That's the recipe. The "new" BBC Top Gear has it nailed. The Grand Tour needs to get back to that format for sure. I feel like the script with Jeremy/Richard/James seems really forced especially in season 2. Goes to show you how much of the original Top Gear greatness should be credited to the writers and directors and not as much to the 3 blokes behind the camera I guess....which is surprising to me.
