The Grand Tour

[Maccy]

No need to be like that is there?

You both didn’t need to be like that, play nice please.

 

[Jonnycoupe]

Decent series on ITV that

Who are the new hosts of The Grand Tour?

After May, Hammond, and Clarkson departed in 2024, who will be filling their spots?

New Hosts announced:

The new trio comprises YouTubers Thomas Holland and James Engelsmans, known for their car content (Throttle House), and social media star and train expert Francis Bourgeois.

Surely not? Look at how badly TG 2.0 failed.

 

[hornetstinger]

Train guy in a car show? LOL

 

[Rroff]

I mean I'll give it a whirl but I've always found Throttle House a bit take it or leave it and only seen 1-2 videos of Francis so can't really comment.

[something daft already!!]

Train crash of a car show I suspect.

 

[hornetstinger]

Rather have Chip Cobb

For it to work it needs to be an entertainment show as much as a car show - there are a lot of people who can present car shows, a lot less who can make it as interesting as Clarkson, etc.

You only have to look at Drive Tribe, with all due respect to them as some work really hard, but they just don't have the appeal or draw the audience that James and Richard do, though Collins has been getting pretty good lately.

 

[Ayahuasca]

It’s going to be tragic.

 

[the wopster]

Rather **** in my hands and clap

High five to that guy.

 

[Shadowness]

What on earth does the train guy know about cars?!

[floatindolphin]

Sounds interesting, I’ll give it a chance

 

[Nasher]

But.. R.I.P

Just like Top Gear

 

[Diddums]

If anyone can do it, it's the Throttle House boys. Dunno who the third is tho.

He's a lad with fascination with trains. I'll leave it at that as wouldn't be right

 

[adam cool dude]

Out of the YouTube creator types my favourites are the Top Dead Centre guys. They have genuine chemistry even with their cameraman too. I love listening to their podcast.

They would imo be prime candidates for a GT type thing attracting both older and younger audiences.


The train guy is pretty good at what he does but in a GT type setting I do not think so.
