to me @ 1:09
Woody Woodpecker
@@flexvision2000 lol!
''Hammond's gone upside-down again!'' the rallying-cry of Hammond's entire career.
Maybe they need to get him when they have trouble rolling a James Bond car next time?
Would make a great t-shirt
That's it in a nutshell, right there.
I think we all wish this show could go on forever.
For nearly 20 years, I've always referred to them as the automotive version of Compo, Clegg and Foggy. And rightly so. The chemistry, cocking about and of course, the pranks is what gives us a reason to tune in on their daft, schoolboy antics. Long may they continue to entertain us.
second hand car challenges are the best. Please do more of these adventures with older cars.
Especially American 70s cars which nobody makes fun of whatsoever. Of course British 70s cars aren't much better are they?
Ahhh was that what this is? Makes alot of sense now.
as someone who has an old car, i can understand why they don't do too many of these xD
as fun as they are to drive they can be quite a pain, especially automatics, which they always seem to use.
"Oh that's hilarious"
-said Jeremy calmly.
"Hammond's gone upside down again!" lmao
What's even hilarious, but not really, is you can tell he flipped it on purpose.. 🤦♂️
@@snavisTM apparently that wasn't scripted
again!!!!!🤣😂
I watched the whole episode and I am still here on TH-cam watching the highlights! These guys make me happy!!!
This episode's best stuff was definitely those land yachts they drove. Utterly magnificent machines.
Bought a cherry 78 continental mark v diamond jubilee about a year ago. I think i like it better than anything on the road. Who needs horsepower? when you have S I Z E
So, Hammond somehow managed to roll a vehicle travelling 0 miles an hour...
Yup! Surprised?
:-D
He did the same in Mongolia, remember?
But, coming from Hammond, that's not surprising.
@@Lgs260495 John was moving though, the wheels were spinning, here though, he rolled something motionless...

Mind u Its a 2HP boat as well XD

James not having a good time is always the best😭💀
It's high praise that, as someone who has 0 interest in cars or how they work, the grand tour is something I'm constantly looking forward too.
It never gets old watching these clips, we had so much fun but it was so wet.
We want all these on DVD 🤣 bloody brilliant
This special was a return to form for the lads. Wilman said it was like something from 10+ years ago and I totally agree.
Hammonds gone upside down again....literally crying of laughter on that one...instant classic hahah
Hammond childlike giggles of joy are hilarious 😄
Hammond's giggle gets me every time!
Thanks guys, you've been a part of my life since I was a child.
"If you put it in a Tom & Jerry episode, it will be absurd"
I laughed at this more than I thought I would laugh
I'm pretty sure the cat-and-mouse duo might have heard that, but I don't give a toss, that remark is hilarious!
Now that I think about it, I wonder how that would fit in one of their cartoons...
We want a deleted scenes cut!
Yes, please!
Call it a "James May" Cut with all the "boring" bits included.
BIG FACTS 🤞 💯 🏁
I just watched it yesterday and the part where May got swept away in a torrent, and when Clarkson’s entire tow bar and trailer sailed into a ditch had me crying from laughter.
This is the best episode you guys have done in years, sometimes less really is more. More of this please!
Have to say this episode was actually quite good. Very entertaining

The best part was when Jeremy was dying laughting over Richard sinking the boat.
*"HAMMOND'S GONE UPSIDE DOWN AGAIN!"*
Richards evil giggle at 1:10 sent me hahaha what a child
that scene where hammond is towing the bridge perfectly sums up jeremy, james and hammond.
When Jeremy lost his Caravan in the trails I was on the floor 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
these guys have had the best job in the world for years :)
The chaps have still got it!
They are literal children and i love it
Pure comedy gold when James opened his caravan door
“Hammond has gone upside down again” gets me every time 😂
Put some fish in there.James falling on his back Priceless
_I'm sorry, that was HILLARIOUS!_
[Chef's kiss] 🤣

They made it work so well they had to script every single "spontaneous" event from the pranks to the crashes.
3:56 One of the greatest cinematic moments in the history of British television.
Top trio miss these 3 and there adventures
“Jeremy, did you know your car is talking” actually had me laughing out loud, not gonna lie 😂😂
1:08 this was the funniest bit when they put water in James caravan and that water knocked James may off his feet after that it was absolutely hilarious
James May getting knocked over by a wall of water is one of the best things ever committed to tape! 😂😂
This special was great fun to watch, loved it :)
Boy I love those old cars!
Cant watch TOP GEAR without them!!!!!
It’s been six years now.
That blue caravan feels like place to live at a good wooden cabin there.
these old men really crack me up
luv em to bits
This was probably the best episode of this season so far i think. You guys really delivered!!
When Jeremy says Hammonds gone upside down again it gets me everytime
These three just crack me up!
They are getting so old and I love it.
Jeremy is literally filming him when he says we can always tell him the roof was leaking
Taped it for blackmailing purposes.
I damn near pissed myself when James opened the caravan door and fell on his arse! 🤣🤣🤣
4:33 - What if that would have happened on the A9? Hammond "well there would have been shouting". Scripted or not i love this trio and this damn show.
Many thanks for the upload. I haven't laughed so genuinely happily for a long long time
Watching Jeremy literally ‘ROFL’ is unbelievable
There’s honestly no funnier show in existence. Prove me wrong. 😂
The key advantage to these old, bad cars was the V8s. They only ever used a fraction of the horsepower and hence lasted forever. Rust in the Northeast US was always an issue.
If they only ever used a fraction of the horsepower, why do/did they then use such insane amounts of fuel?
One of my favorite specials so far
I love this group 👍. Just awesome. Totally entertaining. Even back then, back in the days of Top Gear, it was always a pleasure to watch 👍👍. Greetings from a Fan in Germany
1:09 i love Hammond's mischievous giggles
I am honestly surprised at how well sealed it was for the water to not leak !!
Surely it was staged, like 70% of the episodes?
@@bartdegryse9345 It's entertainment, no reason to be 100% genuine
Hammond sinking the boat was in my opinion one of the funniest if not the funniest moments of the show.
Honestly, James' face as he watches the two is even better... Asking himself why he's on the same planet as they are - and even on the same show.
I just want to say. When James opened the door to his caravan..... i rewatched that several times.... and i might have died of oxygen deprivation had i kept it up.
The world's best trio

Just finished watching The Lochdown, and it's sensationally good!
5:10 that laugh brought me to tears
You are best, we love you!!!
Just about to watch 'One for the road.'
I will miss you gentlemen. Safe travels my friends I never met.
2:57 noticed the guy wiping his outside wall just so he can be up close to the guys lol
An extra, or what is known in the industry as a ‘background artist’.
@@AtheistOrphan nah its edinburgh you can tell hes only doing that to be near them
I thoroughly enjoying every show I watch with this bunch of guys on it
Overall this was good. The three of them making a mess of the most basic things will never fail to entertain
Nice to see the Trio's war on caravans is still alive and well.
"Why do they need such long hoses in fire engines?" this keeps cracking me up
Most impressive thing about this clip is Hammond's pitch-perfect replication of Frank Gorshin's Riddler giggle.
LockDown was Great Episode, Really funn, Worth the Watch :D
I agree with Richard. When I come across a gravel road I know I'm going to have fun
James May: *falls off
Me: Syria flashback
Haha, he wasn’t injured this time.
@@shriharihudli I know

Nice i love this show from algeria🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿💕💕
You kinda know lots of this is scripted, but James looks like he genuinely wasn’t anticipating that tsunami! Best part fall ever 🤣
Just pure brilliance
