As with much of the entertainment sector, The Grand Tour has been put on hold throughout most of 2020 thanks to the ongoing global health crisis, and it stopped them from filming a Season 4 special of the show. While original plans would have seen May take an epic road trip around Russia with co-hosts Richard Hammond and Jeremy Clarkson, this coincided with announcements of travel restrictions and heightened health concerns in March, forcing the trip to be called off. With some areas of the world starting to return back to normal, it looks like the Grand Tour crew, as well as distributors Amazon Prime Video, are thinking about how they can get the show back on the road. \u201cThe effects of lockdown on making TV shows is that we have to retract our ambitions for travel,\u201d he told The Sun. \u201cIt\u2019s not just, \u2018Can we get on an aeroplane and go somewhere?\u2019 but, \u2018Are we going to be able to do anything when we get there?\u2019 He continued: \u201cWe may have to accept that if you\u2019re in Britain or America, us being in Cambodia or Africa is exotic, but for our viewers in those places us being in Ireland would be exotic. So maybe we have to start thinking a bit more like that.\u201d Speaking highly of the opportunities available to the team across the UK, May hinted at some possible filming locations for their next special, including Scotland, Cornwall, Dorset, Wales and the Ring of Kerry in Ireland. May wanted to reiterate that it wasn\u2019t all bad in terms of the future of the show, reiterating that it is \u201cpostponed, not canceled.\u201d \u201cI think Amazon would say the same thing,\u201d he noted. \u201cWe would rather wait a bit longer rather than rushing it for the sake of it and coming out with something half-a*sed.\u201d The most recent episode of The Grand Tour aired was Episode 1 of Season 4, which saw the trio travelling across Vietnam\u2019s Mekong Delta in boats. When the rest of the season gets back underway, including the specials they have planned, remains a mystery; but rest assured they will be coming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>James May provides disappointing update on The Grand Tour Season 4 Amazon Prime Video[jwplayer gUA1PWVE]The Grand Tour co-host James May has provided a bleak update on the future of The Grand Tour, with no clear insight into when filming will go ahead \u2014 and potential location for upcoming episodes.
