I will matep
Can't get your new show in the US on Discovery Plus. What a total shame
He should name all of the thing he bought after the cars he sold to buy them.
Would Mr Hammond & Co. be interested in a 1971 Mach 1 that needs a lot of love and care? Currently living in Worcester so quite close.
Wish it was available in the US 😪
Thankfully Clarkson isn't there walking about with a hammer saying, "Hammond, what can I do to help?" 🤣
He will say : manual labour I hate it
Watch Clarkson show up in his Lambo tractor, asking for more power!
I'm honestly shocked that Clarkson and May haven't blown the place up already 😂
@@genotronex8663 Clarkson: "I'm allergic to manual labor."
You don’t need to read the manual
You can really see that Richard is passionate about this project and he puts his blood, sweat and tears into it.
The only way to to things properly
And tea, coffee, tonic.
Absolutely. He looked and sounded genuinely exhausted... Messing his words up etc
And his Lotus. And Porche.
and MONEY...$$$$
Richard seems like such a down to earth guy when it comes to it. He’s definitely passionate about his work. Glad to see all is going fairly well for him. I wish him the best of luck!
He is very different off camera
Like jeremy
Really? I always loved the three always made me laugh I know James is a great guy thow even behind camera
stewart lee doesn't think so
Fairly well. He’s worth 35 million
@@edwardbennett3572 his daughters are pigs
A car guy selling his cars for a dream like this just shows how dedicated he is. He’s got a vision grander than we know. Congratulations to Hammond and his team.
He didn't have to sell them, he is worth £40m
@@geoffgreenhalgh3553
Then why would he sell them, I wonder? I mean, just cause you’re “worth” something, doesn’t mean you have it in cash. If you have a $500k house and $10 in your bank account, you’re worth $500,010. He might have a ton of investments elsewhere that he sees as a better long term investment for himself and his family than owning a ton of cars, cause those investments could buy all those cars 10x over in a few years.
@@geoffgreenhalgh3553 being "worth" $40m doesn't mean you have $40m just sitting around lol do you even know how money works
@@destructorzz7197 I should do, I have worked for 50 years to earn it.
@@geoffgreenhalgh3553 He might just not have it in cash or he doesn't want to spend his own money too much. Probably also a calculation of upcoming costs, when the shops running...
Man, Hammond really invested very much effort in making this.
effort and some very nice vehicles
@@TheOmegaRiddler effort, very nice vehicles and hundreds of thousands of pounds 💷
What a lad! Sleepless nights working on his passion. Love him to bits, a national treasure
Richard has this, May has a pub, Clarkson has a farm. Strange times.
Pity they didn't have Top Gear
More like top gear needed them
@@jablot5054 They made their own Top Gear. With blackjack and hookers.
I've read it before (might be a hoax), that it's part of the deal with Amazon. They each can get a show, besides the GT, since it got "toned down". I'm not sure if it's true, but sure looks like it.
@@tonyus8197 this is on discovery though not prime
I love the idea of a Richard Hammond workshop
The passion of a man who loves and believes in what he wants.
You can tell that Richard is putting 110% into this.. this isn't about a tv show it's a real business and he's helping his friends have a business for the future too.
110% in the beginning of a Business is important for long term smooth sailing.
+1. .. Three Cheers to the Hammond Workshop success! .. Living a dream ..... Way-To-Go!
Congratulations on the workshop Hammond. It’s incredible.
I love the "Model car" hand rails on the 2nd floor.
Yes!! Really cool. Was waiting for a bit more excitement about them, but not mentioned.
@@adamfry1125 it shows him making them in the show! Super cool.
@@SegginsProductions ahhhh right, I'll check that out. Cheers!
And it was a father and son project as well 👍
I makes me happy to see the boys in their pursuits post Grand Tour. Clarkson has his farm, May has his pub, and Hammond has his shop. And once in a while, they show up to give us the best parts of their previous programs, mainly the specials. I like it.
Don't you just want to give him (Richard) a hug? He's obviously fully committed, and just because he's throwing money at the project, that's no guarantee of success, he needs to prove to everyone out there that this isn't a vanity project, that he has the skillset and connections as well as the enthusiasm to make it work. I'm sure he's thinking "Why" several times a day, but as long as he can match that with several resounding "Becauses" then he will get through.
It's a tough field, and you never know as much as you think you do, but I wish him, and all the others out there doing what they passionately believe in, all the best of luck.
That's dreamy stuff right there. If there ever was a goal to try to attain.. It's a workshop like that.
Richard sounds absolutely wrecked but you can just tell how proud and hopeful he is for what he's building. Top work, can't wait to see what starts coming out the doors.
If you've never started a business you will never understand the amount of stress and work Hammond is going through. He has my upmost admiration.
The railings in the last couple seconds are the best thing I have ever seen! A shop that fixes cars that has plastic looking model parts trees with full sized car parts... brilliant!
This workshop looks like a modern production plant of cars just in a small scale. Great work Mr. Hammond. Wishing a great and prosperous journey to your workshop.
Small for now.
It’s great to see what the trio are doing these days - Hammond following his passion, May having fun and Clarkson experiencing a completely new lifestyle
'The Smallest Cog'. Perfect, love the nod to his role in the TG trio
Finally the little Hamster is sounding like a business man and getting his head around what is really involved, ( he took on a lot More than he he ever dreamed he would!! )
I love this show, and love Richard Hammond and I think Neil and Anthony are both so amazing too. Wishing them all the success in the world they deserve it so much with all the hard work they have all put into it!
The enthusiasm and glint in Richard's eye is so wonderful to see. This has been a fun thing to follow. Bravo!
I LOVE this Hammond. He's so fascinated and excited. Calm demeanour and knows what he wants. All the best Hammond and hope to see you becoming a part of the history, in which you are creating.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate that the guys who made us laugh hysterically for 20 odd years are now, finally finding true happiness in their jobs. Clarkson has never been happier on his farm, May has his gin and his pub and Hammond has his restoration. Sometimes they look beleaguered and deprived of sleep but they genuinely have never looked happier about it
I love this man so much! He was my childhood crush and still is tbh! He's an absolute pleasure to watch on screen, and this is so amazing to see him in his element, fulfilling his dream!! I wish him the very best and I hope he continues to film the journey!!
0:15 that balustrade is AMAZING! 😂
Ya gotta hand it to the man, he's doing this!
The amount of entertainment the trio have provided is phenomenal
This is so fascinating and a true service to the public that has this need. My father has a 1969 Chevelle, and besides an uber-bougie and expensive classic restoration shop (which charges 'the sky's the limit' pricing), there are no restoration services here in the states. So owners have no other option than to do any type of restoration or preservation on their vehicles themselves. And from personal experience, that is not only incredibly daunting, but expensive and time consuming. I dread it whenever my father says work needs to be done on the car. And for owning an increasingly rare piece of Americana, it should be a joy and a privilege.
Thank you Richard and congratulations on your new shop. In realizing your dream, you've created a service that will help others. And if an Amazon series was to sprout from this, we would definitely watch. 🥰
Add this to the million-and-one reasons I wish I lived in the UK. ❤🇬🇧❤🚘
1969 Chevelle? I am pretty sure companies started making replacement panels for GM and Ford classics in the states. You will always have to pay premium to do classic body/frame work. That car is not particularly rare so if you know what is going out you should start looking for backup replacements either in auction sites or new versions they make online. Imagine if you had a Renault Turbo or something super rare and needed it restored.
Love his passion for this. Incredible.
Richard seems so happy about what they've done and are going to be able to do.
I'm very happy to see The Trio all doing something they love and passionate about. I grew up watching Top Gear so they've been apart of my life in a small way for as long as I can remember.
Richard, been watching you and the guys since the Veyron Jet 🏁 race. 2007? I'm 41 and have been in a shop from the age of 2. Absolutely wish you the best of luck from the state's. The real ones that is, The South. Best of luck in making your grandfather proud. The rest of us already are...
The car parts used up top as a guard rail, looks like a parts tree from a model car kit. That is fantastic, such a cool look.
A huge amount of respect for Richard Hammond! How cool is this!
Literally, blood sweat and tears invested in this - well done Hamster!
The brilliance in the name of the shop... Very Top Gear / Grand Tour'esque type of humor...
From someone who worked for a big company called car shop with a similar layout, word of advice look after your staff
The difference there is that you worked for a big company.
The details are stunning, massive paint booth, WOW!
I'm in love with the railing and car bits that are giant models, they are perfect!
Jobs well done, everything that rolls out of this garage will have such skill & top notch quality!
So happy for you all, such an amazing new location!
Richard has a serious work ethic!
It's great to see the garage altogether and up and running. So magnificent effort has gone in to overcome all the trials and tribulations you have faced.
💪💪
Wish Richard every success in his new garage. Onwards and upwards.
Hammond has such a soothing and articulate way of speaking, always love listening to him talking about things he's passionate about!
It's awesome seeing something Hammond has put so much time and effort and passion into finally coming to fruition
What a nice workshop. And I love that Richard knows what he is talking about.
I wish him all the best for the future
Loving the show. I think Richard Hammond's Workshop has replaced the void of Clarkson's Farm while we wait for season 2. Funny that.
The very best of luck with this great endeavour looks like a fantastic start
i can't wait to see what Richard & Neil & Anthony work on next. what a beautiful set of stages in that workshop. so pleased to see the website & business is a go!
Fantastic video... Richards smile said everything, like he's a new Dad.
You can feel the passion coming from Hammond. Love it !
Yes. This is brilliant. Well done Richard Hammond.
It's very clear he is so happy about this. I hope he does well.and keeps enjoying it.
Dear Richard,I keep your name in my "special place" in my brain to visit you as soon as money come my way!!!!
I can't wait!
One of the best shows I've seen in such a long time. So much passion and fun and madness 😂😂😂
All the very best of luck Richard with the workshop and the series.
I can see James May has had his modelling influence included with those giant sprues.
I just binge watched Richard Hammond's Workshop and it's such a great show. I was never a fan of restoration barn find type shows because of the staged fighting and chaos (think American Choppers), but this show is completely different. It's just a bunch of real down to earth dudes just trying to start a business. Richard Hammond really put his heart in this to make sure Neil and his family succeed. The amount of money he put just to make sure he doesn't fail the guys is pretty heartwarming. Enjoyed the show, can't wait to see more of it.
I wish Hammond the best of luck with his shop and his new show! It must be so cool working on those old cars, probably quite a handful too but I bet it's worth it to spend time around those beauties.
Warmest congratulations are winging their way to you across the pond from western Canada, Richard. Well done, mate!
Love the model kit motif in gray up in the back as a safety railing for the mezzanine. I like all the little touches.
Richard, you have not disappointed.
This is all fascinating and I love that Richard is doing something he's so passionate about
Great job Richard.
Best wishes for every success going ahead!
Thanks for posting.
The way he's telling it, with that little boy smile from ear to ear on a Christmas morning got me unconsciously smiling too. Obviously I don't know Richard but I just for the passion and excitement he's got going on, I can just hope the best for him and this enterprise. Long live the smallest cog!
Chapeau to Richard Hammond. Well Done!
Seeing Hammond, may and Clarkson go on to do things they enjoy has been so amazing
Beautiful to watch someone with a passion work on exactly that
Richard hey - what a man - after all the stress and work he takes the time to do a great interview - well done all
What a workshop! I hope it goes well
I know not all people that have an incredible ambition and drive are successful, but most people that are successful have it.
Hammond is a multi-millionaire who realistically can buy everything he wants, yet he still works double shifts for a passion project like this.
Incredible ambition, top lad!
Congrats to Richard. You know he's going to do great work.
Great great man Hammond is... and great to see he's doing what he's passionate about..
Richard, iam sooo very proud and happy for you!!
Your a wonderful person, Iam frome America and I wish you had this on Amazon so we could watch you every week!!
HAY ANAZON, HINT. HINT!!!!!
Hammond ... HAMMOND !!! ... Its just fantastic that we all get to see ya doing what you're passionate about ... Our household will watch anything you or the 2 other lads are doing ... A stable of TV viewing ... 😎
Congratulations and well wishes Richard, many Happy years to come.
The years of watching driveTribe have paid off: Funny story: I watched this months ago… repainting booth gave me an idea when Looking at improving our paint setup… machinist was giving me a quick tour of his shop. He showed me where they were trying to paint a very smooth and uniform surface on some expensive materials for neutrino detection… not very successfully… ignore the highly radio active detector they pulled out of a salt mine in New Mexico… and it was a nice setup but looked at how they were venting and was like your always going to have turbulent flow in that room, he was like what… and then share a link to this video and they were like wow! We got to build that! Thanks Richard!
We all wish you the best and great success Richard.
Well done Richard. I wish you and your colleagues every success.
WIshing the best of luck for Hammonds new workshop 👍
Fair play to Richard, the things you really want rarely come with zero sacrifice and you've literally put your everything into it, really looking forward to seeing this grow
I’d like to wish Richard and the team all the best for the future! This could be the start of something incredible!
Beautiful shop! Congrats and happy restoring!
I love the mezzanine tailings!!! Like car model kit parts! Congrats Hammond!!
so awesome seeing something like this taking place. gonna be great to see what they put out
Would love to get James’s and Clarksons reaction to the place
They are conspicuous by their absence a bit, aren't they? I mean, this is a really life changing thing for Hammond to do, and they're nowhere in sight. I mean, surely they have between them some old bangers that they need 'fixing up' at least!
@@StockportJambo Based on what I seen/heard over the years, they are probably staying away to not distract or get in the others business. May has been pretty clear that for the most part it's a professional relationship. (Edit: I mean staying away from a 'media' point of view. I'm sure they're personally happy for Richard)
@@Lanxe As I understand it, they're not "friends" in real life, and do not meet in private, their relationship is purely professional. Allegedly they don't even like each other very much, according to James May.
depending on how we interpret "don't like each other that much" it can be pure professional relationship or more on a bit friendly love hate relationship.
But there is the fact that they spend tens of years working together and not just normal office work. There are time where they need to be together for days, sometimes in a bit frustrating condition. It's obvious they want to have more personal space and working environment.
@@Bannimann2 They downplay their friendship to not generate fuss and stir potential paps when they do engage with each other is what i've gathered. SO many times i've heard either one of the chaps mention hanging out with one or the other.
This is incredible! All the best, Rich.
Congratulations Mr. Hammond. Love the second floor railing model kit aesthetic. Very clever. Cheers
Well, Ive been a fan of Mr.Hammond since he first showed up in TG,, but have to say.. now I appreciate him even more.
Great seeing Richard as he is, rather than his TV persona. Full of enthusiasm brimming over and it’s great to see.
Loving the show looking forward to it each week
Worth the discovery+ subscription
Awesome. Surely every enthusiast has dreamed of owning something like that: all you need to make perfection. Great to see traditional engineering still, somehow, carries on. Best of luck and hope it takes off.
Nothing comes to those that dont graft but the best thing that will ever come is tottal respect to you Mr Hammond Been there seen all these hours and its hard so so hard
but at the end there is always light and when you get there it will be fantastic Well done so far sir !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm extremely proud of the work and dedication he's put into that shop keep up the great work man
Congratulations, Hammond and team! Very cool.
A lot of love for this content, thank you.
Love the show. Hopefully a series 2 coming up.
