The Grand Tour

I hadn't seen it anywhere advertised as being 4k, must just be being stupid! This is definitely going to be something to showcase the 4k ability of TVs I feel, if Top Gear is anything to go back as they had some stunning imagery and video in their previous series.

Cheers for the info gents.

It is odd actually, they havent actually marketed it as such. Weird.

At £4.5M per episode you'd hope they'd have gone 4K.

Wilman also said in the above interview that 4mil per episode is a load of bull.

Applied, but am there anyway - planning a driving trip through the highlands in my Noble on that exact weekend, will keep an eye out for the tents

Dont forget that to watch in 4K you need a both a 4K TV and the more-expensive £75 Fire TV stick (rather than the cheaper £33 or £43 ones). Also you'll need to be able to download at over 25Mbps.

Not aimed at anyone in particular, but worth knowing.

Is there an Amazon app on smart tvs or is it only 4k on the fire stick?

I think only the stick, but I'm not 100% sure.

I've got the Amazon app on my LG UH850V. I haven't used it yet though, however, Netflix 4k works perfect on my broadband connection (about 12mb

).
Can't you download from amazon prime though?

I noticed there was an amazon app on my samsung too, 60ju6800. Looks like theres 4k stuff oln there already so looks promising for TGT, also mentions about a free month

Millwall.FC · 11 Nov 2016 at 20:18

wedrum · 11 Nov 2016 at 20:18

looks awesome

I remember Andy Wilman talking about amazon wanting 4K HDR footage, something he said they'd never have done staying with the BBC.

Our Prime TV box will be pumping it out in 4K UHD so won't need any apps and apparently it will also have HDR. Can't wait until Friday.
