'The Grand Tour' second series to launch on December 8

Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday announced that the second series of "The Grand Tour" will launch on the platform on December 8.

The new episodes featuring Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May will be released weekly, exclusively for Prime members. Alongside the announcement of the launch date, a new trailer has been released, a statement said.

Beginning with a heart-stopping, vertigo-inducing moment, the three presenters are reintroduced to fans as they daringly slide down the side of a snowy mountain whilst singer Paul McCartney's "Live and let die" plays out.

The new trailer showcases a mix of incredible cars and other 'vehicles' alongside stunning scenery and a dose of mud and dirt.

For series two, the trio have filmed across five continents, visiting more places than ever before including Croatia, Mozambique, Dubai, Spain, Switzerland, Colorado and New York with their studio tent being given a permanent home in the Cotswolds.
