MASSIVE PAYOUT for Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May!

Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond's partnership began with the revival of the BBC's "Top Gear" in 2002. Before the trio came together, "Top Gear" was a straightforward car review show. Clarkson had been part of the original show in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but it was the relaunch in 2002 with the new format and co-hosts that transformed "Top Gear" into a global phenomenon.
Clarkson, known for his brash and outspoken personality, brought a distinctive voice and humor to the show. Hammond, with his enthusiastic and adventurous spirit, complemented Clarkson's demeanor. May, who joined in 2003, added a contrasting calm and intellectual presence, earning the nickname "Captain Slow" due to his more measured approach. The chemistry between the three was palpable, creating a unique dynamic that set the show apart from typical car shows.
The key to their success was the genuine camaraderie and contrasting personalities of the trio. Clarkson's irreverence and wit, Hammond's eagerness and charm, and May's meticulousness and dry humor created a balanced and entertaining blend. Their interactions often involved playful banter, teasing, and mock arguments, which audiences found engaging and relatable. This chemistry was not only central to their on-screen success but also indicative of their real-life friendship.
Clarkson, May, and Hammond's collaborative efforts were instrumental in designing and executing the show's iconic challenges and stunts. Their willingness to take risks and push boundaries resulted in some of the most memorable moments in television history. From epic road trips across continents to outrageous car modifications and inventive races, their creative synergy led to innovative and highly entertaining content.
The trio worked closely with the production team, led by producer Andy Wilman, who was crucial in shaping the show's vision and execution. Their collaborative process involved brainstorming ideas, often over drinks or dinners, where they would conceive the ambitious and often absurd challenges that became "Top Gear's" trademark.
Off-screen, the trio's relationship was characterized by mutual respect and genuine friendship. Despite their on-screen personas and frequent disagreements for entertainment value, they shared a strong bond. Their friendship was built on years of working together and navigating the highs and lows of television production. They often spoke about their deep camaraderie in interviews, emphasizing the importance of trust and respect in their working relationship.
Their time on "Top Gear" was not without controversy. Clarkson, in particular, was often at the center of media storms due to his provocative comments and behavior. The most significant incident occurred in 2015 when Clarkson was involved in a physical altercation with a producer, leading to his suspension and eventual departure from the BBC. Following Clarkson's exit, May and Hammond chose to leave the show as well, demonstrating their loyalty and solidarity.
In 2016, Clarkson, May, and Hammond reunited for "The Grand Tour," an Amazon Prime Video series that carried forward the spirit of "Top Gear" with a more flexible and adventurous format. Freed from the constraints of the BBC, the trio continued to explore their creative ambitions, producing high-budget, visually stunning episodes that retained the humor and camaraderie that fans loved.
"The Grand Tour" allowed them to experiment with new concepts and global locations, further showcasing their collaborative prowess. The show's success reaffirmed the strength of their partnership and their ability to captivate audiences worldwide.
Beyond "The Grand Tour," each host has pursued individual projects while maintaining their collaborative efforts. Clarkson ventured into farming with his Amazon Prime series "Clarkson's Farm," which provided an insightful and humorous look into the challenges of agriculture. May launched "James May: Our Man in Japan" and "James May: Oh Cook!" showcasing his curiosity and culinary skills. Hammond explored engineering and automotive technology with shows like "Richard Hammond's Big."
Despite their individual endeavors, the trio frequently reunites for special episodes and continues to work together on "The Grand Tour," illustrating their enduring partnership and mutual respect.
The working relationship between Clarkson, May, and Hammond has left an indelible mark on television. Their unique blend of humor, creativity, and genuine camaraderie redefined automotive entertainment and inspired countless imitators. Their ability to balance individual personalities with collaborative storytelling created a formula that resonated with audiences globally.
Their legacy is not only reflected in the success of "Top Gear" and "The Grand Tour" but also in the lasting influence they have had on the genre.

He has brought to light and exposed to the public the severe issues of the farmers due to the complete Incomitance of the government both local and federal bot only in the UK but in many countries across the continents.

[@American-Motors-Corporation]

Well yes I will say there is no replace but I'm also a believer in the idea that though the public at first might view whoever steps into their shoes as a replacement but if they were to get three presenters especially those that's worked for them behind the scenes you know a few roadies that may have their own take on it they may have their own camaraderie you know they could step out on their own and make it their own thing which is going to be hard to do because you don't want to make it too serious especially to start out with otherwise you'll bore people but you also don't want to make it two outlandish to where it definitely looks like a bit of a rip off of Clarkson in the gang so for them to find their niche it's going to be a pain in the ass but if willman is involved which I hear he is then I'm certain they're going to cover a direction that they didn't really cover before and they'll probably still throw in some of the goofy travel stuff etc. I'm of the mindset of give it a chance we don't really know until we watch it and you know it might take a lot of people a couple of seasons before they decide whether or not it's really any good.

Well another possibility is this whole banning of James May and potentially Richard Hammond from the farm and the pub that could be somewhat of a setup for something in the future. You know it might be that James May and Richard Hammond or one of them independently is driving around the countryside for whatever reason in some whatever car and it just so happens to break down and so he has to or both of them would have to go either to the pub or the farm with their hat and their hand to try and get help of some sort. Lol And I imagine the scene would be Clarkson shows up and basically orders them out and doesn't care or it could be the Clarkson is going to and from the pub or the farm and spots this car and or cars and gets suspicious that those two are knocking around. Lol You know it could be that one of Clarkson's employees or perhaps his girlfriend allows them in their and maybe they see him coming and they try to hide in the back or something I mean who knows that I could see them do some funny little skit about how they're banned and they're not supposed to be there but then here they are.

[@wessexdruid7598]

They all admit, Top Gear was the result of a team, good screenwriters, producers and production managers who largely remained the same (unheard of in TV & film) - and, as with any effort, it is teamwork that creates great things. Underneath it all is the 40+ y.o. (from Repton School) relationship between Clarkson & Wilman. Watch Ben Collins' recent podcasts to get a feel of how things operated behind the scenes - they're excellent, particularly his two-parter with Andy Wilman (who'd ever have thought they got on so well?).

[@American-Motors-Corporation]

Well I think part of the comedy that ends up playing out when they're on the road is simply fit The writers and producers come up with things and Clarkson on the spot will either outright break the damn rule and figure out a funny way to justify it or he'll at least bend the rule and do the same and then the other is over time have gotten a little more daring about doing that That's part of the joke. So the next set of presenters did come in they're going to have to find a way to do that without looking as if they're copying them and to be honest I don't think anybody would really want to copy them because it would just ruin their reputation.

Will we get a series of Clarkson’s Boozer? ‘May…Hammond… you’re barred, Get Out, Get Out!’ 😁

If you search for 'Jeremy Clarkson' on Joe Rogan you'll get an interesting insight from an American guy who used to supply support vehicles fo them

Hammond was paid nearly a million for a 30 second sainsburys advert. Makes me sick.

[@scumdeluxe]

Crikey...that's a good hourly rate!

I hope May gets to do Man Lab and his toys shows again.

Clarkson was never sacked by the BBC. His contract expired. He was then a free agent.

[@scumdeluxe]

Not offered another... much the same

I personally think that they have done extremely well and every penny is well earned and like a 70s rock band I'm sure they will return for 1 last hoorah

so sorry. Thanks for watching!

As I have said several times before - Top Gear was the BBC's Gerald Ratner moment ie completely trashing your most successful production. Looking back it was by chance the best thing that could have happened to the 'lads', giving them more control as they went on to earn more money and do a wider range of programmes. All good things come to an end so thank you boys for excellent and entertaining television. Perfectly flat and balanced. Not a slope in sight.

Wise words! Cheers...thanks for watching. All views welcome! 😎🍺

These guys were wonderful at what they did and like everyone here I was a huge fan. Like all of us however they have grown older and there comes a time when retirement is the best option for the next phase in one's activities. As for their considerable payouts - we are talking obscene amounts and I don't think anyone is worth that.

If I were them I'd make one off car documentaries . Im sure theyd be a siccess and a break from the grand tour/top gear formats...but fun all the same.

[@scumdeluxe]

Thanks for watching!

[@VanD-Dam]

I will most definitely miss them. I’m considerably worried about Jerremy’s liver. It appears that it is taking on a life of its own in front of his gentlemens parts. He should have his brewmaster come up with NA beer.

[@scumdeluxe]

I think they have?

Richard Hammond has his own car restoration company , Richard Hammond's Workshop. It has done 3 series so far, how can you omit that ?

[@scumdeluxe]

Was riffing at that point

[@bluecarefreeforever]

TBH I have enjoyed all of their individual programmes. They must be a bit bored now doing Grand Tour as they have probably experienced every country and a bit older now. As for the money, well for the jealous ones then step up and become that sort of talent yourself and get it. At 6 million each is probably cheap and by the time tax is taken out that probably less than 3 million so good luck to them and thanks for adding the coffers for Britain and hope they carry on with their excellent individual series. 👍🏼
