If Hammond was trying to make his garden look like the Somme he totally nailed it.
The WW1 re-enactment society will love that
@@radish9261 ww1
This is the first comment I've ever replied to. Just needed to say, that was hilarious.
@Lucien Swift yeah, it looks more like passchendaele
Well done with this comment
It's funny that James May, the most old fashioned and traditional of the trio is now a RUclipsr and owns electric cars. While Clarkson has become a farmer and Hammond has become a gardener.
I think May has just realized his voice since he left Top Gear and is just having fun while exploring what he has interests in.
@@TheClonedspork 100%. In the last 2 years i think a huge number of fans have come to realise how unintentionally funny and entertainig james is
@@ethanharding7332 Especially with some of the non Top Gear/Grand Tour content James has done
@@TheClonedspork Yeah James seems to really enjoy making his media content, Clarkson and Hammond seem like they just want to live a more quiet life.
@@mrjohnnyk True.
Hammond literally said he would immediately retire given all the money no limits for any project. Of course, they all could do that now anyway. Without frugality. So, my guess is he wouldn’t actually do it.
So...Clarkson's becoming a farmer, Hamster a landscape/gardener and James an influencer?
James is getting younger as the days go by
Holy that summed it up
James is just becoming more James like
@@jardanijonovich1951 He was born at age 100 and is getting younger since.
@@jardanijonovich1951 You mean like Benjamin Button?
Richard has literally turned into the stereotype of the old rich english homsteader.
-The boots
-The pants
-The Jacket
-The hat
-The Hair
-The Rover
-The dog
-The mud
Just like Keith Flint did!
trousers. not pants.
And the classic cars too! 😊
@@RedCyanPhotos Only the Rover qualifies.
Also, it'd be an estate/land owner.. we dont have homesteads in the UK.
Sounds like Hammo is having a helluva midlife crisis. All of his cars are either broken or breaking, he's taken up a new hobby that has disappointed him, but he's got a dog.
And he’s talking about retirement. Although they could all afford to never work again....
Hes gonna keep going another 40 years minimum
He's doing alright. There's a certain satisfaction in knowing that even if you kick the dog, only when he deserves it, he will come back more loyal than ever.
Does that mean the cars not coming on then
underrated comment
well, NoRtHyY, they've been either in 2 seperate pieces sitting in a garage, have been waterlogged to the point in which they need to be scrapped or have a broken transfer box....so thats a no.
@@yeoldeseawitch oh
@@yeoldeseawitch Trigger you missed the joke, James would often say this phrase on top gear and grand tour
DIY Mike no You didn’t understood his part of the joke, he was answering like Hammond would’ve done
Why does hammond dress like he’s a brittish lord ready for fox hunt?
Because he's a relative of Great Uncle tall ;)
Markus & Connor. Well if you’ve seen his actual great uncle, you would know he just wants to be just like him. A British lord farmer
he lives in the countryside, its how people dress here. very old fashioned what what.
I was more thinking Brian Johnson from ACDC.
Well he does live in a castle now
Coming up on tonights show:
James. Has a beard.
Richard. Has a beard.
And I.... Have a beard.
😭😭😭
I miss those words 😩

We’ve all got beards down here.
*and I.. grow my third eyebrow
On tonight's program:
Hammond keeps his thumbs out of his pockets
James sits behind a Ferrari
And I try socialism
Underrated af

Why do I read this in Jeremy’s voice
@@SelfMadeDocumentary years of conditioning

Well, technically Oliver still is in driving condition so Hammond can use him as daily driver.

It's probably for the best the audience didn't vote for Hammond to modify Oliver as a drag car. Not like he has a terrific track record with those...
Or hillclimb, or off-road...
@@jaanikaapa6925 Or any wheeled vehicle for that matter.
@@Tracert-mc1hu Or floating.
@@jaanikaapa6925 He also fell off that horse that one time
@@sorenslothe Also I remember him crashing a helicopter when he was learning... I might be wrong though. Just remember something on those lines from the TG mag. Also armored vehicles didn't work out so well for him either.
Maybe he should just get a driver?
Richard could have Jeremy clear away the disappointing plants with a shotgun.
But they will disappear when he comes out with it.
hahaha!
Allow him a shotgun and Jeremy will use an NLAW ...
it has ceased to exist!"
He could also borrow his fighter jet lawn ornament
His Morgan was destroyed in a flood - thats Hammond speak for “I crashed into a lake”
Wouldn't a wooden car float? Lol

@@axeman2638 the thought of it sticks in your craw don't it.
@@jimdavison4077, if anyone could sink a boat the hamster could.
He was a bit dodgy on the subject…
The whole time I'm thinking, "Will someone pet that dog?" Every time Richard moves his hand the dog is like, "Me?"
Acoording to people on YT comments, It's considered illegal to pet someone's dog in 2020/2021 because of he dogs might get corona.

@@bobcostas6272I bet you even said "mask up to stop the spread!" back in 2018 and before.

@@automation7295 BS
I’m actually a gardener and want to clarify he’s doing great
I bet he didn't do any of that by himself.
Definitely a team of professionals gardeners came in to advise and work on it
Yeah but what is he going to do with the brown stuff?
For now....
@@ZulqarnainAidil it will turn green
Richard needs the Top Ground Gear Force to come in and make his garden look exquisite
I think we are looking at the end result here.
Do you have any syphilis?
They can put a shed up I seem to remember that went really well!
@@doesntmatter9996 nah not enough fallen over diggers and broken sheds
You can see they've dug the channels for the rivers of gravel already.
Richard's garden is currently ongoing
Down the gulley due to lack of plants
Bruh I thought u were Tyler's private account or something 😂😂
It's growing as we speak
All it needs is a river of gravel majestically sweeping through to the tree seat
@Abarth 124Spider true 😂
So, Jeremy owns a farm, James bought a pub, and Richard..... plays minecraft irl?
In this episode:
Jeremy is doing manual labour,
Richard becomes a gardener and,
The old lady James of 1900s is sipping on tea
Ha
actually james is in a carpark doing donuts in his civic type r
First assumption about the video: Massive crash.
Did he just imply that he managed to crash the Morgan in a flood?
S** it . No apparently the weather took it
Same
Around 4:30 he actually says "it's gone, crashed"!
@@Trace842 Crushed, not crashed :D
To be honest, it is kind of breaking my heart to see them slowly drifting out of the show business they created for soo many years. I do not know how close the three were outside of TG and TGT but I would guess that they do not meet up right now all too often and I fear that they are all quite comfortable with that and with not creating new extensive shows like the previous ones. I am happy for them if that's what they want to do. They do seem a bit burned out, looking back at many years of work, but it also makes me really sad because they did create very entertaining shows that were always a pleasure to watch.
It's been fairly well known outside of the shows they dont really talk to each other, since they used to spend most of the year filming together.
I also think they have earned the right to retire to be honest. They deserve some time to relax and do their own thing. TGT seems like something they have to bother themselves with, but I could be wrong.
@@callmeFlly but Hammond is still young😔
Clarkson and Hammond definitely seem over it, especially Clarkson who doesn't do much these days. Hammond at least still makes some specials with Amazon and so on. May on the other hand seems to be really getting into his content creating, becoming the most public figure of the 3.
Still, definitely feeling like the end of an era these days. They were the best.
@@mrjohnnyk it definitely feels like the end to an era..
Just to put things into perspective, Hammond is now older than Clarkson was when he kept rolling the Reliant Robin.
My favorite episode of all time... of course, I was raised on the Three Stooges.
😳
What's also incredible is that Jeremy doesn't look any different from when he rolled the Reliant Robin.
@@award3007He always looked like he's 70?
the joy on Hammond's face when he talks about his garden is heartwarming
Yeah and it's just a shambolic mess of course. One gets the feeling that without their jobs as TV personalities the three stooges would be absolutely helpless.
@@greenred1070 they are absolutely helpless on tv as well
Thats what makes them perfect
Me: Watching this episode for a Hamster update
My ears: “LOOKATWHATYOUVEDONETOMYBLOODYSHEDMAN”
"I had this bomb"
"I'm surprised by how heavy rugby posts are"
"But the river of gravel cascading majestically to end at the tree seat."
*Do you know how far we are from A RIVER OF GRAVEL?*
@@carlosvalero7638 "I think the words you're looking for are I'm sorry James I'm an A grade ocean going Pillock!"
"I'm 51 now and I need to start thinking about my legacy" hahahahaha that doesn't sound like a mid life crisis at all
He's been having a midlife crisis since his 30s. 🤣
With his track record I doubt he's living to 100+
I am 24 and I am having a mid life crisis. 😂😂😂
@@ernie_like_hemingway It's all downhill from 25 ;)

Bingo!
Lol

Do you have any idea how far away we are from a river of gravel cascading down the garden
LOOKWHATYOU'VEDONETOMYBLOODYSHEDMAN
Hamster, the most Americanized of the three presenters dressed in the most British outfit imaginable. I can see him standing right there in 40 years wearing exactly the same outfit surrounded by his beautiful garden.
How is he americanized?
@@schwartzy65 lol, I'm just referring to how much grief the other two give him for liking American things. I actually said "...of the three". He is undoubtedly British but that outfit makes him look like he's ready for a fox hunt with the duke.
He is also the most British of the lot. The other two are very continental. May is definitely a German
@@LordBackuro Yes he does love his rules and regulations.
Him not remembering what he did on the last episode is his top gear dragster brain injury still in effect.
Yea. He rolls with it well, but if you press him to remember something or come up with an idea for a documentary, he comes up blank, which makes me sad.
Honestly, that is just a part of getting older as well. I am not even close to Hammond's age but I find myself more forgetful every year.
In this Episode:
Richard is becoming an old English Landlord
James is getting younger
And im a Farmer
Says it was destroyed by a flood but he's proberly coving up that he crashed it
Around 4:30 he actually says "it's gone, crashed"!
@@Trace842 crushed*
Proberly?
Insurance company probably insisted it was crushed, they would not want his car to have valueand restored because of his ownership.
It's pretty sad, was a gorgeous car :/
Richard used to have a very modern dress sense now he looks like a classic grandad
he's old enough to be one
He’s going to look like James if he’s not careful
😂
@chris jones 51!
He’s had that jacket for years though...and he’s worn flat caps for years as well!
“It’s a common fault” said every landrover owner every time anyone asks how the landy is getting on
Tonight
Richard stops dying his hair
I do some farming
And James makes a cheese sandwich
Hammond's property looks suspiciously like a Hobbit village. Hmm...
lol
51? Amazing, he doesn't look a day older than 38.
Something about certain Brummy men.
My Dad is also a brummy boy and he is the same age as Richard and if anything looks younger than him. Its funny for they look quite similar and are both quite short.
Yea he definitely looks younger than that, probably because he's a smol Boi
Frankly the outdoor-toff outfit makes him look like 61 to me. Retirement sounded just about right for him, given the desperate jokes about his garden. The only thing not awkward about that whole interview was the dog sipping from the water.
I thought he didn't look a day over 51. ;
XD “it’s Hammond’s birthday tomorrow”
“Is it? How old will he be?”
“Do you know he’ll be 38”
“He was 38 last year?”
“And will be next year”
This poor dog all he ever wanted was some caresses but noeone gave him :(
That dog seems twice as smart as its owner.... Maybe I'm being unfair to the dog 😂
She's a she. Her name is Bleaberry.
At least she got a drink of water.
I can’t stop but appreciate Hamsters little fury friend. Doggooo!
unlimited budget.. "grand tour: space special" race rockets to the moon and have a homemade buggy challenge up there.
A tiny bridge over a tiny stream for a tiny presenter 😂
ROFL
He's building his own little hobbit village.
Wait a minute Hammond said the only car he’s got left is a Land Rover, WHERES THE 67 MUSTANG? Is she ok?
More concerned about Oliver 😬
@@blazeclarke 😔
He probably crashed that too!
@@mrjohnnyk Nooooooo
@@mrjohnnyk rofl beer just came out of my nose.
I'm a little upset we were never introduced to I'm assuming is Richard's dog
I can see Hammond retiring, and I'd actually be fine with it He's been through a lot physically, and I'd hate to see him hurt again. Looks like he's enjoying his land, and just happy to be at home.
The polite dog wandering around is a great touch
F’s in chat for his Morgan

I'm sensing that the grand tour specials are becoming no more
I agree, especially with that retirement talk
But doesn't Clarkson say just the opposite?😔
I sure hope they keep them going, even if it's just something they only do once in a while, I simply enjoy seeing them so much and the world would have a void without them.
I like how people seem to forget that they literally can't film like they used to because of covid restrictions, and then say "the specials are going away". Covid hit the world hard, and has put a lot of that stuff on temporary hiatus. That doesn't mean it's gone away...
@@Gamer3427 there will be other specials definitely, they are all going down different paths, like it may be a once a year thing after covid
And on that bombshell, Richard has gone back home to feed his dog.
They’re talking about the morgan like it’s the family’s horse ⚰️🥀😂
Hammond on Scotland: "I don't remember actually". Hopefully humor, not the result of TBI.
I didnt know that a hamster could be 51 years old
I didn’t know hamsters could garden
Wow. They should have at least held a funeral. Was such a pretty car, with such a bright future ahead and was cut down in its prime 😢
The dog’s like: “oh my dog, when is this going to end? I’m sooooooooooooooooo bored!”
On today’s episode:
Hammond is building a garden, May is selling his hydrogen car, And im looking at the end of my Co*kk..
I can just imagine Jeremy driving through his crops in the background
"Its not exactly a secret that you were in Scotland with some American sports cars"
This is the first that I'm hearing of it
I like Hammond
But he really doesnt like answering questions
It's really difficult to talk properly when you've become a caricature of yourself!
@@TheMeta6 what do you mean?
@@jdm_oz4617 it’s right there in the words he wrote
@@jdm_oz4617 hammond HAS to act that way, its his character, his public image.
@@TheMeta6 he's taken so many hits to the head I'm amazed he still knows who he is.
That famous landscape gardener "Incapabilty Hammond "...
I love Richards humour. He seems like a person you can chat with over a pint or two.
Tonight on Drivetribe:
Richard builds a garden
James sells his car
And I grow a beard
Rip the morgan... I hope to make my kitcars to that level of finesse one day.
I was just checking to see that it wasn’t Oliver
We should just call him hammond the destroyer at this point
that "retirement" answer crushed my heart a bit... Anyway
I'm still trying to find his double barrel hunting rifle.
You don't let small child play with firearms.
That would be a shotgun, then.
@@christopherwhitehead8946 *some rifles are double barrel
Like the Purdey express a luxury english rifle
@@chibani- yes but on an English farm dressed like that he’d be carrying a shotgun. No need for a high powered hunting rifle. No Rhinos here!
I dunno what gave me the impression but I don't think Richard is happy with the consensus regarding Oliver considering what happened to the Morgan
He is going to slap that v8 in it 100%
@@Rico_71 He's going to do what he wants with Oliver not listen to the fans, modern amenities and comforts not the classic restoration back to stock
@@Mack182 that's what I said. Rich mentioned he has a crate v8 engine that "he needs to return". He is obviously putting it in Oliver since he ordered it
Oliver is gonna end up on its roof, in a field, on fire, with Hammond being cut out of his clothes again...
Man, that derby hat really suits him.
It's a flat cap
Alternate title: Standing Around Hammond’s “Wales” Garden
Hammond: I call this a garden
Average american: that's a lovely shooting range there, buddy.
"It's about leaving my mark, I'm 51 now, it's time to start thinking about my legacy, and i think here it is" Yeah definitely, he hasn't done anything else notable in life for him to be remembered by
100% btw, awesome paramore profile pic! Hayley Williams put out a really solid solo album recently c:
The humble thing is hammond probably can already retire but he chooses to make it a joke instead
I love how Sir Hammond has grown into a cross between American Golfer and Brain Johnson from AC/DC.😂😂
Richard Hammond now looks more like Harry Metcalfe that Richard Hammond
Who else thought it was Oliver when they read the title? 😂
I did I thought of when Oliver was stuck in the river 😂 oliveeeerrrr!!! 😂
did you not see the morgan in the thumbnail?
I have always loved Richards ability to articulate. Great job Rich
I'd sure like to hear the full story on how the Morgan got wrecked.
I do wish he'd reduce the TV persona a bit for stuff like this, he's genuinely a really interesting bloke but the TV persona he has always put on for filmed content is a bit poor fitting for a man his age.
Most of the time, say on The Grand Tours it is still quite fitting to him but say for The Great Escapist...it just seemed...off...though that could be more to do with how poorly scripted it was
Richard looks like Brian Johnson from AC/DC
That's what i kept thinking as well
How dare you insult Richard like that.
@@englishatheart what do you mean? Brian Johnson is awesome and the leader of one of my favourite bands. And has been on old Top Gear and old Grand Tour before
@@englishatheart I do prefer Bon Scott as the AC/DC singer, but Brian Johnson is a tough cookie, basically saying that Richard was "rocking" the look.
I love how he refers to dirt as brown stuff and trees as tall things
Imagine clarkson replied in the comment: so your legacy is a gardener. You dont even do it right. See thats not a tree, thats some leftover christmas tree you pick up in the garbage can. Even my ditch is bigger then your stream.
James may: mumbling mumbling explaining how to plant grass
Knowing James he's probably also explaining what grass is....actually no, he's probably explaining about the history of the shovel
@@regularbloke2117 yes.. totally agreed
It’s time start thinking about my legacy... and here it is! 😂 You can genuinely tell he’s a character on and off the camera 51 and still manages to be one of the coolest tv presenters alive
Hammond is going bonkers or is he having a laugh. . .probably the latter.
I like how he starts off by saying it got destroyed in a flood... then he admits that he did a Hammond on it
It got destroyed in a flood... when he crashed it in the river. I got crushed... by a rock that fell on it after.
The most interesting part of the whole video was the dog... And it wasn't even acknowledged??
I love how Hammond and Clarkson both turned back to nature
And you would think that James May as the sort of hippy type would have turned to nature, not the other two, lol
Poor Hammond crashed his Morgan into a flood.
Only Hammond can manage that
his yard looks like it was visited by Top Ground Gear Force.
The Morgan had an automatic trans, it probably took the opportunity of the flood to drown itself in shame.
I miss old Top gear, I miss these 3 guys who naturally gel together without forced relationships and canned laughs.
Have you seen The Grand Tour?
@@hindleyau2627 of cource, but its still not the same, there wrapped in tape to much in worry of been sued by the BBC. its OK but no more than that.
@@hindleyau2627 grand tour is too scripted...
Let Hammond build Oliver how he wants him, it's his favourite car, not ours
It's almost infuriating seeing how Hammond looks younger than me, and I'm 32.
Please start looking after yourself better
Only 6 years older. Don't know why he's saying he is 51, he was joking probably
@@Rico_71 Hammond is definitely 51- what are you on about?
Well stop drinking and smoking and eat healthy foods
@@kamikazekaos -genes cries in a corner realising it can just be stopped by healthy food-
"Brown stuff" Oh, I feel so sorry for the trees now. Imagine going to a doctor and the doctor says "I wish I could do something about all this Red stuff".
Am I the only one who’s reading “in this episode” comments with Jeremy’s voice 😂😂
Hammond still thinks it's Halloween. Dressing up as a country squire is about as ridiculous as his hair dye and collar over the jacket outfits of 15 years ago
Just classic country wear, you clearly don't move in those circles, best stick to jeans and a T
Given Hammond's dreadful driving record I would have thought that he would have considered his legacy decades ago.
Clarkson and Hammond have turned into what may used to be (a boring farmer) and may has turned into what those two were (an entertainer)
James looks the healthiest and has the fastest car!! Lockdown has changed people obviously 😂
Yep, he's also still living in a quite "hip" part of London, seems the other two have settled for a log fire and some slippers. As you say, how times change!
Everyone talking about how hammond's dressed while im wanting to see Mike wear his all white ladies jacket again. The comments on that video we're the high point of this channel. Go find it if you want a laugh.
don't say what vid it is or anything
Which video was it?
Idk what video it is. It was like 6 months ago.
Retirement! What about, we continue even with nappies on? Richard...
RIP Morgan!! What a shame. It was a nice car. Just a bit small. Thanks Richard for being honest and letting us know. Best regards, Jim.
How has RH managed to find a coat which is too small for him?
