Default Oz And James's Big British Adventure
I just got this from BBC Press Office

After two series of sipping at the font of Oz Clarke's wine wisdom, James May can tell his Riesling from his Rioja, identify a Californian Chardonnay at 20 paces and describe the plummy nose of a Shiraz without gritting his teeth.



This time, however, the duo are embarking on a tour of the UK on a quest to find the perfect home-grown tipple, from bitter to lager, cider and whisky.



Oz And James's Big British Adventure (working title) is the third series of the wine show featuring the nation's favourite odd couple Oz Clarke and James May.



James may he think he knows more about beer than Oz but he soon discovers Oz's drinks expertise isn't just confined to wine. Expect plenty of bickering, banter and drinking as Oz and James go on their third road trip together.

Fuckin' awesome. This could completely top the California trip. I wonder what they'll be driving 'round in this time?

Yeah! I really liked the California trip, even though I'm not a wine person, and now that they'll be doing beer... whoop whoop!

It'll be good but I worry about brown beer with twigs in it. It's just not right. Infact, it's all kinds of wrong.

Erm, beer is brown and it only gets twigs in it when you spill it in the pub garden. I'd hate it to be about John Smiths, Skol and Hoffmeister.

But at least you'll get some roughage while you drink.

Looking forward to it. Never liked wine before watching the other 2, but find myself ordering it sometimes now.

Actually, it must be contagious I have a large collection of wine given to me as gifsts and I've never touched the stuff but I'm actually rather curious about it all now I want to wait until I watch the series before I get stuck into the plonk. I imagine I am a bit like James - not knowing a thing about wine.

I can see Oz trying to dissect the flavors of the beer while James quaffs his pint and says "Just drink it, you pillock!"

YES. BEER. AWESOME.

That is all I have to say.

Oh, and what care are they going to drive? I'm hoping it'll be a Triumph TR6 since James is so enamored with them.

If they're doing Britain, then surely Australia's next? unless Oz and James are fed up with each other by the end of the series. Although James is always fed up with Oz anyway. lol
