James May reveals Jeremy Clarkson's ‘fantastic first world problem’ complaint that he'll miss now they don't work together

James May has explained the 'dullest' things he'll miss about his former Top Gear and The Grand Tour colleagues, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond, as he looks forward to his first TV project after the trio's working relationship came to an end.

Clarkson, May, and Hammond have called it a day when it comes to working together, with The Grand Tour: One For The Road being their final hurrah as an iconic trio that have graced our televisions for more than two decades since first appearing together on Top Gear many moons ago.

All going their separate ways, May is set to embark on his first TV programme since his time on The Grand Tour came to a close.

Dubbed James May and The Dull Men's Club, the show will follow the Dull Men's Club Facebook group, which has become one of the internet's safe spaces for people with 'dull' problems.

And importantly, it has become a place where these problems can be fixed, with many of the queries popped in there relating to a mundane hobby or interest they have on the side.

Presenting the show and being an integral part of trying to fix the issues presented to him, May throws himself into the world of the 'dull man' and 'celebrates the extraordinary in the ordinary'.

The first season of the show shows May teaming up with the Facebook club to test unique ideas such as whether a washing machine can be used as a cooker and if you can use a sledgehammer as a nutcracker without obliterating the object in to a hundred tiny pieces.

Speaking to LADbible about the show, we asked May what 'dullest' traits he would miss most about Clarkson and Hammond now that he wont be spending days and weeks on end filming with them.

"I suppose their ranting, their complaints about camping or airline food," May told LADbible.

"I mean, it is actually really mundane stuff. That is probably where they would be at their most annoying, having massive opinions on things that I'm not really very interested in."

On Clarkson in particular, he brought attention to his so-called annoyance at the quality of food on one of the best forms of transport money can buy.

May said: "Jeremy once complained that the airline food was always very bad on business jets.

"And I thought that's a fantastic first world problem."

On what fans of his work can expect if they tune in to his new show, May added: "It's all pretty daft. It's a series of overcomplicated solutions to problems that don't really matter that much.

"But there are there are some quite good bits like the truth about baked beans, there's a new type of desk that forces you to exercise while you're doing your emails. There's a point to it all."

Of the inventions or problems solved that he thinks could make it in the real world, he highlighted the 'deskercise' while also saying a pencil holder that stops you from throwing away pencils when they get too short could really go all the way.

"I wouldn't get involved," May adds, "because every time I go anywhere near a business adventure, it goes wrong.

"I'm just not a natural businessman. It'll probably just be stolen anyway because these things usually are but that's okay, you go down in history as the inventors."

James May and The Dull Men's Club is available to stream on Discovery+ from Tuesday, 5 November.
