Prolly staged

@@nickcrompton485 Nope, the show was popular around the world, watched by an audience of 350 million in 214 territories and was the most pirated BBC show.

Harvey Brooks doesnt mean that exacly THIS encounter wasnt staged, tbh that guy doesnt seem to be so interested in james as if he were a fan

I do apologies great knowledgeable one.

Captin Slo

That’s awesome haha. Some of the commenters are saying you were a paid actor and it was staged.

I'm sorry but Emillio is a Spanish and Italian surname. I don't believe you. Send us social media or something.

Idrees Khan you’re right there are no western names in all of Africa you got em.

Crazy, I try not to delete too many scenes on my channel, whereI take trucks to the mountains to wreck em. Hopefully make some people laugh.

@@obviousgreyman It just isn't sounding believable lets be real.

absolutely priceless lol

i really wanted to see the reaction from the traffic police during that scene

@@brinohosey7498 Poor you.

Self burn! Those are rare

That part defidently caught me off guard.

I would feel honored.

Why is it random when it's Uganda?

​@@lvseka Because cultures differ so much, especially between continents. It would be random if it were a guy from anywere other than a native English-speaking country.

I was in Uganda a couple of years ago and I watched some reruns of TG on television so it is actually not that surprising some one recognized May

​@@MrJimheerenoooo okay, sorry Mr "I've been to Uganda" 🤓

Sorry? the cut bits of a show "Which weren't cut in the UK" are better than the........ Oh I see!! the new season of Top Gear! Yeah totally agree, in fact anything is better than Top Gear after they left.

Faxxxxxxxxx! 📠💯

Imagine a Top Gear special Livestream. Where there's no cut at all. Even when they're sleeping.

@Jkinsg92 '[The Grand Tour] hasn’t lived up to the old top gear at all.' Grand Tour's Mongolia Special is possibly their best one yet. The hardest I laughed was at the Mozambique Special, and Namibia was awesome. International Buffoon's Vacation is great fun, too, as was Colombia. The normal episodes have largely the same concepts, just on a bigger budget. There's some fantastic documentary episodes amongst them.

Spot on

And if it was still on tv

@@large2049 I would watch it.

Yeah, the reason was they had a limited timeslot. They should've broke free of that at amazon.

If the grand tour filming is anything like top gear filming, they shoot nearly 1000 hours of film for every 1 hour of finished program. The Africa special was a 2 part special. I don't know about watching 2000 hours of the same top gear special. Source: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8mGn5SQpqqWoHU.html @ 2:50

"James has wanted to come in Jezza for a long time" - Jeremy Clarkson 2013

We seen the footage too you know

How popular is your show? Some random man in the middle of Uganda walked up to my car and called me Captain Slow.

@@gaylecoleman4308 You literally copied one of the top comments word for word.

@@gaylecoleman4308 huge yikes

Well at least he's consistent. So you always know in advance how enthusiastic he will be for a drag race.

*IS

@@user-tc7nd8hk2s Was*

It was

But all we know is... It’s called « Top Gear »

This is Paaawwwuuussss the greatest KAHR in the wurld.

Are you from Jezza haha?

@@part9952 Haha... unfortunately not. But, besides Clarkson, I know a couple of people from there.

@@paulothewriter Really? Wow cool!

@@paulothewriter haha that's really cool! this is my favorite Top Gear special.

Definitely one of the best TG specials they’ve done.

Lol, if you say so...

He handled it surprisingly smoothly

He would have been practised ;) everyone shakes the same way so you quickly learn

Clarkson is honestly pretty cool, he seems to genuinely enjoy to travel and see the world so I think he actually played that off quite well.

1:42 you know things are drastic when May starts getting mischievous

The Christ the King supermarket is CLOSED

*cum.

Issa bit gei isn't it?

That was hilarious. Jeremy is comedy

@@phreak761 hahahahahahaahahhahahhaha

And you sure live up to his average audience not even wondering why an 8 year old would casually be sipping a beer

@@team3383 Well I won't deny that I'm an average yet dedicated viewer. A grown man can have a child's mentality you know, and sip on beer, as a grown man-child. Makes sense to me. They even joke about it on the show the whole time.

@@thebassplayer8506 Exactly wot I mean. Taking absolutely NO responsibility. A "man-child". LOL. You are almost as bad as them, making that up as you go.

My 8 year old was smarter, better mannered and better educated, than Clarkson

@@marksmit8112 then why are you here watching if you think he's so terrible?

Next Tuesday: Land Rover Defender.

I'm Ugandan, and I loved this episode. They should have included a lot of these clips.

Tyler woodring the Subaru had a really bad break down near the end, it was entertaining seeing may and clarkson being fake happy that Hammond managed to fix it

@@gianlucabaldacchino2782 after they put it through hell and back and dragged the other two cars along it gave up in a repairable way, that's stipp pretty subaru of it.

@@AlbinoFuzWolf yep gotta love Subaru

Subaru's boxer engine has major problems with blowing head gaskets... just ask Scotty Kilmer!

@@kevinlacoursiere7075 he'll just scream at you to buy an old corolla

Underrated comment. This should be at top!

Underrated

Purely because it's more people oriented, makes for a good video, perhaps even a good show like an 'Extra bits' every now and then - but it's not the kind of thing that holds prime time viewer attention It's good yes, but it's not for *that* audience - Good choice to cut it, as sad as it is that it was a good choice

We haven't... they're on The Grand Tour

KZfaq channel Drive Tribe, thank me later.

@@Maesterful Except there's no Grand Tour.

@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 Series 4 has just been confirmed though!

@@Maesterful Well maybe, but truth be told they lost their mojo I think. The BBC format of them on those green car seats and with Stig and people standing around is still the best one.

When 350 Million People Watch A TV Show It’s Hard Not To Get Recognised.

Not only are they recognized. They are called out by their nicknames!

@@gwcrispi This. That means that they actually watched the show, and aren't famous like Kanye and Kim. People know them through news, not so much for the things they created. Like nicknames or old songs.

@@MrHeroicDemon exactly, and where are the 350 million people watching our U.S. made shows. They broadcasted Top Gear through out Europe and the world, but just in Europe it is like Broadcasting through several New York Cities. I never hear about Seinfeld being aired in Korea, or Germany and dubbed, though I am sure it is. And I will out right say, it was the biggest show willing to pay newsworthy money to keep it. But i never heard other countries talk about it. Maybe it is a pre-Internet thing. But earlier Top Gear was too. Broadband was on the start, so there was no streaming from other countries.

What they represent is the decline of our nation.

That is some wonderful insight there.

I think thay actually do a pretty good job of that with the special as broadcast, actually. For all everyone whine about them being 'racist' they actually always show the host country s beautiful and a desirable place to visit, and the people as humans and interesting characters. They cut out a lot of content because of time constraints, and there is an emphasis on keeping the 'entertaining' content first of all, so a lot of the local flavor is lost. They must film fifty times what ever gets on to TV, at least. Five hundred times more likely. I for one would be glad to watch longer specials with more shots of the locals, more details about the culture and lifestyle, transportation, and more of the guys interacting with the populace. But thats what TV is all about, time constraints and catering to the people with the lowest attention spans. Really, a Top Gear travel show could have been great. it wouldnt be that much different from the specials already are, just a minor difference in emphasis, a bit more time spent talking about and visiting places and less time spent driving and being silly. Though keep some driving. Some of the best shots are of people along the roads and in villages, and of the crazy transport solutions on the roads. I think TGT was even better at this. My very favorite shot I think was taken from the camera car as it rolled through a small third world village, I forget the nation. Eastern Europe maybe? And there is one shot of this little kid jogging up the street behind the camera car as it slowly rolls down the road, staring at the camera crew in the back with huge wide eyes, totally mesmorized with this fantastic thing he is seeing in his little town. That kid will probably remember the day the men came through town with these fantastic cameras poking out te back of their fancy Land Cruiser for the rest of his life. I watched it like six time, seriously.

Haha you think way too far, but I like your positivity mate.

If only you could hear Jeremy's actual racist thoughts. Like a bull in a china shop.

I’ve been to Uganda and honestly it was amazing 🇺🇬

To be fair, that thing BARELY made it. Oliver was pretty much the way he bought it by the end.

It probably wasn't road worthy anymore

A wishbone that's barely holding together is slightly more serious than some damp electronics.

You guys know the term "Restoration" right ?! Besides Olive itself was already having issue before the journey began

@@rep100Luxio It wasn't really struggling before the start. It ran and drove well. I would actually argue it is the most bulletproof car that Richard has ever driven on a special, since it only broke down when he got careless with it. But I don't think restoration is a problem for Hammond. I mean, just a few weeks ago he announced he was going to be doing some sort of restoration on Oliver. But I don't think he connected with the Subaru quite as much as he did with Oliver. At the very outset of the special, Oliver had character to him and felt like a living creature, between its tiny size, the hilarious horn, and its will to go anywhere despite being so old. The Subaru didn't really have that effect on him I think, at least because everyone expects the newish Subaru to easily survive most things thrown at it. But no one expects the same of a 60 year old Opel. The Subaru was never as much of a underdog as Oliver was. It's probably why Richard decided to name one of them and not the other.

But why? What's going on there?

Yh half the time lol

“James has wanted to come in Jezza for a long time”

I was seriously watching Hammond knowing exactly where that was going...and yes it did

😀😀😀😀😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I died

Well he is

@@eliaslundstedt5607 lmao

IronHam

Oirn bloke

Probably the reason for that clip not being included in the final cut

This is good genius idea, nd you r stupid also

It’s always amazing what people do with limited resources. You should see the electronics market in Lagos Nigeria, there’s no Apple store, they learned to work on phones themselves often apprenticing and they just do everything it’s true entrepreneurship

Sorry but these replies arent that bright. The issue is that chemicals used when creating tires are actually quite harsh, very harsh infact. Sure its good in an emergency, but for long time use it can cause some nasty infections on your feet. Not to mention after years of being driving, theres a lot of crap thats stuck to the wheel thats now on your feet. Youre safer off getting old rubber tubes for it

@@duckmeat4674 you do realize the inside of the tire is not that dirty, since it's the inside of the tire. I'd say our feet are more dirty than the inside of a tire

Addidas and good year does it, although you pay for the whole tyre

lol 😂

That special sucked. It was too long, too diluted and full of recycled jokes and scenes from older episodes and butch cassidy. That and the Burma episodes are the worst. Bolivia and Botswana were the best.

Burma trip sure was depressing at times but its not the worst but Argentina trip was definitely an excuse for them to wreck and abandoned nice cars

@@rep100Luxio yeah. . .an excuse

@@bluejay4214 altho i still blame those butthurt Argentinians but TG shouldnt abandoned those cars outside the border

666kingdrummer, They are there with a TV crew, it’s not just the three idiots in the traffic

Dont say that you sound stupid, english is the second language in east africa

That's pretty much all that TGT will be, hopefully if things ever get settled down and free travel is possible. Assuming if what Jeremy said to close S3 is still the plan.

You somehow got the joke but didn't. Impressive.
