Television

Christmas 2005 saw James in his very own BBC2 special James May’s Top Toys, re-living his childhood: playing with machine guns, blowing up “Action Man” and recreating model train history……The show was a great success with a call for more solo projects.

James has also done extensive broadcast work and been a regular radio and TV presenter, including Breakfast TV, BBC Radio 2, The Boat Show, ITV1, as well as branching into the “world of music” as co-host  on BBC2’s Top of the Pops.

A freelance writer for many years, having contributed to Car Magazine, The Scotsman, Country Life, One, the Daily Express and various technology and travel titles, today James is a regular contributor and columnist for Top Gear Magazine, a weekly columnist  for The Daily Telegraph and a regular contributor to Conde Nast Traveller

James has a keen interest in cars that are either very posh or very basic and has a passion for motorbikes.
