The latest episode of The Grand Tour, which was partly filmed in a Kenilworth pub, is now available to watch on Amazon Prime.

The programme's second lockdown special, 'Carnage A Trois', saw presenters Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May head to the Old Bakery on High Street.

Filmed in April 2021, the episode was released on Amazon Prime in December last year.

The episode sees the three presenters stop in Warwickshire during a road trip from Wales to Dover as they take a look at French car culture.

In Kenilworth the trio were filmed discussing French philosophy and the style of French car reviews.

The Old Bakery was even decorated with French flags for the shoot.

Hammond, Clarkson and May also visited Shires Retail Park in Leamington Spa during the filming, causing a traffic jam as they demonstrated the 'French way' to use a roundabout.

One local was recorded getting out of his car to tell Hammond to "get a f****** move on!"

The embedded video at the top of the page shows a short glimpse of the trio's time in Warwickshire.

The Old Bakery declined to comment.
