I'll have to watch for that - his Toy Story shows are pretty good. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_May's_Toy_Stories

We watched all the wine tours with May and Oz (forgot what it was called). Very educational, learned a lot about how wine and beer are produced. Entertaining, too, as Oz is a wine snob and May thought all the fuss about wine was pretty ridiculous.

I'm guessing that's their equivalent of an erector set?

Do they even still sell erector sets here? God I loved mine as a kid.

Oz and James Drink to Britain. I loved that series... Actually, I guess there were a couple of series on only wine, but I still haven't seen those. Drink to Britain was the all-manner-of-beverage-but-mostly-beer thing with the camper and Rolls...

I watched one of the wine shows in Northern California and I thought James May came off as a completely dickish snob, not about wine but about having to mix with the commoners.
