No matter on either Top Gear or Grand Tour, Jeremy, James & Richard will still be the greatest & best presenters ever.
End of an era, I watched the entire 22 years. A huge thank you to the legendary trio for so many years of joy and laughter.
Tornados episode Was literally the reason I started watching the show and throughout all these years James Hammond and Jezza are the greatest presenters to this generation!
I had no idea what Top Gear was until I stumbled across that episode while reading about Tornado
The bit with the beetle and the dog was just about the hardest I've laughed in months
It's all about the chemistry of the presenter's, if they don't click, the output comes across as performed.
‘And on that bombshell, it’s time to end.’
For good now 😢
You were always guaranteed a laugh watching Jeremy, Richard and James together. 😂
There's been so many memorable moments.
*Police Car rolling in with an ice cream siren*
Jeremy, James and Richard are one of the key reasons I am into any sort of vehicles besides trains
I may have discovered them by random challenge videos on RUclips when I was 9 or 10 (as I am not British) but they're comprehensive coverage of the world of motoring coupled to their great chemistry and humor have made a permanent impact on me.
Not gonna lie, it was a bittersweet feeling watching the final special. That ending was just…. it certainly left me a little teary eyed.
I’d like to thank those from the presenters to the writers to the film crew all of these people made me who I am today but just 17 days from my 18th birthday I will never forget what everyone has done to help me get to where I’m at today. Thank you everyone
I literally did a spit take myself after hearing ‘I was one of them’. Soooo many alternate universes. 😮
I will miss old Top Gear and Grand Tour. They were great shows. Funny, informative and interesting. Jeremy, James and Richard were great hosts. Thoroughly enjoyed One For The Road too, a magnificent end to the show I think.
But as famously quoted by Dr Seuss, "Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened ".
Yes they were great together and their many years at the BBC left us with great laughs and memories. But let's also acknowledge all the things they contributed individually as well. Truly a remarkable trio. I never watched them on pay TV as I don't subscribe, I don't get a lot of time to watch TV so it would not be worth the money just to see them, much as I missed them after Clarkson was sacked. They could each be stupid and go beyond the pale at times - especially Clarkson - but you know, every hero has has flaws. I think he's done a lot to shine a light into the challenges involved in farming, the people who produce our basic food never get enough acknowledgement and for that he's to be congratulated as well.
RIP Top Gear.
Awesome ,absolutely amazing it’s sad to see such a trio end but it’s had been a great ride !Especially that race between the steam,motorbike and motorcar!
I used to watch top gear as a kid, not very much because I was more into trains and tractors than cars. But after Clarkson's farm was launched, I got back into the old Top Gear as well as watched a handful of clips from the grand tour.
As the old saying goes, "All good things must come to an end someday." The iconic trio aren't getting any younger after all, so we knew this day was inevitable.
But, I think many of us are very grateful to the role Clarkson Hammond and May played in shaping transportation shows as we know them today, and the ripple effects lingering on in their other projects (Clarkson's farm for example exposing to the world what it's really like to be a new farmer in the modern era)
Unfortunately, I won't be able to watch the final episode cos I dont have Amazon Prime as of yet. But I'll still raise a pint in the trio's honour.
I've just watched the final episode - I thought it was a great send off for the trio with the added and utterly unexpected surprise of finding the remaining two cars from their first special 17 years ago where they had been left.
It did seem, to me at least, as if Clarkson and May drifted off on camera into their memories
Thank you. That was fun.
"Post Moderist Punk Programming": great line!
Definitely the end of an era. Memorable specials and shows that have influenced a lot of others to follow in their footsteps.
Clarkson had been pretty much bang on and everything he’s ever said. Most are just too afraid and too sucked into the hive mind.
I wish I’d started watching their stuff sooner. Been watching Top Gear clips/complications for just over a year and a half, and now the almighty trio has come to an end. I’d hope they keep working together on non-car related shows, but I have no idea if they ever will. If anything, I’m not happy it’s over but I’m happy that it happened.
I’ll miss Top Gear, it was a key piece of my childhood and hell, a key piece of my adult life (Jesus it’s been on for ages) and its had a deep impact on my life, it inspired my love of cars, my love of everything four wheeled and fast, and while the new breed of automotive personalities are coming through, the Orangutan, Hamster and Captain slow will forever be the gold standard of Motoring shows.
I'm going to be completely honest with everyone, my old Thunderrails series i used to do on my channel when i used to play Railworks/ Train Sim Classics with 'the lads' was basically a railway Top Gear. It too had to end because all our lives took a different turn and we couldn't do it anymore.
These three are responsible for me discovering the Allman Brothers band.
I was pretty ecstatic when the opening bars of Brothers in Arms started
One of my favourite songs, from my favourite musican of all time
Now that song will forever have another meaning to me
Good video! I remember the audition for Top Gear, and I was one of the people that auditioned for Top Gear. I remember back in 2015 after I graduated from High School, and I think it was July that I auditioned for Top Gear, and I remember that I sent it to the BBC, and they said thank you for your audiation video we will let you know if we hear anything, and I never did and I love to tell people that I lost to Matt Leblanc. I do love Clarkson, Hammond and May and they made the show something and I got into to them when I was a Sophomore in High School, and they were quite funny and entertaining. I have a coworker that watched Top Gear and the Grand Tour, and he told me that Clarkson, Hammond and May are the modern-day versions of the Three Stooges.
As if the world was not boring enough.. It just got more so. Bless em and thanks lads.
Hard to emagine, but hammond, may and clarkson will love on in the format and style that they left behind.
What a great tribute! Also, The idea of a Chris Eden-Green Top Gear is genuinely quite cool to think about.
Steam Locos in Profile and Railway Roundabout are the closest things we have to a Top Gear: railway edition.
The Clarkson, Hammond, May trio will go down as very entertaining guys. Clarkson’s fiery nature got him turfed out of the BBC. Hammond (Hamster) is a skilled performer. His propensity for accidents was troublesome. James May is James May, a man of many interests, skilled sometimes and often entertaining.
What a great video Chris…
I’ve just come here after watching GT’s final episode and wow what a way to close another chapter of automotive history…
The Infamous trio have been producing Car related content for the Vast majority of my life, I have grown up watching their content…
Without a doubt Top gear has shaped my life personally, I very much doubt I would have gone into the automotive industry without the influence of Top Gear ( as it was at the time).
But not only that, Top Gear has introduced the world to many motoring icons including (but not limited too) Sabine Schmitz and Ben Colin’s, whilst prominent in their own right, top gear gave them an international audience.
Whilst the ‘new Top Gear’ was just starting to find its feet with the latest trio (I Personally feel anyway), the original trio ploughed on with the Grand Tour, you could however see that the show was coming towards its natural end…
I’m so glad I’ve been able to witness this story, the show went out on a high.
Their legacy will never die.
Well said!
0:04 My grandad would approve of this sponsor spot cos… 😜
a tost to TOP GEAR! 🍻🥹
While I wasn't a great fan of the 2002 format of Top Gear, I do agree Clarkson et Al had a great chemistry together. I suspect some of the comments they made were playing up to the camera.
There may never be another Clarkson, Hammond and May
I’m keeping my fingers crossed
Respects to a madly epic trio (they don’t got nothing on The Holy Trinity though, mate ;)
You khow what us railway enthusiasts need top rail
But making something like that appealing to the general public is the problem. You could be a car enthusiast and enjoy top gear, but so could the general public. The format was flexible and creative, the super cars were readily available by contacting manufacturers or collectors, the track was their own play ground. You can't translate this into a rail based platform and keep it exciting or engaging, let alone comply with safety or engineering factors on things like modified or experimental vehicles.
@@james.black981 i khow but it's worth a try the outcome of the future is unpredictable so who knows if it would work but you are probably wright
I really loved these guys, which is why it was so disheartening watching Jeremy Clarkson throw a hissy fit over Greta Thurnburg for advocating us not destroying ourselves via climate change.
Did I always agree with Clarkson, May and Hammond? Of course not. But which builds wisdom: association with those who agree or disagree?
Chris Eden Green lost media confirmed
Difference being, THIS lost media really wasn't worth looking into at all
Jeremy is correct.. the failed milk float.. makes reviewing these soulless commodities pointless… it’s been great fun and I will miss.. them.
I think this video summed it up well. You don't have to agree with everything they have said and done but you can enjoy watching them. I think some people have based there opinions on them and specifically Clarkson on out of context clips and paper headlines. Like Chris said not everything they have done or said has been right but I don't think they have ever meant any harm to anyone. I have loved watching them and will definitely miss these road trips.
Personally I've pretty much soured on this particular constellation over the years.
_Mainly because Clarkson is a prick, on and off camera_
James May seems a fine enough bloke, no idea about Hammond though. They're good presenters though.
Clarkson shows himself both misogynistic and queerphobic, and those are two things I just don't excuse, as a bisexual woman.@richardharrold9736
@richardharrold9736 That's my experience of JC too, Richard.
I'm watching this just before I watch the finale. What a hype video. 🎉🥹
