So that's what made him soft, huh.. What a pity. I must admit, compated to Top Gear, The Grand Tour has been pretty weak so far. The humor has suffered greatly on Grand Tour. I truly do believe that some people work better under a limit.. I hate that so many jokes are just so much on the nose now. I don’t get why they’re being “generous” with their audience, why they care if we get the joke or not. One of the best things about TG was that some of the jokes flew over your head and only later you understood them, and that made it so much better. Now it’s like they’re holding a sign “LOOK HERE, THIS IS A JOKE!”. P.S. i don’t mean every joke they tell is bad, but you can see the difference.
@@nothajzl Nah its just that unfortunately times have changed, its just so much harder to do comedy nowadays when you have that kind of popularity. So many of the jokes they used to make that were borderline 8-10 years ago would never fly today. Think about how the how much shit spotify has gotten from their own employees for their deal with joe rogan and he isnt anywhere near as controversial as they sometimes could be.
@@henrywilson575 I don't really feel like top gear was all that "edgy" tbh. Sure they were some pushing of boundaries here and there but mostly their jokes were at the expense of each other and 90% of their jokes weren't problematic in any way I would say. Just snippy British humor. Also, considering what American shows and even other British shows were doing at that time (i.e full on racist stereotypes and offensive drivel masquerading as "humor"), the worst top gear did was call each the r word.
I love how the apologies start with a promise of sincerity, as if to appease the offended, and then immediately transposes into a one-liner that reoffends the offended, and offends 3 more, yet you can't help but love them for it. Never change kings, never change.

the complaints get more and more stupid as the show goes on until jeremy gets fired. it kinda shows the progression into the issue we have today where you can’t say anything like this anymore on live TV.
"This is for all the people who say "You're only interested in expensive cars;" you're damn right, the new Lamborghini Gallardo" One of the best lines in the whole show
This is the way to do it. Nothing hurts easily offended and irrationally angry people more than saying, "I acknowledge your opinion and I do not care about it."
Honestly, I wish entertainment was still like this. You cant please everyone and no matter what, someone is going to be offended and complain, just because thats what they do. These days those people use Twitter. Obviously, its different if they were slinging around actual slurs, but getting bent out of shape over jokes is YOUR problem. Words only have as much power as we give them and I firmly believe that the only way to get rid of the issues in this world is to make them laughing stocks.
Very true! Virtually everything can be funny in the right light or situation, jokes are jokes and getting offended by them is missing the point. But as you say it's different these days, it's like there's a small but very vocal minority getting offended by everything and they get to dictate what the majority can enjoy. Jordan Peterson made a very interesting point in an interview, that you "can't say anything about anything important ever without offending" and continues to make the point that there's this idea today that you can't offend anyone. So what if you're speaking to one person, do you have the right to offend that person? What if you're speaking to 10 people? Do you get to offend 1 in 10? Or 1 in a 1000?

Yes, appeared to be genuinely caught out by that. I think I remember the episode but wouldnt have written in to point it out though. I think some people have too much time on their hands.
I think it was also because it seemed like he made a genuine mistake rather than the usual kind of skits they do without caring about anyone else. And also that traffic rules are something he probably takes more seriously than people's opinions.
I love how all of these clips are Jeremy sarcastically apologising, whilst Richards comes up with something funny to say, and James just sits reflecting on his life.

They're the champions of common sense, and considering their shows include caravan conkers, chucking cars off cliffs, and a lot of explosions, that's alarming.
@@Mustang150ythat episode tried to address what they were saying but it kinda missed the point. I don’t want totally unscripted with none of them knowing what they doing. But I also don’t want obviously scripted explosions and accidents, these guys aren’t actors I can’t watch the motorhone special again because of the obvious scripting.
I am absolutely amazed at how those three control their laughter, i absolutely cannot understand how they do it. Even in comedy films there are so many bloopers where they fall over laughing and they can only shoot it when they do it so many times it becomes boring. These guys are actually incredible
There is one fact about this show many have forgotten about (even though it has been only a few short years) and some other people try to bury because the trio is not woke: when the trio left, Top Gear was the biggest TV show (not just car show) on the planet and by far the biggest money earning program for the BBC. They were actually profitable. Just a shame it ended the way it did
It's been almost a decade not a few short years like you said, I will always go back to top gear, it just feels more genuine to me than the grand tour.
Didn't the show end because Clarkson punched a coworker in the face because Clarkson was hungry? Doesn't seem very woke to fire someone who attacked a fellow employee due to missing lunch.
Lol the Condor joke was on its own league 😂😂😂😂😂 I remember seeing that for the first time and truly was expecting an apology to Argentina. Lol!!!!! I imagined the faces of Argentinians 🤣
1:11 when Clarkson said that I was thinking, “definitely no Americans complained about this because for Americans, London stops when you get to the Scottish border.”
@@Bendwow That's kinda the thing. Being unpopular with those short-bus occupants USED to be a much smaller deal than it is now. So at the time it was produced, it wasn't controversial. It is retroactively controversial though, or at least would be if the full episodes could be found anywhere LMAO.
Or you could just stop saying racist & hurtful slurs, stop stereotyping nationalities & class and stop punching down at others who get it from everyone 24/7 and get actual hatred and abuse from those that think they're funny calling anyone in the UK that isn't white a terrorist and telling them to go back where they came from. Just a thought.
Talking about Morris Marinas I always remember with my mine the terrible decision of which to keep off of the windscreen wipers or headlamps on a dark rainy night so as to not overload the dynamo with everything going off.
I think the best thing about Top Gear, was I could sit at home and watch it on TV, sitting in my living room on a couch or lounge chair. And not have to stand in the audience. Much more enjoyable sitting and laughing at their antics.
People who are bored enough to choose to get offended at clearly not ill intentioned jokes are not worth appeasing. Im glad these three legends always had integrity.
Every marina that they destroy makes the remaining cars rarer,therefore more valuable,it's a win win situation for everybody,the marina owners are about 2p better off and there's less chance of us encountering one😁.
It is true that there will always be someone who will complain. Jezza, Hamster and Slow were brilliant at telling this minority that they didn't care. And carried on regardless. Oh how I do miss them.
It's not banter. This excuse is fucking ridiculous. Some of it is harmless "yeah this was a bit silly" but a lot of it is cruel and cowardly shaming of anyone who isn't English, cherry picking specific stereotypes to laugh at while those people get it all day every day. It's just bullying from a place of privilege. You think you're equal to them but they're on 6-7 figure salaries with multiple properties and cars while some of us starve on £250 a month and they laugh and call us lazy & unemployed while they charge us £1000 a month rent for a house that hasn't been upgraded since the 70s and literally do nothing themselves all day but leech off of other people's income.
@@Whiteythereaper If the BBC actually gave a fuck about peoples feelings they should have snuffed Jimmy Savilles career the first time Johnny Rotten outed him. Yet they kept Jimmy on, and banned Johnny. After that the BBC should just refrain from passing judgement.
Basically he said some offensive stuff about truckers like the line "all truckers do is change gear change gear check mirrors murder prostitutes" and people were pissed. He instead apologized for not putting the Porsche gt2 laptime because during that lorry episode, he actually didn't put the lap time
Yes, it’s a reference to the fact that a number of American tv dramas and films, whenever they feature truck drivers, nearly always portray them as killers. A few episodes of CSI and Criminal Minds spring to mind as examples.
He was pertaining to the Yorkshire Ripper who was a lorry driver who murdered prostitutes in the 80s. He used the guy as inspiration for the lorry driver stereotype lol.
I love their No Holds Barred attitude about everything. They are from a time when no one was offended about everything. The world has gone Offended Crazy. We need shows like this back on the air. To teach people how to laugh at the absurdity of the shit everyone is so easily offended by these days.
Ah yes the same time then people thought rock music was of the devil, wanted dungeons n dragons banned and where offended by minority’s wanting equal rights. So in conclusion small groups of people have always been offended by stupid shit all that’s changed is what they are offended by.

@@Mustang150y yeah 😅
@@Mustang150ythat episode tried to address what they were saying but it kinda missed the point. I don’t want totally unscripted with none of them knowing what they doing. But I also don’t want obviously scripted explosions and accidents, these guys aren’t actors I can’t watch the motorhone special again because of the obvious scripting.
I am absolutely amazed at how those three control their laughter, i absolutely cannot understand how they do it. Even in comedy films there are so many bloopers where they fall over laughing and they can only shoot it when they do it so many times it becomes boring. These guys are actually incredible
Maybe just check out bloopers and outtakes?
Top gear was never the same after these 3 juvinile delinquents left. Thank god for The grand tour 😃
God the chemistry and comedy between these three is amazing! They take complaints and make it funny.
I must leave a complain here. I live in Mars. Please stop sending them Rovers here. Those rust easily and the dash rattles quite a bit. Thank you
There is one fact about this show many have forgotten about (even though it has been only a few short years) and some other people try to bury because the trio is not woke: when the trio left, Top Gear was the biggest TV show (not just car show) on the planet and by far the biggest money earning program for the BBC. They were actually profitable.
Just a shame it ended the way it did
This is why I hate woke people.
It's been almost a decade not a few short years like you said, I will always go back to top gear, it just feels more genuine to me than the grand tour.
Still non car people do not know existence
@@Zim5.0 7 years easily falls within the definition of "a few short years".
Didn't the show end because Clarkson punched a coworker in the face because Clarkson was hungry? Doesn't seem very woke to fire someone who attacked a fellow employee due to missing lunch.
Long live the 3 best car personalities. BBC were fools to let them go.
Lol the Condor joke was on its own league 😂😂😂😂😂
I remember seeing that for the first time and truly was expecting an apology to Argentina. Lol!!!!! I imagined the faces of Argentinians 🤣
As an Argentinian, I love that he didn't actually apologize, those idiots in the south misrepresented us and don't deserve any respect 😤
Since when do the Argies deserve an apology?
THE FALKANDS ARE BRITISH!🇬🇧
They were probably too busy harbouring and protecting the descendants of the thousands of nazi war criminals they welcomed after ww2. Filthy nation.
Just genius! There'll only ever be one TopGear. They are the best.
7:35 when Jeremy, James, and Richard left the show
The Village People look-a-likes behind James and Richard was hysterical!!😂😂😂
If they drove a Land Rover up a mountain and killed Moss, many people would be upset, most notably Richard Ayoade's wife.
That, and his sweet style.
I miss the old when you don't need to apology and make fun of them instead
piss off Clarkson
1:11 when Clarkson said that I was thinking, “definitely no Americans complained about this because for Americans, London stops when you get to the Scottish border.”
Complaints: *complaints *
Clarkson: I'm so sorry, *anyway* ...
piss off Clarkson
2:48 That is one of the oddest things I've heard people complain about, just about a caravan being burned.
They script the unscripted show, so number of letters may not be the actual truth😊
I laughed more in this twelve minute clips video than a whole series of the current show.
"Communist and Hippies"
That got a laugh outta that lol
03:21 gets me every single time ‚HAVING DEMANDED AN APOLOGY FROM THE BBC‘
I lost it when they dropped the piano on the Marina during their "apology" to the Moris Marina Owner Club 😂
This is why I love Top Gear...... controversial but what a laugh!!
I wouldn't say it's very controversial. It's unpopular for all the alt-left sjw media, but that doesn't make it controversial! 😂😂😂😂
It takes a lot to be controversial even for top gear.
Wasn't even controversial, the few people who cried never gained any real traction in the media so they were just laughed at.
@@Bendwow That's kinda the thing. Being unpopular with those short-bus occupants USED to be a much smaller deal than it is now. So at the time it was produced, it wasn't controversial. It is retroactively controversial though, or at least would be if the full episodes could be found anywhere LMAO.
What makes these 3 so funny is the fact that they give 0 fucks whatsoever.
3:20 "DEMANDED AN APOLOGY FROM THE BBC!!!!" xD
2:11 look at all those faces...this is why we enjoy these three ❤
"We particularly like the lesbian sort"
_everyone in the background smiles at once_
I wish we could still enjoy jokes like that. The world is becoming full of people who get offended by anything.
Especially whining gammons
Or you could just stop saying racist & hurtful slurs, stop stereotyping nationalities & class and stop punching down at others who get it from everyone 24/7 and get actual hatred and abuse from those that think they're funny calling anyone in the UK that isn't white a terrorist and telling them to go back where they came from. Just a thought.
@@Whiteythereaper Chill mate. This isn't about racism or stereotypes. It's about enjoying jokes instead lf crying at them.
@@Whiteythereaper Orange man bad
@@Whiteythereaper what the fuck is wrong with you
Talking about Morris Marinas I always remember with my mine the terrible decision of which to keep off of the windscreen wipers or headlamps on a dark rainy night so as to not overload the dynamo with everything going off.
I love how James May is the only one who never apologies.
Almost forgot what good British banter and bashing was like. Considering all the boring, stale and edgless shite they have on tv now
10:28 'We particularly like the lesbian sort' 😂😂😂😂
I love JC, he says it like it is and reminds us all what it means to be British
You mean insulting the Welsh, Scottish, Irish and most of the North of England non stop by calling them poor & dirty for 25 years straight?
@@Whiteythereaper Yes.
Definitely Mrs. Smith is missing.
Well Mrs. Smith's complaint was to the radio station and not to Top Gear/BBC per se.
@@ianghose1 yeah but she quite obviously complained about the TopGear-presenters
@@ianghose1 the radio station was the BBC
I think the best thing about Top Gear, was I could sit at home and watch it on TV, sitting in my living room on a couch or lounge chair.
And not have to stand in the audience. Much more enjoyable sitting and laughing at their antics.
Anyone else notice Richard Hammond slowly becoming James May for a while? lol
People who are bored enough to choose to get offended at clearly not ill intentioned jokes are not worth appeasing. Im glad these three legends always had integrity.
driving around in argentina mocking the fact that britain beat argentina in a war is not a "well intentioned joke" its being a complete asshole
This is less of a Top Gear apologies video, and more of a Jeremy Clarkson apology video. 😁
The piano on the Morris Marina gets me every time. Imagining the letter writer watching this is SO delightful.
0:15 I love how he raises his voice to sound enthusiastic but couldn’t give a f**k 🤣
How can they HATE Top gear! This is the coolest, No, BEST Car show out there.
piss off Clarkson
Every marina that they destroy makes the remaining cars rarer,therefore more valuable,it's a win win situation for everybody,the marina owners are about 2p better off and there's less chance of us encountering one😁.
It is true that there will always be someone who will complain. Jezza, Hamster and Slow were brilliant at telling this minority that they didn't care. And carried on regardless. Oh how I do miss them.
Sadly bbc has now banned any such banter
It's not banter. This excuse is fucking ridiculous. Some of it is harmless "yeah this was a bit silly" but a lot of it is cruel and cowardly shaming of anyone who isn't English, cherry picking specific stereotypes to laugh at while those people get it all day every day. It's just bullying from a place of privilege. You think you're equal to them but they're on 6-7 figure salaries with multiple properties and cars while some of us starve on £250 a month and they laugh and call us lazy & unemployed while they charge us £1000 a month rent for a house that hasn't been upgraded since the 70s and literally do nothing themselves all day but leech off of other people's income.
It's called "taking a joke"
@@Whiteythereaper
If the BBC actually gave a fuck about peoples feelings they should have snuffed Jimmy Savilles career the first time Johnny Rotten outed him.
Yet they kept Jimmy on, and banned Johnny.
After that the BBC should just refrain from passing judgement.
@@Whiteythereaper So you're actually more angry at your current situation than anything else. Got it.
@@Whiteythereaper Ah, an unfair life it is.
I love the couple of audience members that laugh after Vauxhall Corsa is said in the first clip lmao
3:10 my fav bit 😂
"the sort that they take their own lunch to work" hahaha
5:25 - “the weirdest world in the world” 😂😂
Bringing up complaints is actually a brilliant bit
10:57 not far off what the show became
The address for the Germans to write complaints to - absolute gold. Basil Fawlty would have been proud "No you started it... ".
3:12
“Thin lips, the sort who takes their own lunch to work”
Best one 😂😂😂
Top Gear at is golden age, miss them so much
8:29 that got me good 😂😂
Lol same, the camera position, the piano, the timing just perfect
I love that after the poppy complaint they cut to a clip with them all wearing poppies
5:31 What was the controversy here? What were the audience expecting him to apologise for?
Basically he said some offensive stuff about truckers like the line "all truckers do is change gear change gear check mirrors murder prostitutes" and people were pissed. He instead apologized for not putting the Porsche gt2 laptime because during that lorry episode, he actually didn't put the lap time
The clip is on YT "Jeremy Clarkson on lorry driving"
Yes, it’s a reference to the fact that a number of American tv dramas and films, whenever they feature truck drivers, nearly always portray them as killers. A few episodes of CSI and Criminal Minds spring to mind as examples.
He was pertaining to the Yorkshire Ripper who was a lorry driver who murdered prostitutes in the 80s. He used the guy as inspiration for the lorry driver stereotype lol.
@@Mustang150y thanks for explaining mate. Appreciate it.
I love their No Holds Barred attitude about everything. They are from a time when no one was offended about everything. The world has gone Offended Crazy. We need shows like this back on the air. To teach people how to laugh at the absurdity of the shit everyone is so easily offended by these days.
Ah yes the same time then people thought rock music was of the devil, wanted dungeons n dragons banned and where offended by minority’s wanting equal rights.
So in conclusion small groups of people have always been offended by stupid shit all that’s changed is what they are offended by.
9:43 laughed my ass of at that one, "or we've accidentally clubbed an old lady to death with a baby seal"
Damn near killed me ☠️☠️☠️💀💀
