The Mozambique Special is the second special episode of the Amazon Prime motoring series The Grand Tour. It aired as the eleventh and final episode of the show's second series and is entitled Feed the world. It premiered on the 16th of February, 2018.
Originally, the episode was believed to the second series special. However, Clarkson later revealed in an EW interview that the special was actually still to be filmed, and was based in Colombia. He referred to their episode in Mozambique as a "mini-special". Unlike The Grand Tour's Namibia Special from the first series, the Mozambique Special aired as one episode.
Overview[]
In the episode, the presenters must work together to transport fish from the capital of Mozambique, Maputo to its malnourished interior of Bingo. After each choosing a different method of transportation with different methods of utilising the fish, the presenters each attempt to get their fish inland to Bingo.

Production[]
The episode was filmed in March 2017, intending for the item to be a regular episode of the show.
During filming, Hammond fell off his motorcycle and was knocked unconscious. His injuries, however, were not life-threatening. He addressed his accident in a post to DriveTribe.
While Clarkson and Hammond found May first splashing himself with his fish tank very funny, what was hilarious to them was the immediate realization that May had set himself up to be splashed for the entire trip every time he braked.
