The trio, who first hit our screens together in 2003 on Top Gear , announced in November that their time on the Amazon Prime series The Grand Tour was coming to an end. The first finale special, filmed in Mauritania , aired earlier this year, and now a first look of their Zimbabwe trip has dropped.
The teaser begins with a sombre rendition of Audrey Hepburn’s Moon River, before Clarkson, Hammond and May all look downcast as they near the end of their journey together. ‘After 22 years, the end has finally come,’ the clip adds, showing the trio continuing their adventure one last time. At points throughout the montage, Clarkson, 64, looks fed up at a map, Hammond, 54, is left stunned at something his co-stars say in one clip, and May, 61, attempts to fix one of the cars.
‘So for the last time, here we go,’ Clarkson says, as a final clip shows the three racing each other. The release teases: ‘In their last adventure, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May ignore the instructions of Mr Wilman and head to Zimbabwe in three cars they’ve always wanted to own, a Lancia Montecarlo, a Ford Capri 3-litre, and a Triumph Stag, for a stunning road trip through beautiful and sometimes challenging landscapes leading to an emotional ending on a strangely familiar island.’ This comes after Clarkson admitted he’s too ‘unfit and fat and old’ for filming some parts of the programme, which has run from 2016.
The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? host said: ‘I’ve driven cars higher than anyone else and further north than anyone else. ‘We’ve done everything you can do with a car. When we had meetings about what to do next, people just threw their arms in the air.
’ He continued to The Times that the show ‘is immensely physical and when you’re unfit and fat and old, which I am,’ making some parts of filming the show, like camping and the outdoor conditions, more difficult.
