Richard Hammond is bored. That’s not speculation – the former Top Gear co-host admits that much himself. And he’s apparently working on a car-related short film to combat his boredom.

The television presenter affectionately known as the Hamster launched a YouTube channel called Richard Hammond is Bored, uploading two suitably boring videos to the channel just the other day. Then he sent out the following tweet, citing his boredom (alongside popular demand) as the impetus for the new project.


We don’t know exactly what the film will be about, but it’ll apparently be related to cars somehow and looks like it’ll be released on his YouTube channel or somewhere online, so watch this space.
