      The most touching moment between the film of them was never filmed - when Hammond had his (first) accident, Jeremy and James dropped what they were doing and drove as fast as possible to be at the hospital and it was while driving Clarkson had flashbacks to his last desperate drive to the hospital when his dad was about to die

    Oh, I remember that very last TG episode with only May and Hammond. Felt so weird to see the studio with only those two in it. Also, that "last" GT episode really is hard to watch, I think in a way that it was the moment they (or at least Clarkson) could say good bye to TG as well. Let us hope that the specials keep coming out at a steady pace to still bless us with their shenanigans.
    Growing up with these three, I don't want to think about the day they decide to retire, eventhough I know that day comes closer and closer. These three are special, and I am thankful for being able to see them on TV throughout the years.

    James has stated in several interviews that he had just signed up to work on another project when he was given the job on top gear. this clashed with the first series filming, so he waited for the 2nd series later that year to join Clarkson and Hammond.

      Yup. The two shows are mostly laughs, but a surprising number of moments are quite moving. I'm not even British, but I got misty-eyed watching a few TG series finales, like the one closing out S20 with all the British-made cars and other motorized vehicles. There are plenty other examples not in this video. Still, I think Clarkson driving a 928 to say goodbye to his dad has got to top all the rest.

    The utter face of joy of Jeremy at 0:46 while James and Richard pull over is the same level of feelings and sentiment at 6:06 when he has to say goodbye to the tent and the live audience. That's how much GT and the 17 years since the start of TG (16, James) meant to him. And to all of us who have lost hours and hours watching them being stupid, angry, using terrible accents, going everywhere, wielding machetes, screwing with another cars, arguing again, and then laughing and caring for each other. Hopefully later on Amazon and Clarkson decide to return the tent or even the travelling show. But, as a fan from a far away place from England, where hippos roam and people mate with donkeys, thank you, Jeremy, for all of this. And thank you, Niks V, incT and all the other compilers of those great moments of the shows.
    I would also put the end of the Britcar race in the compilation, but again, thank you.

      I was told something by my best friend along the lines of “don’t be sad he’s gone, be glad he was here” and you take all the great moments and despite the pain, you do laugh to yourself and have a warm feeling. Sounds strange but only those who are there will understand.
      Steve you are his legacy and never forget that. You honour him everyday by never forgetting. You gave him for the country and it’s something that can’t never be appreciated ever.
      But I thank you and your family for the ultimate sacrifice you all made for my family’s protection and safety.

    I'm 19 and teary eyed about the end of an era. These three men, the TV Holy Trinity as I call them, were my childhood tv entertainers, as I watched every episode. Same thing with the Old Top Gear Show with Tiff, and the new Grand Tour. I was in early single digits when I was introduced to the season 1 of Top Gear with Jason. I never looked back as I was hooked. When James May came on board, I enjoyed it even more. These three men will go down in my "book'" of TV history as The Holy Trinity.
