Jeremy Clarkson Says Report The Grand Tour Will End Not True

A report surfaced in The Daily Mail over the weekend claiming The Grand Tour will end following its third full season on Amazon Prime, but Jeremy Clarkson has now dispelled of the rumors.

The report claimed that Amazon had yet to sign on Clarkson and his co-stars, Richard Hammond and James May, for a fourth season of the show. Filming is currently underway on the third season, which should air later this year. Speaking to The Daily Star, Clarkson said the report is untrue. Additionally, the TV presenter tweeted out that it was “hilarious” anyone believed The Daily Mail’s initial report.

“All I will say for now is that, as usual, the reports are inaccurate,” he said.

What seemed to fuel these rumors is Amazon has yet to approach the show’s producers about a fourth season, leaving some employees wondering what may happen when filming for season three wraps up. Additionally, Clarkson recently took a job as a host of ITV’s Who Wants to be a Millionaire – but filming for that weeklong series will be brief, and won’t get in the way of any Grand Tour obligations.

The Grand Tour producer Andy Wilman said his team is “focusing on series three at the moment,” but didn’t comment on the rumors that the show won’t be renewed for a fourth season. It seems The Daily Mail heard Amazon had yet to approach The Grand Tour team about Season 4, and saw that, along with Clarkson’s new Millionaire gig, as evidence that The Grand Tour’s future may be in trouble. Thankfully that doesn’t appear to be the case, so fans of Clarkson, Hammond and May can rest easy for the time being.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
