I would like Amazon to make, Tea Time with James May, which is a 1 and half hour episode of James drinking tea with crumpets and him talking about whatever topic he had that day.

Yes

He has essentially done this already. Lots of James content on the internet. "Unpimp My Ride" was great.

@4eyesinthecorner399 Год назад

I genuinely find him so interesting and the nicest of the trio so it really irritates me when people make fun of him getting passionate about things or cutting him off because he’s actually knowledgeable about something and pretty decent at explaining it too.

@pyrotechnick420 Год назад

Out of all three, James is the one who I identify with the most, so naturally I don't like it when people make fun of him.

May is a true gentleman, have always been a fan but this interview is gold! Hearing him speak about his hippie moment because of the air being a 30min bike ride away really resonated. Absolute legend!

@l3uIletpoints Год назад

James May is a legend. He knows full well that people want to hear what he has to say. "Should the bonger come on halfway into the carwash or at the end?" Is a question not meant to have an answer. I will watch anything that he presents because he talks to me, the viewer, like no other presenter has ever mastered and make no mistake, he mastered his craft - presentation - better than anyone else ever has... apart from maybe, Clarkson. They're different sure, but they both worked very hard at perfecting the craft of presenting their programming to me and you, as individuals. And they're brilliant. I do like James May more though. Not because I think he's more authentic, they both are, I just think that James enjoys it more.

@SardiPax Год назад

Ross at his most irritating. James trying to tell us things that are genuinely interesting and Ross just interrupting and jibbering about not wanting to be in a lift with him. I'd happily listen to what James has to say over Ross.

He had to man, it's a quick interview for views and show.

@RD1R Год назад

@@anomalyp8584 nahhhh Ross said the "oxygen bubble" around a u2 at 70k ft. He didn't even realize that James corrected him with "air bubble." After Ross said he always wanted to go "the moon and space and loves that sorta thing." Dunning Kruger hard at work. This is a bad interview because James May is SO much better educated and informed it's almost impossible to have any non-topical conversation. Ross is useless.

@anomalyp8584 Год назад

@@RD1R Ross is there to entertain the viewer...the vast majority of which isn't educated well enough to understand what James would be on about. It's a frustration for you and me both...but that's the disadvantage of dealing with the average.The show is to give James some publicity, not to have an interesting discussion about physics or the meaning of life.

I was 9 when Challenger went up. I had stayed home from school with a cold and watched it with my dad. I still recall quite a bit of detail, even to the point of remembering what the room/bed/tv looked like and the brief conversation right after. I asked him if that actually just happened? He didn't answer me right away but was very somber and said something to the effect of how big a deal it was and how it will be something I remember years from now. He was right, it's one of my earliest, strongest memories.
