Grand Tour hosts call it a day and close their production company
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May are dissolving their production company. After 21 years of working together and wrapping up their ‘Grand Tour’ series, the trio has agreed to dissolve W. Chump and Sons.
According to the Daily Mail, the company has “filed three documents with Companies House – declaring solvency, appointing a voluntary liquidator, and making a ‘special resolution to wind up’.” This suggests that their TV partnership is ending for now.
James May recently expressed surprise at their longevity in the industry. On ‘The Today Podcast,’ he said, “We’ve done it for nearly 22 years – a lot longer than we thought we would. I thought, when I started in 2003 or 2004, that this was a bit of a laugh. Maybe it’ll last a few years. And, here we are, grey and wizened and sagging. And we’ve only just stopped doing it. It’s quite remarkable. You have to be grateful for the opportunity and thankful that it happened, and accept … you know, I don’t want to be the person in the pub who used to be on the telly.”
James also mentioned that it’s unlikely they will reunite for another motoring show. When asked about the possibility, he responded, “We’re not going to make another series together about cars, no. Well, hang on. You should never say no, should you? I think it is pretty unlikely.”
