Giant Jeremy Clarkson head spotted being transported around America as part of Amazon stunt for The Grand Tour

Amazon have teased that James May, 53, and Richard Hammond, 46, versions are coming

A GIANT sculpture of Jeremy Clarkson’s head has been spotted on the back of a lorry in Washington DC.

The eight foot artwork of The Grand Tour host, 56, is part of an Amazon stunt, who’ve teased James May, 53, and Richard Hammond, 46, versions are coming.

Their destination is unclear.

But let’s hope they fare better than Sir Chris Hoy, 40.

The Olympian is the latest victim of the show’s celebrity gag, which kills off its weekly guests before they can make it into the studio tent.

BBC bosses banned Jeremy Clarkson from grilling star guests on The Grand Tour, claiming it would be ripping off Top Gear so any famous faces on the show are being “killed off” before he or co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May get the chance to interview them.

Yesterday Richard Hammond, 46, ditched fellow presenters Jeremy Clarkson and James May by jumping on the £6,500 flight back after shooting around Loch Ness.

It meant that Jeremy, 56, had to catch a British Airways flight from Inverness Airport while James, 53, was on budget airline Easyjet.

The trio had been in the Scottish Highlands filming for the second season of their hit Amazon car show.

They have already filmed in their large tent in Whitby, Yorkshire, Cape Town, South Africa and kicked off the series in the Californian desert.

Both Richard and James got their own back on Jeremy for years of abuse by blowing up his Oxfordshire house in the last show after he lost a bet in the first episode.

Reps for Amazon declined to comment.
