Stupid Legal Reasons Mean That Clarkson & Co Are Banned From Saying These Things On The Grand Tour

It seems the BBC are looking for any opportunity to sue The Grand Tour if Clarkson takes the slightest morsel from his previous Top Gear adventures.

As if there wasn’t enough drama surrounding the break-up with the BBC, The Grand Tour cannot feature a written lap time board, a Stig or even refer to the motor news section as ‘The News’. There can be no Top Gear test track and there has even been a debate over whether James May can use his ‘cock’ catchphrase.

The legal scenario was made even more ridiculous when the trio went on a shoot to Namibia. As they had described the African scenery as ‘beautiful’ in past Top Gear episodes, Clarkson has had to resort to saying “For legal reasons, this scenery is shit”.
