The Grand Tour season 7 presenters on 'surreal moment' of getting Jeremy Clarkson's seal of approval — 'he loves the new episodes'
The Grand Tour returns to Prime Video with three brand-new presenters, but don't worry — they've been given the Jeremy Clarkson seal of approval multiple times over.
Spoilers ahead for The Grand Tour season 7 episode 1. The iconic trio of Richard Hammond, James May, and Jeremy Clarkson have parted ways with BBC's Top Gear and transitioned to Amazon's streaming platform, The Grand Tour. Their handpicked replacements include James Engelsman, Thomas Holland, and Francis Bourgeois, known for their work on the YouTube channel Throttle House and a train TikTok superstar, respectively.
Despite initial skepticism, the new trio's chemistry and chemistry have impressed critics and Clarkson himself, who has been their staunchest supporter. In a surreal moment, Clarkson watched their YouTube videos and TikTok clips, expressing admiration for their content. During the episode, the new presenters visited Clarkson's Cotswolds pub, The Farmer's Dog, to request a tent for the show.
Clarkson, ever the generous host, granted their request but emphasized that they would need to share the space with customers. The trio left feeling like "homeless" presenters, but Clarkson's endorsement and praise have undoubtedly provided a significant boost to their confidence and credibility.
