Filming for the Grand Tour in Johannesburg, South Africa is set to film under a giant tent on July 17th, 2016, depriving many jealous fans all over the world with the opportunity to see the old Top Gear trio, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May back in a live setting. However, there’s been some snags with the Boys’ trip to South Africa as their carrier British Airways ran into some flight delays. On cue, Clarkson complained:
Dear @British_Airways When you delay a flight by 12 hours – 12 – do you have any idea how much inconvenience that causes?

Shortly after, he tweets for help asking if someone has a plane they can use. Given his star power, we wouldn’t be surprised if a wealthy do-gooder sacrifices a plane to get the old automotive presenters on their way:
People of South Africa. We still want to do our first show there, But, has anyone got a plane?

The airline then replied to Clarkson… (Wow, talk about customer service here. We guess you just have to be extremely popular for an airline to go out of their way to respond to a customer complaint):
@JeremyClarkson We’re so sorry, Jeremy, we understand the stress it causes. We can see our colleagues at the airport are helping you. ^Ash

@JeremyClarkson We’re glad to hear you’re on your way, Jeremy. We hope we can dazzle you so much you forget about the delay! ^Ashleigh

The gents should now be on their way to record the first Grand Tour live tent session. If you’re not there, the Boys will be also be filming in the United States, and we’re going to try our best to get tickets OR DIE TRYING.
