The former ‘Top Gear’ co-host, 60, is returning for a third series of ‘James May: Our Man In…’, and a second run of his ‘Oh Cook!’ show.
His latest ‘Our Man In’ series will see him travel to India and is set for broadcast early next year, and James said about the show comebacks: “I’ve been to India before, and it’s mesmerising. I can’t wait to go back for Series Three of ‘Our Man In…’.
“And for ‘Oh Cook!’ fans, it’s also the perfect opportunity to perfect my daal.”
James will start his latest jaunt for ‘Our Man In…’ in Mumbai, and he’ll travel 3,000 miles, including through Udaipur to experience the Holi festival, before heading to Rajasthan.
His trek will also take in the “golden triangle” of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur before he follows the Ganges east to the holy city of Varanasi.
With ‘Oh Cook!’ he will once again show how his battle to go from kitchen novice to gourmet cook.
James’ former ‘Top Gear’ co-host Jeremy, 62, faced fury in December for saying he “hated” Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, so much he dreamed about the 41-year-old being pelted with excrement as she was paraded through the streets.
Prime Video was later reported to have parted ways with the presenter, but they have never confirmed that and a third season of ‘Clarkson’s Farm’ is still to air on the streamer.
