Just hope it will not be as stupid as the very worn out TG was when it finally gave up the ghost. (I do however have my suspicions that it will be).

The falsely comedic RH
and the droll and drab JM

Presenter Clarkson revealed the reason for the choice
He said: "Thing is. We'll be travelling the world hosting each episode in a different country, from a giant tent. It's a sort of 'grand tour', if you like. So we've decided to call it 'The Grand Tour'."

May admitted he was underwhelmed by the final name, saying: "I wanted to call it 'Nigel', or 'Roger'. We needed a name, and they're names."

Hammond said: "I already love camping. But this is something else. We are like our pioneering and prospecting forebears, sallying forth into a new frontier of broadcasting, and making our home where..."

The statement ended, adding that at this point in the above conversation "Clarkson and May strangled him (Hammond) with a guy rope."

its "TGT" or as Clarkson put it (smiling) "GT" but its my guess they added the "The" as a tongue in cheek dig at "TG" (Grand Tour would have worked as well or better) Whistle

I think Evans is probably the worst thing to have happened to TG Sad

Doesn't look like it will float many peoples boat as the budget is being cut all the time by the sounds of it, they started with too many presents and have been cutting back slowly but we all knew it would happen. 2-4 is the right amount on such a show. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
