Fans across the globe were left devastated when it was confirmed that the trio would be waving goodbye to the show for good after they decided to end the Prime series last year with one final special show.
However, just eight months on, and a brand new reunion show has been confirmed to be in the works and fans don’t even have to wait that long to get their hands on it.
Next month, Prime Video will broadcast the one-off special, The Not Very Grand Tour.
The programme has been created by director Phil Churchward, who worked on both Top Gear and The Grand Tour.
It is understood that the episode will be a look-back at nostalgic clips from the show’s run with brand new commentary from both Richard and James.
Jeremy will only feature in archive footage and has not recorded any new scenes for the episode.
The episode will become available for streaming on Friday 18 April.
An episode synopsis teases: “In this episode, the team celebrate the combustion engine, with a look back at footage from past adventures and test drives.”
As part of James May‘s YouTube series called Planet Gin, he and Richard, 55, returned toTop Gear‘s former studio in Dunsfold Aerodrome.

Reminiscing about their time at the location, the pair admitted their trip down memory lane might be “traumatising”.
James, 62, told viewers: “Well that is the old Top Gear studio. And that is the old Top Gear green room.”
Richard added: “Where we assembled, worked on scripts, had arguments. I feel funny. I feel funny as well. I felt really odd being here.”
The men both reflected on the final time they were at the location before beginning to explore the green room.
The Grand Tour episode guide
How many seasons of The Grand Tour are there and where do they take place?
The Grand Tour launched on Prime Video in 2016 and quickly became one of the streamer’s biggest hits as hosts Jeremy, 63, James, 60, and Richard, 52, felt it was time they move on from Top Gear hit the road.
They have now brought five epic series of motoring adventures to the small screen, each taking place in different locations and even featuring celebrity guests.
Series 1
Series 1 aired from 2016 to 2017 and took the presenters to a number of foreign locales, including Jordan, Morocco and Italy.
The series is comprised of 13 episodes, with episodes 7 and 8 making up a two-part special set in Namibia, where the trio embarked on an epic beach buggy challenge.
Series 2
Jeremy, Richard and James returned for more motoring actor in series 2, and drove their way across Europe as they tested out some of their dream vehicles like the Bugatti Chiron and the McLaren 720S.
This series, which aired from 2017 to 2018, is made up of 11 episodes. It features regular ‘studio segments’ filmed in the team’s permanent tent in the Cotswolds, and had regular participation from celebrities with two guests going head-to-head on timed laps every episode.
Series 3
In 2019, the presenting trio crossed continents – from North America, to South America, to Europe and Asia – putting both new vehicles and classic sports cars through their paces.
This series was the last to feature the regular studio segments, car reviews and timed laps.
To mark the end of this era the final episode’s last segment includes a montage of scenes featuring the presenters over the course of their career as a trio, not only from this programme, but also from their time hosting Top Gear.
Series 4
This series marked a complete change in format for The Grand Tour as it consists entirely for feature-length specials which aired between 2019 and 2021.
The first two chronicle Jeremy, Richard and James’ epic adventures across Asia and Africa, while the third and fourth episodes saw them put foreign cars to the test on their home turf. And fitting American vehicles through Scottish roads is no easy feat.
Series 5
Following the same format as series 4, the fifth and final series of The Grand Tour also consists of four feature-length specials.
The first of these hits screens in 2022 and follows the trio as they travelled through Norway, Sweden and Finland in three Rally-Inspired Sports Saloons.
The second episode was another Euro adventure while the third took the presenters back to Africa.
The fourth instalment of the series and final ever episode of The Grand Tour, titled One for the Road, premieres on September 13, 2024. It promises to be an emotional one as the trio set out on one epic final adventure in Zimbabwe and reflect on their 22-year-long working relationship and friendship.
