Name: The Not Very Grand Tour
Genre: Documentary
Released: 2025-04-17
Rating: 6.2
Cast: Jeremy Clarkson, James May, Richard Hammond

Almost everything we like in Grand Tour is non present.

Live and unscripted dialogues (they only had a direction in TG / GT) are replaced with a soulless reading from a prompter. Even the "jokes" and "verbal lunges" feel so plain and artificial, that I couldn't smile even once.

Instead of 3 emotionally arguing men we got 2 boring old dudes reading a script.

THERE IS NO NEW FOOTAGE AT ALL. We could see some behind the scenes cuts, or the material that was edited out before, but instead of that amazon production team showed us exactly same shorts that we have seen before. And those were not even the most thrilling ones!

Very very very lazy job. Very poorly done. There is something of 5-10 minutes of new video (May and Hammond dialogues) in a hour long recompilation of old material.

The only person who would have enjoyed watching this is the one who has never seen the original Grand Tour series. I was so much into a new release and I have got that one... It feels somewhat as mix of a spit in the face and arrogant charity donation.

I am disappointed by that more, than by any season of new crews in Top Gear. It feels THAT BAD.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
