Update
Given the popularity of the Clarkson/Hammond/May era of BBC’s Top Gear and Clarkson’s departure from Auntie’s bosom (he wasn’t sacked, his contract just wasn’t renewed), it’s fair to say the petrol-headed trio’s return to our screens in Amazon Prime’s The Grand Tour was always going to be viewed with great interest.
So how was it received? Generally it seems to have gone down well with critics and fans alike. Here’s just a selection of online reviews:

As one reviewer on www.imdb.com wisely pointed out, previously the brand wasn’t Top Gear, it was three middle-aged adolescents making an entertaining show and the consensus seems to be, “… if you loved TG, then you’ll love GT.”
