In his latest show on Discovery Plus, James May showcases his knack for coming up with clever solutions to everyday problems. The former Top Gear presenter, who is often associated with being a typical "man's man," recently spoke out about the misconception that certain "manly qualities" are boring.
Titled "James May & The Dull Men's Club," the show follows James as he finds the extraordinary in the ordinary by constructing DIY gadgets inspired by the Dull Men's Club Facebook groups. When asked if the show was an admission that he himself is dull, James laughed it off and explained that it's all meant to be ironic. He believes that the idea of men being dull because they enjoy tinkering in their workshops or painting is outdated and shouldn't be used to belittle them.
James believes that some of these basic "manly qualities" are actually under threat and hopes to prove that they are not at all dull. He even went as far as to say that the show is a way to show those who think otherwise. His strong belief in this message is what drives him to continue creating these shows.
His new show comes after his popular travel series "James May: Our Man In..." was cancelled after three seasons. The show saw James traveling to different countries and partaking in local activities. He had visited Japan, Italy, and India, with the latter airing in January this year. However, in October, James revealed that the show had come to an end as the streaming service did not want to commission any more seasons.
But James is not one to sit around and do nothing. He has been keeping himself busy with his other hobbies, such as opening his own pub with his Grand Tour co-star, Jeremy Clarkson. The duo, who are known to be good friends, apparently have a friendly competition going on between their respective pubs. Jeremy's pub, The Farmer's Dog, has even banned James and other celebrities from entering.
Despite this, James is not bothered and is focused on his new show. He believes that at this stage in his life, he is more drawn towards arts and crafts, music, and paintings. He even joked that his new show, "James May & The Dull Men's Club," might have more of his preferred activities.
