After hearing Amazon UK’s announcement on signing former Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, we reached out to the internet giant to clarify which countries will get the new car show.
Here’s what press spokesman Hannah Pawlby told us:
“As well as those places where Amazon Prime is already, Amazon will do deals to make sure it is distributed around the world so people will be able to watch it wherever they are.”
Evidently, more details about how Amazon will distribute the show outside their Prime websites, which right now, include the USA, Germany, the UK, Japan, France, Italy and Canada, (from those countries, only Germany, the UK, and the US offer Instant Video with Prime Membership), will surface before the show airs in 2016.
One last thing we wanted to mention is that, while Amazon hasn’t named the show yet, it did use the hashtag #Drive2Prime on its social media postings, which could mean something or nothing at all.
