He makes a living from drinking, and from driving.

...something's not right there...

Dissect the flavor of beer? It only comes in one flavor: drunk.

You should try something other than PBR and Steel Reserve.

worxman02 · April 27th, 2008, 9:59 PM

This is great! I'm so excited to hear them talk about beer, as I'm more into that sort of drink than I am into wine. I need some new material instead of watching repeats.

Cobol74 · April 27th, 2008, 10:11 PM

Hmmmm lets see shall we - Sam Smiths for the win BTW. (no not John Smiths different beer).

/EDIT Someone agree with me. Hell, even the lager is great!

+ YouTube Video

This bloke likes the stuff too.

Their beer is decent, especially when you consider you can get it for less than £2 a pint in central London, and the pubs look like this:

I can't remember where I read this (James May article?), but I think series two was supposed to be Australia... and then Hammond had his accident. The reshuffling of schedules meant Australia was out and they had to find somewhere in the northern hemisphere for summer filming.

mads · May 8th, 2008, 4:31 AM

Yeah I remember that too, pretty sure it was a May article.

lueyyou · May 8th, 2008, 5:14 AM

I want them to come to New Zealand, I might finally be able to meet James May if they do that!

Yeah, nice pint Sovereign in St. Mary's Vaults, Stamford. £1.55. Can't knock that. Apart from back. Every lunchtime

Jmiller · May 14th, 2008, 11:36 PM

I liked the first two I cant wait for the next. I am a little disappointed they did not make it to the Napa Vally since you hear about it so much.

Cobol74 · May 14th, 2008, 11:46 PM

Cittie of Yorke (was a hennekies before Sam Smith took it over) was my regular when I worked in Holborn in the 80's. Wonderful pint in there. Also the Anerley Arms in SE London.

this should be very entertaining

matt2000 · May 15th, 2008, 7:03 PM

Yeah this should be very good. I thought the first two seasons were great, so having James going around his home country getting drunk should be a laugh. I'm pretty sure he'll get a good car too.

aaurora · May 15th, 2008, 10:10 PM

I've finally gotten around to watching series 1 and 2 and oh my god, it's one of my favourite things to watch. It's such a crack up. James is truly a funny bloke and I just laugh and laugh at Oz and the way that Oz looks at James and their comments about each other. Excellent series, and it's even put James at the top of my TG3 list.

MijetMan · May 25th, 2008, 4:04 PM

car wise, i say get a Morgan.
not your new aeromax or aero 8
a +4, convertable, made of wood
or a triumph stag

whodunnit · June 4th, 2008, 1:16 AM
