James May roasts Richard Hammond's new workshop!

Watch more from Richard Hammond's Workshop: bit.ly/HammondWorkshop-SV16-YT
It was inevitable that one day James would venture to Hereford to check out The Smallest Cog, Richard Hammond's new classic car restoration workshop. And of course, he immediately set about roasting every aspect of Hammond's pride and joy.

I love the trio in their own ways, but James, man, he's special. My favorite presenter and will always be.

[@freqeist]

[@jonetshkin]

I used to think James as a boring old man, now that I'm older I think he is the funniest of the trio. His humor is just on different level.

[@birdbrain4445]

Honestly if you're someone that grew up watching Top Gear and any other content involving these three, I think who your favourite is changes with age, as it did for me. I think when you're a young kid, Hammond is the one that would appeal to you the most; the most outwardly charming of the bunch (and the most kid and family-friendly media personality of the bunch, you may know him from other shows too) with a lot of obviously funny lines and imaginative, if a bit silly ideas. Then as you progress to being a teen, you start to prefer Jeremy and his loud, brash, contrarian, no-nonsense and inconsiderate approach to... everything. I think though as you grow past that into your 20s etc., you do start to realise that not only is James the most intelligent and well-rounded of the bunch, but yeah his humour, his one-liners and stories are just amazing, in a way that might go over your head (again, as it did for me) when you're younger. 'She's effectively saying 'You've given me the baby, now get in the back.''

They are best as a trio and they know it. Still, I always love watching James and Richard content.

The banter between these 3 is representative of every great friendship any of us have ever had. Far from unique but equally special and to see it evolving on tv for years is a rarity.

[@metallicafan11787]

@Paul he was probably being sarcastic

[@kylehardy7519]

@Paul Not that it really matters if they are friends or not but in the interview you're referencing James May actually just says they're not best or close friends. "Some people think we live in a big house together with our cars parked outside. But that’s nonsense. We don’t really hang out with each other." "We don’t speak or text on a weekly basis because we don’t need to." “There are people that you like arguing with and like having them there for the purposes of interaction and debate and stimulation, it’s that rather than, ‘Let's go for a pint together and play Dominos’. “I like seeing the other two because they wind me up.” “There is a rapport obviously, it wouldn’t work if you didn’t have that. “But, we’re not friends as in you're friends with your old school mates, your gang you’ve grown up with for many years.”

[@RealRavi]

Especially for 20 years!

[@danielmoss895]

As pairs they have differing grievances about the third. Clarkson and Hammond gang up on May because they think he's boring and old-fashioned whereas Clarkson and May gang up on Hammond because they think he's uncultured and crashes too often. Hammond and May gang up on Clarkson because he's obsessed with power and going fast and because he doesn't think before he acts. Clarkson knew May prior to the Top Gear 2002 revival, then worked with Hammond for a full season before May joined the revived show in series 2. Hammond and May's friendship would've developed somewhat during the car vs race segments, especially as a result of having to deal with with Clarkson's gloating.

[@jcgaming908]

This is the reason why the current top gear doesnt work because there is no friendship or chemistry between the presenters.

They do a cracking roast with all the trimmings, Hammond will love it.

[@nathanaelmansfield6026]

I love how well made and presented this video is, but in the end, it's really just James causing a row in his mates shop. Poking into the bathroom, releasing a dangerous animal, and stealing biscuits. Not to mention roasting the Hamster. Hard.

Vampire 2 for space heater was hilarious.

[@Ethan-ky2qz]

this is the politest roast of something i think i've ever seen.

[@rodrigowestphalen7231]

06:08 James 1 chasing the dog while James 2 reviews the painting bay.

[@mhoang_tran]

4:43 I fully expected James to turn every bottle to the front, so that they can be easily identified and accessed.

Richard. Looks like a real shop. Love it. I think James thought so too. Proper garage.

[@NackDSP]

I've never seen James May so happy. Love it.

[@stalhein62]

James could make reading the shipping forecast sound interesting

[@daveseddon5227]

You mean he would make it even more interesting!

[@jurrich]

Fran?

[@gro9465]

The shipping forecast IS interesting.

Can I get a youtube seriies with James walking into random shops touring them, eating their breakroom food 😂

[@mvonsmallhausen3221]

I suppose "James May stole my biscuit" wouldn't be the worst line a car mechanic can put in his resume.

[@stogash]

the railing that looks like model kit gates...thats so cool love that idea

[@Happiness71]

Love those guys. Can't wait for the second season of Richard Hammond's Workshop, and also for the Drivetribe videos here 💙💙💙⚙️⚙️⚙️

[@pistonsjem]

make (or force) james to review all of his bike collection!

[@captchunkytoes]

the railings shaped like giant model kit pieces are awesome

[@CamAteUrKFC]

I love the cute old dog barking at him lol.

[@chichotwojay740]

I love how the three constantly make old top gear references. Top gear isn’t a show. Top gear is the trio. Whatever they do, regardless of name is: top gear. Any new presenters ‘acting as top gear’ are as much of a threat to the trio as a child with a toy bow against a mail clad soldier. ‘The smallest cog’ in a gear box is top gear. I love it.

Alternative title: James May complimenting on his colleague's workshop for 8 minutes straight PS: I bet he loves the Airfix guardrails.

[@Drake-ef1mg]

Who let the dogs out? 5:52 We finally know who did it

[@sianwarwick633]

the two politest people in the world have a nice-off about biscuit theft at 7:23
