About this author

James May is a British television presenter and award-winning journalist.

May is best known as co-presenter of the motoring programme Top Gear alongside Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond. He also writes a weekly column for The Daily Telegraph's motoring section. On Top Gear, his nickname is "Captain Slow", owing to his 'careful' driving style. He has, however, carried out some exceptionally high-speed driving (including taking a Bugatti Veyron to its top speed).

“Oh, cock!”
James May

“Truth is, I always do that. I visit a different city and I think 'where is this street where the fun, the swordfighting, the brawling, the seduction and the drinking takes place?' And I have a look at it, then I get a bit miserable and I end up in a proper pub because I just prefer it.”

“Now, thats a pie!”
