'Top Gear' Is Back! Presenters Sign New Deal with Amazon Prime UK

Top Gear fans who are also Amazon Prime members have a reason to celebrate: Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May have signed a deal with Amazon to star in a new car show which will be available on Amazon Prime next year.

According to Amazon UK's website, Clarkson, Hammond, and May are "reuniting to create an all-new car show, exclusively for Amazon Prime. The show will be produced by the trio's long time executive producer Andy Wilman. The first show will go into production shortly and arrive exclusively on Amazon Prime in 2016." The unnamed show has already been commissioned for three seasons, reports The Independent.

When asked for his thoughts about the new deal, Hammond displayed a characteristically witty response: "Amazon? Oh yes. I have already been there. I got bitten by a bullet ant," reports The Guardian. Clarkson commented "I feel like I've climbed out of a biplane and into a spaceship," and May followed up the sentiment by quipping "We have become part of the new age of smart TV. Ironic, isn't it?"

BBC's new version of Top Gear will be hosted by radio and TV personality Chris Evans, who has signed a three-year deal with the broadcasting corporation, BBC reported on its website back in June.

Jeremy Clarkson was fired by the BBC at the end of March for physically attacking and verbally assaulting show producer Oisin Tymon. Since then, presenters James May and Richard Hammond decided to follow their mate and left the show themselves. Now that the show is back, what are your reactions?
