Jeremy Clarkson has admitted that travelling for The Grand Tour has taken it’s toll on his body, in particular his colon.
The presenter revealed that he is just back from three weeks of filming for the show in South Africa and claims that his “colon is ruined” from the meat heavy diet he consumed.
“They grow vegetables there. But they obviously feed them to their animals,” he observed.
He even joked that when someone asked for a vegetarian option they were offered chicken.
“You have steak, lamb and pork for breakfast. Another steak the size of a steamer trunk for lunch and at night, half a cow, served up with two pigs and a mountain of lamb chops,” he wrote in his column for The Sun.
This wasn’t the only challenge he faced on the trip as he and his co-presenters Richard Hammond and James May found themselves stranded after flight delays.
He recently took to social media to tell followers: “BA have messed up our flight home so we are marooned here at a luxury camp in Botswana. With only 40 staff. It’s all about survival now.”
Fans will have to wait until early next year to see the finished product when the team’s African odyssey is released as a feature length special.
In the meantime Jeremy doesn’t appear to be keen on travelling during his downtime.
He expressed his admiration for the new 18,600-seater Sphere in Las Vegas, currently playing host to a series of U2 concerts, saying he was “completely bowled over” but won’t be visiting it anytime soon.

“The only trouble is that to experience this incredible achievement first hand, I’d have to go to Las Vegas. Which, I think I’m right in saying, is the worst place on Earth,” he wrote in his column.
However he offered a solution after hearing that a similar Sphere had been proposed in East London but that residents had objected to the idea.
He offered up his diddly Squat Farm which features in the Prime Video show Clarkson’s Farm.
“I have a really big farm. The Chipping Norton Sphere. It has a ring,” he joked.
