The Grand Tour presenters 'wouldn't' do their own version of Clarkson's Farm on Prime Video — but they do have another ingenious idea for a potential spinoff
With all six episodes of the new series of The Grand Tour now on Prime Video , you've probably binged them as quickly as I did.
<![CDATA[ <article> <p>With all six episodes of the new series of<em> </em><a href="https://www.techradar.com/streaming/amazon-prime-video/the-grand-tour-review"><em>The Grand Tour</em></a> now on <a href="https://www.techradar.com/uk/streaming/amazon-prime-video">Prime Video</a>, you've probably binged them as quickly as I did.</p><p>I was so pleasantly surprised by the natural chemistry between new presenters James Engelsman, Thomas Holland and Francis Bourgeois that now I want to see the trio do even more together.</p><p>Head to <a href="https://www.techradar.com/uk/tag/youtube">YouTube </a>and you'll find some additional videos of the trio together, ranging from more Grand Tour-related content to separate clips posted on Engelsman and Holland's channel, <em>Throttle House</em>. </p><p>But what if that's not enough? What if — and I'm massively running before I can walk here — <a href="https://www.techradar.com/uk/tag/amazon">Amazon </a>is so pleased with the trio that they want to commission a spinoff?</p><p><a href="https://www.techradar.com/news/how-to-watch-clarksons-farm-online-stream-jeremy-clarksons-new-amazon-prime-series"><em>Clarkson's Farm</em></a> is the blueprint that immediately springs to mind (for obvious Jeremy Clarkson-based reasons), but according to the team, their spinoff would have to look like something else entirely.</p><div style="min-height: 250px;"> <div class="kwizly-quiz kwizly-OaLJdW"></div> </div> <script src="https://kwizly.com/embed/OaLJdW.js" async></script><h2 id="39-clarkson-can-39-t-even-do-clarkson-39-s-farm-39">'Clarkson can't even do Clarkson's Farm'</h2><figure class="van-image-figure inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1920px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="Epm8dmUSW24ThKbuwnBqKe" name="the-grand-tour" alt="James Engelsman, Thomas Holland and Frances Bourgeois lean on a blue car" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/Epm8dmUSW24ThKbuwnBqKe.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1920" height="1080" attribution="" endorsement="" class="inline"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Prime Video)</span></figcaption></figure><p>"I don't know. I think Clarkson can't do <em>Clarkson's Farm</em>... that's what makes it so entertaining to watch," Engelsman jokes. "We would not be able to do the farm."</p><p>But that doesn't mean that they don't have ideas. In fact, leave it to <a href="https://www.techradar.com/uk/computing/internet/social-media/tiktok">TikTok </a>star Bourgeois, who seems to be able to turn his hand to just about anything, to have a completely unexpected spinoff idea. </p><p>"I'd do the cafe at Queenstown Road Station. There's a business opportunity there," he explains. "The aperture where the tickets would be sold as you go into the station is still there. So I don't know why it isn't utilised to sell coffee through there too. Then there's a disused platform at Queenstown Road Station that could then be the outdoor coffee veranda with a view of the railway."</p><p>If you've ever wanted to meet Bourgeois and hoped he would be exactly like he seems online, hopefully this exchange confirms that as the truth. Stick this concept on <a href="https://www.techradar.com/uk/streaming/bbc-iplayer">BBC </a>2 or Channel 5, and I'd be lapping it up like there's no tomorrow. </p><p>"This is our retirement plan," Holland laughs. "Maybe it could be a joint venture. Don't tell her anymore about it... this is our new business."</p><p>In all seriousness, I think we'd be waiting for years if a trio spinoff were to be announced. Instead, let's hope that <em>The Grand Tour</em> will be renewed for more seasons... my fingers are crossed. </p><div data-widget-type="review" data-model-name="Amazon Prime Video"></div> </article> ]]>
