Jeremy Clarkson Ends TV Partnership with Richard Hammond and James May Jeremy Clarkson, the former host of the popular BBC motoring show “Top Gear,” has reportedly ended his TV partnership with co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May. According to The Sun newspaper, Clarkson has decided to leave the trio’s current Amazon Prime Video show, “The Grand Tour,” and is in negotiations to sign a new deal with a rival network. Sources close to Clarkson told The Sun that he had grown tired of the format of “The Grand Tour” and wanted to pursue his own projects. “Jeremy feels like he’s outgrown ‘The Grand Tour,'” a source said. “He wants to do something different and feels it’s time for a change.” The news comes as a surprise to fans of the show, which has been a success for Amazon since its launch in 2016. The trio have developed a strong camaraderie on-screen, which has attracted a large and loyal following. However, there have been reports of tension behind the scenes in recent years. Clarkson has reportedly clashed with Amazon executives over the show’s direction, and Hammond and May have expressed frustration with his increasingly controversial behavior. In addition, Clarkson’s suspension from “Top Gear” in 2015, after he allegedly assaulted a producer, may have damaged the relationship between him and the BBC. The potential departure of Clarkson from “The Grand Tour” could have a significant impact on the show’s future. Hammond and May have stated that they would not continue the show without him, so it is likely that it will be canceled if he leaves. Amazon has not yet commented on the reports of Clarkson’s departure.Jeremy Clarkson’s professional relationship with his former co-stars Richard Hammond and James May appears to be at an end.Jeremy Clarkson’s professional relationship with his former co-stars Richard Hammond and James May appears to be at an end. Clarkson, who has achieved significant success with his solo project “Clarkson’s Farm” on Amazon Prime Video, has expanded his business ventures by purchasing a Cotswolds pub. According to reports, the trio’s production company, W Chump and Sons, which produced “The Grand Tour,” has been dissolved. The company’s dissolution indicates that the presenters have declared solvency and appointed a liquidator to wind up their business. This development suggests that the upcoming “Grand Tour” special filmed in Zimbabwe will likely be the final collaboration between Clarkson, Hammond, and May. The trio’s on-screen chemistry during their tenure on “Top Gear” and “The Grand Tour” made these shows hugely popular. However, Clarkson’s dismissal from “Top Gear” in 2015 led Hammond and May to leave in solidarity, and together they launched “The Grand Tour.” Despite hints that the upcoming special would be the show’s finale, Clarkson’s recent success with “Clarkson’s Farm” has shifted his focus. The show has become one of the most popular on Prime Video, with Clarkson sharing behind-the-scenes anecdotes and challenges, including the disastrous experiment of free-grazing pigs.Jeremy Clarkson has reportedly ended his TV partnership with Richard Hammond and James May.
