Re: The Grand Tour - the magnificent three are back!
Good, it sounds like it's on people's 'to watch' list! Mr Clarkson seems to have grown rather more portly, The Hamster seems be having a mid-life crisis and rocking designer stubble, and James May is looking more like Theresa May!
Was that really Carol Vorderman on the floor pretending to be deceased???!
Jo'berg next. Should be interesting, as I spent 5 years there as a child....

Agreed. Yes, that was a bit puzzling. They should have Chris Evans on; that would be interesting!

Great to see them back, fully agree that the 3 "stars" bit was a little cringeworthy but I guess as its American based now they think it's funny ::)
I doubt if the inhabitants of Wroughton are over the moon with being the new base of the test track!
