The Grand Tour’s Richard Hammond is heading to Himalayas after last special
The Grand Tour's Richard Hammond speaks exclusively to RadioTimes.com about his next TV stint.
The Grand Tour is coming to an end later this year after one last special, which will see Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond heading to Zimbabwe.
While this will be the end of an era for the trio, who have been together since 2016, it won't be the end for them individually – with Richard set to head back on the road for a new series with his brother.
Asked what's next for him by RadioTimes.com, the TV presenter said: "I'm off on a mountain bike adventure in the Himalayas this year in August with one of my brothers."
It comes after after the news that Jeremy Clarkson had made the decision to quit the series, admitting he's "done everything you can do" when it comes to cars.
Clarkson said: "I’ve driven cars higher than anyone else and further north than anyone else. We’ve done everything you can do with a car."
There are just two specials of The Grand Tour remaining, including Sand Job, which launched on Amazon Prime Video today (Friday 16th February), and features the trio heading to the remote African country of Mauritania to test out cheap modified sports cars as they follow in the footsteps of the Paris-Dakar rally.
