It was handbags at dawn when the final episode of The Grand Tour was filmed.
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May had some spats while travelling through Zimbabwe. Things got so bad they vowed never to speak again.
James said: “It’s in our nature to be horrible about each other. And there are a few moments like that in the episode… like when I say, ‘I’m deleting their numbers from my phone as soon as it’s over’.

“That’s us being quite British and undermining our own feelings, which I think is the right thing to do because that’s genuinely us.”
James knows how easily they clash so tried everything he could to avoid a row. He added: “I remember saying in an early meeting that it was important that we actually genuinely enjoyed our cars and didn’t allow it to descend into too much bickering or aggressive pranking of each other!”
Despite making up, the trio don’t seem keen to work together again and have no plans for making any more shows. But James said: “I don’t think it will be possible to completely shake them off – I could try.”

The final instalment The Grand Tour: One For The Road will stream on Prime Video from Friday.
It comes after Jeremy Clarkson warned it’s too dangerous to film top notch travel shows these days.
The presenter, 64, jetted around the world for decades to film cracking footage for Top Gear and The Grand Tour. But he reckons too many countries are off limits now due to conflicts and terrorism.
He said: “We’ve done everything you can realistically do with a car and the world has shrunk and that’s the tragedy. Years ago, we drove from Iraq into eastern Turkey into Syria, Damascus and Israel. We did the Crimea to Ukraine. You couldn’t do any of that now.
“There’s some rich ground in and around Indonesia, but you can’t really go there either. North Africa, apart from Morocco, is completely out.” Read the full story here.
