Richard Hammond has talked about the Grand Tour amid online rumours of a reunion with Jeremy Clarkson and James May.

The trio went their separate ways professionally earlier this month with the culmination of Prime Video's The Grand Tour.

Having worked together on the show and, before that, Top Gear for a combined 22 years, the gang called it a day with one final special.

Mr Clarkson, Mr May and Mr Hammond officially called it quits in July when all three stars signed off on the dissolution of their company which made the shows, W. Chump and Sons.

Prime Video’s One for the Road was released last month and featured an outing in Zimbabwe and Botswana but many fans did not want the trio’s adventures to stop there.

After officially calling it quits, over 12,000 fans were then shocked to see an apparent reunion between Clarkson, Hammond and May.

Sharing a photograph of the trio standing outside a plane with bags packed, social media poster Scott Tomlinson wrote: “Another Tour.”

Fans were sent into a frenzy assuming that the photograph confirmed an instant U-turn on the three presenters’ decision to walk away from projects together.

“Tell me they are doing another one,” said one excited fan.

Another added: “I hope they keep doing these trips as there’s more for them to do.”

Yet this was debunked as an old photograph from the Poland tour in 2022 with fans being left disappointed over the social media gaffe.

Richard Hammond has instead declared the project completely over and emotionally looked back at the trio's time together.

“It was moving, it was the end of a way of life, it’s a career, that wasn’t a job,” he said in a recent interview.

“When we started one of the camera assistant was 23 [years old] and he's now 45 with family of his own.

“We’ve grown up with it. We were a band of brothers and sisters and that can only come together on that show.

“I still haven’t got my head around it, I’m still coming to terms with it.

“There’ll never be that moment when we set off, that moment with the first action.

“The end of these things they’re making way and moving over and other stuff will come along.”
