With all the talk surrounding the BBC's revamped version of Top Gear, it's worth remembering that the car show's former trio are currently in the process of filming their very own new series for Amazon Prime.

Originally rumoured to be titled Knob Gears (this was dispelled soon after), an official name for the show is yet to be revealed - and going by this new video, it seems an announcement is still a way off.

Poking fun at each other in typically wry fashion, the clip shows Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May sat around having a futile brainstorm of title ideas; they're unable to come up with anything inspired.

If you ask us, producers most likely already have a title locked and loaded but are savvily keeping it under wraps in the hope of building anticipation.

Cameras recently began rolling on the new series in Barbados but production came to a halt after Clarkson got into a 'bit of an accident.'

The trio will reportedly star in three 12-episode seasons of the untitled project with sources claiming each episode will have a budget of £4 million.

The show will begin airing via the streaming service this Autumn.
