First look inside Jeremy Clarkson’s new Grand Tour, including moment which leaves even motormouth Jezza speechless

AFTER two decades performing car stunts on the ground, messing about with planes was the only way the daredevil Grand Tour boys could surpass themselves.

For the new show, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May deliver two dramatic moments that are far from plane sailing.

The first leaves even motor-mouth Jezza speechless, as the trio are confronted by a FLYING CAR.

The second is a high-octane thriller as the intrepid trio try to speed their motors on to the back of a moving transport plane.

Jeremy, 63, said: "I was lost for words because you always hear, ‘There’ll be flying cars one day’ — and there it was.

"It drove on to the runway like a normal car, then it flew, and then it landed again."

On their big stunt Richard, 53, said: "There's a sequence with a plane which is epic.

"It's the kind of thing you wanted to do as a kid — drive a big V8-engine car on to the back of a transport plane. It's got all of that in it."

Jeremy added: "We’ve had this up our sleeves for about five years and finally pulled it off."

The trio share the usual jokes, japes and car porn as they take on their third road trip film for Prime Video.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash, follows the lads on a 1,400-mile journey from Gdansk in Poland, through Slovakia to Hungary and on to their final destination — Slovenia's stunning Lake Bled.

The tour was completed in three wacky motors — an outrageous Japanese Al Capone gangster car, a pick-up that thinks it is a convertible and a 75-year-old American Crosley micro-mini.

James, 60, has the bum deal — and it's his fault. He said: "The little Crosley I bought accidentally. I saw it for sale online. I ended up paying £12,000. Never drink wine and bid."

It breaks down almost immediately after James drives it off the ferry at Gdansk — and continues in the same vein.

It means James misses out on almost all the japes.

As well as a race at the Poznan track in Poland — where Jeremy gets stuck in a single-seater racer — "Captain Slow" is too late to take a tour of the site of the real Great Escape — the Stalag Luft III prisoner of war camp.

He said: "I’ve never screwed up a shoot as badly."

Jeremy said with a laugh: "Well, the lesson James has learnt is this: You don't tweet when you’re drunk, and you certainly don't buy a car when you’re drunk. It was dreadful."
