Jeremy Clarkson explains why he ended TV partnership with Richard Hammond and James May

Jeremy Clarkson has explained why he has ended his partnership with Richard Hammond and James May.

The trio first started working together on BBC’s Top Gear in 2002 and moved over to Amazon for Prime Video series The Grand Tour, which premiered in 2021.

However, a forthcoming special of the car show, titled One for the Road, will serve as a swansong for the trio’s onscreen partnership – and Clarkson, who is currently enjoying the biggest success of his career with Clarkson’s Farm, has reflected on why he decided to cut professional ties with both Hammond and May.

The absolute state of the British media.

Using his comment with the Times to create nonsense clickbait - no wonder your newspaper is failing

[johnb]

Why use an AI voice-over? Oh yeah, the Independent doesn't have any real journalists...

[GuyCross-pjyg]

It didn't premier in 2021 it premiered in 2016 lol

[Manu-Official]

So, a clickbait trailer narrated by some AI voice that is so low quality all the high end sizzles in HD.

[Vstar]

He also doesnt like to drive eletric cars and reviews eletric cars

[Saltybuher]

A failed newspaper and it’s AI. Goodbye

[gameplayactivity]

The Grand Tour start in 2016th.... no 2021th

"Partnership", but not "Friendship". You know they all keep being bellends to each other outside of the spotlight 😂

[VoiceOfThe]

Don’t be fooled. In years to come the trio will reunite for one last hurrah.

Whether that’s 5, 10 or 15 years down the line, we’ll get another Special one day, the demand will be there.

AT least Jeremy is being honest with himself and there's no animosity among the group .

[KuntaKinteToby]

Jeremy has more health problems than he wants to publicly admit, he's drank and smoked heavily for nearly 50 years. James and Richard could probably continue doing this for another 10 years, but they wouldn't want to without Jeremy.

[KozenaDrzka]

They should appear from time to time on farm.

[captaincymbal]

Why’s the independent using really shite AI for articles Insteadof paying staff???

[gsmoto]

Jesus, I thought the Independent was better than this

[sinkorswim-duxi]

Is that an AI voice ffs if your newspaper cant afford people to write or narrate articles then just DONT

[dwatts]

Easy answer: he's old. They're all getting old. It's time to do old people things.

[daveb]

Hope they don't go down the Black, Broadcasting, Corporation, route, and force ethical presenters that have no personality on us because i won't watch as many are sick of mediocre . No one can replace them, so just leave it and finish on a high .Thanks, you three for years of good fun

What a stupid intro shot. I doubt very much James May had his head in his hands, or Richard Hammond looked appalled. Clickbait crap from a crap, failing newpaper.
