James May opens up on ‘pretty long days’ filming Grand Tour in Madagascar: ‘It’s a shame’

Following on from their Top Gear tradition, May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond’s latest globe-trotting adventure saw the trio hunting for pirate treasure in Madagascar.

Due to producer Andy Wilman contracting COVID-19 near the start of the pandemic, it’s now been over a year since the last episode, Seamen, took the team on a voyage through Vietnam.

Despite the new specials’ idyllic backdrops, the trio of motorists didn’t have much downtime to do any exploring of their own.

In their latest trek, the presenters were back in cars to navigate the treacherous main roads of the East African island.
