It was rather strange watching The Grand Tour and not having a car mentioned. Wasn't too bad, but it wasn't great either. Hope they pull a rabbit out of the hat, because, judging by this episode and comments from people abroad, I will be very surprised if they release two more episodes before being canned.
Huh ?
It was a once off episode. Canned ? Based on having already shot the other episodes., and the show being called
the grand tour, not the grand
car tour and already having mentioned in the last episode of the previous season that the format is changing.
Episode is perfect, it's James, hamster, and the ape mucking about, just because there are no cars doesn't make it shyte, and they have done previous episodes which didn't involve cars in both top gear and the grand tour.
Shouldn't have to remind you.
Vietman special where they were on scooters and eventually had to convert the scooters into boats.
Polar special which had the hamster racing with sleigh dogs.
Thailand special in trucks.
Various races with bikes, cars, boats, bicycles.
Build hover crafts.
Various races with planes, trains and public transport
Neither top gear they did or grand tour, where never "just" cars, and people have to get use to the fact the format changed, meaning there won't be "car" segments, or cars reviews.To be honest car reviews got rather boring never watched it for that, the racing, the modding, and brain fart ideas is what I am here for.
It's perfect.
