This week, we’re diving deep with MrJamesMay. The Grand Tour icon is in search of la dolce vita on his latest series which sees him tackle Italy, from the tip of the heel to the top of the boot. | The Big Question
The Grand Tour icon is in search of– or, rather, the sweet life – on his latest series which sees him tackle Italy, from the tip of the heel to the top of the boot.
Here we unpack his grand tour around Italy, why people call him Mr May and his profound distaste for brunch. A part of me almost regrets mentioning La Dolce Vita at the beginning. The Italians don’t really talk about it, to them it’s something that happened in a film that’s now, you know, still very interesting, but it’s quite outdated.
I think, a sort of deep-rooted quality of the Italians is that they don’t really like being governed too much. Which you can also say about the French, I suppose, and you can’t say it enough about us because we’re a bit too willing to be governed.I think that the Italians, they, you know, they want to be Sicilian, and they want to be Roman, and they want to be Tuscan, and it does actually mean something in Italy. It’s not just flim flam – it’s only been a country for 170 years or something.
It’s nice being on your own because compared with doing, say a Grant Tour special, there are more hours of television in this series, and it’s all mine. I didn’t have to sort of give up a load of space to the other two to talk about whatever it is they’re talking about. It’s just me.I’ve got loads to say, don’t worry.
