James May has revealed his hopes of reuniting with Richard Hammond and Jeremy Clarkson, just months after The Grand Tour ended.

The Amazon Prime Video show came to an end earlier this year, with the trio saying an emotional goodbye after 22 years of working together.

All three have their own projects going on, with Clarkson busy at his Diddly Squat Farm and May's new show, James May and The Dull Men's Club.

Meanwhile, Hammond has been busy running The Smallest Cog, a car restoration service based in Hereford.

Despite all this, May has said he hopes it's not the end for the trio, although he has said their next reunion will be more relaxed.

“I’ve spoken to them a few times and I suspect we’ll go out for a beer somewhere," he told Times Radio.

“Just because we can, not because we have to come up with some gags, plan a road trip or choose some cars, but for the hell of it. It’d be quite interesting.

May has also previously spoken about his lack of emotion when the trio parted ways earlier this year.

"Nothing will ever be as big as Top Gear and The Grand Tour were, so I'm not full of woe and regret," he said.

"It was time to stop. We are all getting quite old. One or two of us are on the brink of death, and I hope we left on a high note with people wanting more because that's what you're supposed to do in show business."

It's something Clarkson has also spoken about previously, explaining he was surprisingly unemotional about the end of the show, as was May.

He told PA: "I’m not saying this in a derogatory way by any means but James has the emotions of a stone.

“He just doesn’t do emotions, so there were no tears from him. Hammond, yes.

“I was surprisingly unemotional in a weird way because I can see James and Hammond any time I want to, they’re only a phone call away, and I’m sure we will.

“And I’ve done enough of the travel, I was worn out by it.

"I'm 100% convinced I would have been a lot more emotional without the farm show."

Meanwhile, when asked in the past about why the trio was coming to an end, Hammond candidly told Heart Radio: “Because we've been doing it for 136 years.”
