His new blockbuster show on Amazon Prime has been greeted with acclaim from both the critics and public alike.

But it seems that the success of The Grand Tour may have gone to Jeremy Clarkson's head, as the presenter had his face beamed onto the world's tallest building for the show's finale.

Filming the end of series one in Dubai over the weekend, the world-famous landmark played a part in the spectacular curtain call - with the building being used as a giant billboard.

Got a big head? It seems the success of The Grand Tour may have gone to Jeremy Clarkson's head, as the presenter had his face beamed onto the world's tallest building for its finale

Having already taken in the likes of Los Angeles, Johannesburg and even Whitby, it seems the show was determined to have a spectacular blow-out for its finale. 

Travelling to Dubair with the now famous Grand Tour tent, Jeremy. 56, and his co-stars, Richard Hammond and Jamey May couldn't resist leaving their mark on Dubai.

As night set in, the trio decided to give the first series of their block-buster motoring show an epic send-off.

Making the most of the city's record-holding landmark, which has seen the likes of Hollywood hardman Tom Cruise scaling it, the trio projected Jeremy's face onto the building.

Lighting up the 829.8 metre building with the journalist's grinning face, it seemed as though the TV favourite may have been given a bit of an ego-boos after the show's triumphant debut in November.

But the closing scene wasn't all about Jeremy, as the building also proudly displayed the show's logo on it's face as a huge cluster of fireworks exploded.

The shot was captured by James May and The Grand Tour team, who quickly took to Twitter to share the image with fans on Sunday.

James, 53, showed off his wry sense of humour, captioning the image: 'Our Grand Tour space rocket taking off last night.'

The closing spectacular should come as no surprise to fans of the former Top Gear trio, who have made their latest venture an action-packed, money-burning affair. 

So far the programme has delighted fans with its action-packed content, which has included huge stunts and some of the world's most expensive cars.

Episode one, The Holy Trinity, saw the trio race each other in a Ferrari La Ferrari, McLaren P1 and a Porsche 918.

The second installment of the series then saw them take on a death-defying mission (a pastiche of Tom Cruise's The Edge Of Tomorrow), which saw them race around a city with machine guns in an Audi.
