The new presenters were announced earlier this year as Prime Video looks to continue the show without the original trio of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May.

The changes come after Clarkson stepped away from The Grand Tour following the conclusion of the previous series.

Earlier this year, Clarkson revealed that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, after discovering the illness during a health check.

Speaking during the latest series of Clarkson's Farm, he told co-stars Charlie Ireland and Kaleb Cooper that doctors had found the cancer in its early stages.

The presenter later confirmed he was in remission after a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test showed no evidence of the disease.

Clarkson also used his diagnosis to encourage others to get checked.

"This is why I have to say to everybody who's reading this, please, please, please go and get checked," he said.

"It's not uncomfortable, it's not undignified, and it's a no-brainer. I did, and that's why I'm sitting here talking to you 11 months down the line."

He also revealed he experienced complications during treatment, which he blamed on restarting medication for previous heart issues.

"That was horrific and it was all my own fault," Clarkson said.

"Two or three weeks after the cancer operation, I thought I'd better put myself back on those blood thinners. Big mistake, huge."

Despite his health issues, Clarkson has continued working and recently confirmed he will return as host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? and spin-off show Millionaire Hot Seat for further episodes.

The presenter originally rose to fame as part of the Top Gear presenting team alongside Richard Hammond and James May, before the trio launched The Grand Tour on Prime Video in 2016.

The new era of The Grand Tour will begin on September 4.
