James May's comments about working in the iconic trio of Clarkson, Hammond and himself have resurfaced after news of the three essentially breaking up broke this week.

Best known for their time on BBC motoring show Top Gear, and later Prime Video's The Grand Tour, it has been reported that the group have dissolved their production company.

It's a truly sad day for British TV, as arguably the most iconic trio this century has seen are coming to end, as one last episode of The Grand Tour is set to come to our screens sometime soon.

Clarkson, Hammond and May have been goofing around with hilarious challenges involving budget vehicles and thrashing supercars around race tracks since 2003.

After Clarkson was sacked by the BBC in 2015, the trio migrated to Amazon Prime Video, where they have continued to make entertaining car-related content for us all.

The group are known for their chemistry and banter with one another, with many people watching their shows despite not having an interest in cars.

Nowadays, each of the presenters are doing their own things to great success, though Clarkson's Farm by far and away takes the cake as the big success story from the three.

But according to the MailOnline, the presenters have dissolved their production company with producer Andy Wilman, W Chump and Sons, on 11 June.

Their application was made to Companies House, the official governmental body that approves startups and new business ventures, as well as the dissolution of companies.

So, this all means that the final pending Grand Tour episode will likely be the last time we see the famous trio together.

In an interview with UNILAD, May had previously revealed why he thinks the chapter on working with Clarkson and Hammond has closed for good.

The 61-year-old explained: "I think people would only really like us doing cars, despite what some people say - ‘Oh, I think you should all go off and do cooking or you should all go and do a podcast about nothing’.

“But I don’t think so, I think we should let it lie, what we did.”

However, he did leave the door cracked open for a reunion in the future, adding: "I'm sure there will be something, but it won't be as big as [The Grand Tour] and I don’t need it to be. I’ve done that."

So I guess we might see them together in the distant future but as far as a regular programme done by the three goes, it looks like they're done, 21 years later.
