This wasn't the original Top Gear. Clarkson was on it, but not Hammond. May was on it a few times, but not a regular. This is actually the reboot of Top Gear.

So that's what made him soft, huh.. What a pity. I must admit, compated to Top Gear, The Grand Tour has been pretty weak so far. The humor has suffered greatly on Grand Tour. I truly do believe that some people work better under a limit.. I hate that so many jokes are just so much on the nose now. I don’t get why they’re being “generous” with their audience, why they care if we get the joke or not. One of the best things about TG was that some of the jokes flew over your head and only later you understood them, and that made it so much better. Now it’s like they’re holding a sign “LOOK HERE, THIS IS A JOKE!”. P.S. i don’t mean every joke they tell is bad, but you can see the difference.

@@nothajzl unfortunately the writers spoil it. Feels so much more scripted. But I'll bet the money softens that blow for the guys.

@@nothajzl Nah its just that unfortunately times have changed, its just so much harder to do comedy nowadays when you have that kind of popularity. So many of the jokes they used to make that were borderline 8-10 years ago would never fly today. Think about how the how much shit spotify has gotten from their own employees for their deal with joe rogan and he isnt anywhere near as controversial as they sometimes could be.

@@henrywilson575 I don't really feel like top gear was all that "edgy" tbh. Sure they were some pushing of boundaries here and there but mostly their jokes were at the expense of each other and 90% of their jokes weren't problematic in any way I would say. Just snippy British humor. Also, considering what American shows and even other British shows were doing at that time (i.e full on racist stereotypes and offensive drivel masquerading as "humor"), the worst top gear did was call each the r word.

It was also a crocodile. 😂

You need the Clarkson Pause......in the world!

Very true! Virtually everything can be funny in the right light or situation, jokes are jokes and getting offended by them is missing the point. But as you say it's different these days, it's like there's a small but very vocal minority getting offended by everything and they get to dictate what the majority can enjoy. Jordan Peterson made a very interesting point in an interview, that you "can't say anything about anything important ever without offending" and continues to make the point that there's this idea today that you can't offend anyone. So what if you're speaking to one person, do you have the right to offend that person? What if you're speaking to 10 people? Do you get to offend 1 in 10? Or 1 in a 1000?

@@zapador The thing is, they've always existed. Back in the day, it was the Karans getting all bent out of shape over DnD, video games and Rock Music. THe difference is that they were basically screaming into the void and so batshit insane with the Satanic Panic thing that it only really effected America and not that much since everyone sensible just rolled their eyes and moved on. These days the voices are amplified by social media and, rather annoyingly, they have latched onto an actually good cause, poisoning it and draining it of its power in the process.

@@marcusreading3783 True, social media basically gave these nutters a voice.

What? Your comment makes no sense. Entertainment like this still exists, and people that complain about them have existed since.. ever. It's literally no different now than it is 50 years ago.

@@TetraDax Oh, I know that, the problem is that its getting more and more common for people to get bent out of shape over it and the internet makes complaining a lot easier and more public, which leads the big, mass market appeal entertainment groups more likely to crack down on it in the name of, well, mass market appeal. You certainly wouldn't find stuff like this one the BBC.

Yes, appeared to be genuinely caught out by that. I think I remember the episode but wouldnt have written in to point it out though. I think some people have too much time on their hands.

@@oddities-whatnot That much is very true.

I think it was also because it seemed like he made a genuine mistake rather than the usual kind of skits they do without caring about anyone else. And also that traffic rules are something he probably takes more seriously than people's opinions.

They say "Oh, no! Anyway..."

Don't watch it if it offends you. They're idiots.

piss off Clarkson

👏🏼​@@humanoid_freak

That's why a lot of actors dont have personal social media accounts. People get upset at things they do on tv when it's just for entertainment. Which is subjective. If people don't like it, dont try and cancel it and try to have them lose their job just don't watch it. 3 people complain and shout but 350million people enjoyed this show, so why do people listen to these complaints.

@@sdfilmproductions4193 you're right.

@@tobyzapanta1523 The Grand Tour is still a thing. Offensive humor won't ever die.

They're the champions of common sense, and considering their shows include caravan conkers, chucking cars off cliffs, and a lot of explosions, that's alarming.

No they wouldn't

piss off Clarkson

Mary Whitehouse used to do the same thing

That's called a Tweeter

so, twittards?

I want to live there just to bring some common class to the area lol

Retired most probably on a big pension, sat in their expensive house sipping cups of tea out of fine china. Grandfather clock in the hall and a tiled mosaic floor in the entrance.

And yet when Top Gear first aired, it was all about affordable cars. For me it got boring with expensive cars going round a track.

I mean the grand tour episode "unscripted" is pretty much that

@@Mustang150y yeah. But one episode. Top Gear was different level of fun

@@shr2000 i think that one episode was longer than the top gear moments combined

@@Mustang150y yeah 😅

@@Mustang150ythat episode tried to address what they were saying but it kinda missed the point. I don’t want totally unscripted with none of them knowing what they doing. But I also don’t want obviously scripted explosions and accidents, these guys aren’t actors I can’t watch the motorhone special again because of the obvious scripting.

As an Argentinian, I love that he didn't actually apologize, those idiots in the south misrepresented us and don't deserve any respect 😤

Since when do the Argies deserve an apology? THE FALKANDS ARE BRITISH!🇬🇧

They were probably too busy harbouring and protecting the descendants of the thousands of nazi war criminals they welcomed after ww2. Filthy nation.

There are too many 'Sewer Slide' Support Groups already, so to compete the founders decided to get creative.

This is why I hate woke people.

Still non car people do not know existence

@@ManOfHop3 7 years easily falls within the definition of "a few short years".

I wouldn't say it's very controversial. It's unpopular for all the alt-left sjw media, but that doesn't make it controversial! 😂😂😂😂

It takes a lot to be controversial even for top gear.

Wasn't even controversial, the few people who cried never gained any real traction in the media so they were just laughed at.

@@Bendwow That's kinda the thing. Being unpopular with those short-bus occupants USED to be a much smaller deal than it is now. So at the time it was produced, it wasn't controversial. It is retroactively controversial though, or at least would be if the full episodes could be found anywhere LMAO.

Lol same, the camera position, the piano, the timing just perfect

That, and his sweet style.

Especially whining gammons

Or you could just stop saying racist & hurtful slurs, stop stereotyping nationalities & class and stop punching down at others who get it from everyone 24/7 and get actual hatred and abuse from those that think they're funny calling anyone in the UK that isn't white a terrorist and telling them to go back where they came from.

Basically he said some offensive stuff about truckers like the line "all truckers do is change gear change gear check mirrors murder prostitutes" and people were pissed. He instead apologized for not putting the Porsche gt2 laptime because during that lorry episode, he actually didn't put the lap time

The clip is on YT "Jeremy Clarkson on lorry driving"

Yes, it’s a reference to the fact that a number of American tv dramas and films, whenever they feature truck drivers, nearly always portray them as killers. A few episodes of CSI and Criminal Minds spring to mind as examples.

He was pertaining to the Yorkshire Ripper who was a lorry driver who murdered prostitutes in the 80s. He used the guy as inspiration for the lorry driver stereotype lol.
