With the exception of the two-part special for the first series, each episode featured studio segments filmed within a makeshift tent lot hosted across various foreign locales - two of these sites were each used for two separate but consecutive episodes. Although the series featured celebrities, most appeared in a minor capacity while others were mentioned or involved a look-alike - these appearances mainly were for a running gag involving them heading to meet the presenters in their tent for an interview, only to "die" in a freak accident.

The Holy Trinity
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May start their brand new car show with hundreds of cars, thousands of people, a fire spitting metal scorpion and a squadron of jets in the California desert, plus three amazing hybrid hypercars and a brilliant BMW.
Operation Desert Stumble
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May pitch their travelling tent in Johannesburg, South Africa from where they introduce their unusual attempts to become special forces soldiers and a test of the Aston Martin Vulcan. Also in this show, James is forced to try something called spinning.
Opera, Arts and Donuts
The travelling tent lands on the quayside in Whitby, England where Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May introduce a modern take on the traditional Italian grand tour featuring an Aston Martin DB11, a Rolls-Royce Dawn and an uninvited guest. Also in this show, Jeremy faces the consequences of a foolish bet and Simon Pegg is the star guest.
Enviro-mental

Happy Finnish Christmas
The Grand Tour tent is in Kakslauttanen, Finland – deep within the Arctic Circle – where Richard and Jeremy compare the Ford Mustang V8 and the Ford Focus RS. The presenters also run through some ideal Christmas gifts for car fans.
The Beach (Buggy) Boys (1)
In the first of two Namibia special shows, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are challenged to complete an epic journey across Namibia in three beach buggies, each built to their personal spec.What starts off as a simple determination to win an argument with their boss turns into an amazing adventure across some of the most incredible desert scenery Africa has to offer.
The Beach (Buggy) Boys (2)
Jeremy, Richard and James continue their battle across Namibia in a quest to prove that beach buggies are brilliant. Having survived the challenges of the desert, the trio must now brace themselves for even greater hardship involving rough roads, camping, rhino conservation and a rather unusual river crossing.
Berks to the Future
The Grand Tour tent pitches up in Stuttgart, Germany from where James May introduces a test of the highly advanced Honda NSX, Jeremy Clarkson tries to invent a new sort of SUV, Richard Hammond creates a machine to protect him from a future apocalypse, and the three hosts attempt to generate electricity from everyday activities.
Dumb Fight at the O.K. Coral
The Grand Tour travelling tent arrives in Nashville, Tennessee from where Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May introduce their attempt to save the world's coral reefs using only a selection of car body shells and some extremely inept boat driving. Also in this show, Jeremy finally indulges his series-long Alfa Romeo obsession with a test of the new, 500 horsepower Giulia Quadrifoglio and AC/DC singer Brian Johnson comes to the tent to try his hand at Celebrity Brain Crash.
Italian Lessons
From the shores of Loch Ness in Scotland, Jeremy, Richard and James introduce their attempts to buy used Maseratis for a bargain price and then use them to tour the drizzle-flecked landscapes of northern France.
[censored] to [censored]
The Grand Tour tent is once again in Loch Ness, Scotland after a monster discovery since the last show. This week, the hosts tour central Europe in a Jaguar F-Pace, a Bentley Bentayga and a Range Rover Autobiography, arguing over which is the best SUV and trying not to giggle at road signs. Also in this show, Jeremy kills preconceptions as he laps the Eboladrome in a Lexus GS F, the hosts examine the point of launch control, and Hollywood legend Tim Burton is invited to play Celebrity Brain Crash.
Past v Future
The Grand Tour tent is in Dubai for the final show of the season in which Jeremy Clarkson pits his old fashioned Volkswagen Golf GTI against James May’s electrically-powered BMW i3, Richard Hammond learns how to drift, James is forced to take part in a weird sport called winching, and the Bugatti Veyron drag races against the Porsche 918 Spyder.
