You can tell that James is a consummate professional as in his attention to detail he has made sure he put the same creases into his shirt 2 weeks later. Both he and his continuity crew need medals.
I love seeing James, self made millionaire, nothing to prove, just having fun, doing experiments. He always delivers. I once spent 40, enjoyable, minutes watching him repair a Hornby train. I have no interest in Hornby trains. He is becoming a bit of an enigma. Great bloke. Utter respect.
James also rates (and plays) the music of JSBach. I heard him raving about a Bach keyboard (harpsichord) fugue on Radio 4 and was very impressed. Bach sounds better when being played whilst drinking James May gin (hint-hint!)
I mean, he's only 60 and looks 75. His and Jeremy both look 10 years older than they are. Richard has ages tremendously well. It's not smoking or drinking that does that.
@@sloht4061 I mean, I feel like Jeremy has been looking like 75 for two decades now. So he didn't really "age". Also I'm pretty sure Hammond is just as much if not more of an alcoholic than the other two.
@@sloht4061 I really don't think he looks that old. If you go past the near-white hair he doesn't look at all like he's in his 70s. It's just that he has greyed quickly.
Overdriven audio again at the end of the video at the 9:47 mark. It sounds like the levels were not adjusted properly for that section, was worse than the earlier overdriven audio at 7:56 Was definitely peaking well past where it should have on the audio meter.
The one and only time I drank gin I was given waaaay too much round a mates house at about 7.30 pm before going to the weekly "alternative disco" at the Thames Poly cellar bar in Woolwich. I walked in and walked straight back out again after realising I couldn't see straight, spoke some gibberish to a policeman who asked if I was ok, got the bus back home and went straight to bed at about 8.30pm.
Dear lovely person editing this video, i would like to request that in future, when you are choosing your sound levels, you keep them relatively consistent and not blow my ears out when i am wearing headphones. Thank you for your time and hard work. Best regards, M
Absolutely happy you have such a sincere team there.... Love seeing you try new dishes! *I love making Gin smoothies :) to bring for after skiing, stays cold in your car.
Since you've asked what next, i'll pitch it again. It would be a uniquely entertaining video to watch either the couple or all three of you play any driving in video games. With all the peripherals and bells and whistles. Who better to compare it to the real life chaos you can cause.
Why is the volume difference so high between the parts where the music is at the forefront, and when it is in the background while the guys are talking? I keep having to turn up the volume when they're talking, then have to turn it down to half strength again whenever it's just music (like at the very end, for example), because it's way too loud. Like, "Sweet bejesus! *scrambles in panic to lower the volume*" type of loud.
It's due to the mixer not actually using a phone to play back the final RUclips video. They typically use desktop speakers or headphones, and mix for playback levels on those.
I was going to immediately point out that James is wearing same outfit. I then realized that James obviously has a clothing schedule rotating clothes on a weekly basis to ensure sartorial consistency. Very professional and frankly a perfect example to us normal chaps.
Not even a "full" english. No sausage, no beans, no black pudding. Not even an american hash brown, not english chips! If anything, this should be a "half" english!
The audio for the video was a bit overdone at the 7:56 second mark. That should be adjusted down a bit for the music in that section, too thumpy, sounded like it was over-driven.
Not turning this into a US vs Canada vs Scotland vs the R UK but... Bacon. Back is decent, streaky is decent so... In Scotland we have Ayrshire middle bacon. It is like back bacon rasher with the streaky bit on its tail. The best bacon for a sandwich or a breakf... The best. Ask your butcher for it - try it once.
yass, I once had a cut like that straight from my local, Vermont butcher, now other store bought bacon looks sad, so I drown it in maple syrup. *You inspired me to support that butcher, worth the drive to the border.
Most of the bacon sold here in Australia is middle (back and streaky combined). You can get get the back bacon here, but quite hard to find streaky on its own.
The vinegar trick doesn't work when poaching eggs. You don't need it and it can just ruin the flavor of the egg if you use too much. It's an old wives tale. I cooked breakfast for 6 years and did perfect poached eggs with just boiling water. The trick is to stir the water before dropping the egg. That's all.
Love how growing up Gin was an old ladies drink. Now everyone is making it and drinking it lol, Gotta admit I am a big fan of Gin myself especially gin long drinks.
@Der Frosch-Prinz Aus Bayern Right? One could argue that the bug-out bunker videos were just subtle ads for products like Lurpack with how often they got brought up, and that doesn't even support May (unless he has shares in that company as well).
James doesn’t have my financial interest in either this channel or DriveTribe anymore. I assume that promoting his own stuff is the way of paying him to be on the channel.
That was pretty funny. 😂 When they started talking about using gin in the cure I thought "hmmm interesting", then when they started adding gin to everything else, especially the eggs I didn't think it would pan out too well. I love gin, but in my martinis or gin & tonics, not too sure about foods. Thanks for the links, I'm going to have to try some of your gin sometime.
I do realize it’s English breakfast but it’s a missed opertunity for the mustard gin. Would go very well with the sugar on the bacon and english breakfast needs black pudding/blood sausage ofc and that combines very nicely with mustard.
You can tell that James is a consummate professional as in his attention to detail he has made sure he put the same creases into his shirt 2 weeks later. Both he and his continuity crew need medals.
James would like us to think that right after filming the first part he took off the shirt and put it back on then for part 2. Wink Wink Nod Nod
@@donise8406 I wouldn't put it past him lol
🤣
Professional. What? Idiot ..I'll agree . His whole persona ...are red flags .
I miss the simple videos of James cooking. Could he make us a classic full-English in the bunker?
To busy shilling his Gin and pub.
He’s moved on to bigger and better things
Could-he-make-a-Full-English-in-the-bunker? Who-knows? Only-time-will-tell.
@@TheRivieraKid A shill promotes someone else’s product. While you have your dictionary open, though, turn a few pages towards the next letter.
You miss it? He's done literally 2 videos (including this one) since the last bunker cooking video.
I love how James discourages sales of his own gin by constantly reminding us of how expensive it is
It’s called , reserve psychology.

@@14rs2 Yes I did. I didn't have my glasses on. 😂😂

James May is one of the few that just looks better and better with age. I hope I'm that lucky.

Yeah, my dad went gray in his late 40’s, its not unusual.
He looked even better after the 2-week jump cut
It is important to also publish negative results, such as these - thanks for releasing the video!
I appreciate both the willingness to experiment and the willingness to publish the results of a culinary experiment that was unsuccessful.
I can’t believe James let's a breakfast be made without "Lurpak butter since 1901" 😅😅😊
Lurpak *spreadable butter.
@@Circuitssmith Yes! My bad
Plenty of it. Flood the cowling.
Spreadable butter is poison so there's one thing
I thought it was 1903?
Music during b-roll is way too loud. But lovely to see James as always!
You know you have a perfect chef when they can get an egg that perfect
That egg was perfect. That runny yoke...😋
7:58, “Cutlery Wallah”, lol, only a true aficionado of Britain’s imperial past would get that. I shall use it myself now. Love it.
I actually enjoyed this video. Very nice editing. Also, its cool to see experiments, even failed ones. Makes things feel a bit more real.
Please bring back the Foodtribe channel with James, Lucy and the other members of the team!
The chef is quickly becoming the world's leading authority on cooking with gin.
Nice to see James and his son making videos together.
James May is married but he hasn't got any children...he also says he's quite happy about NOT being a father.
@Elisabeth Mahama No. it isn't his son. He hasn't got any children.
The original poster was referencing the chef’s hair length.
@@fucking_smooth RUclips is not the place for subtlety.....
@@patriciahadley2374 he's not even married lol - hes been with his partner for 20+ years but is not married
James is looking more and more like that sweet English grandmother I never had.
😂
Oh granny
2 weeks later, James is still wearing the same shirt. I don't know why I expected any different.
Could be for continuity lol
Also seems quite a lot of gin disappeared in those "two weeks"!
I miss the cooking bunker!
How could he ruin a full English Breakfast when it didn't have the ingridients of a Full English Breakfast in the first place
Infuse your juniper berries with your Gin brand,then add them to you dry brine mix.That will produce the results you want.
Your chef is excellent. Best Sunday roast and fish and chips ever at your pub 👍👍
Love to watch the failures just as much as the successes.
Would love to see Hammond try that poached egg...
Hammond eggs
@@HankAaronJoseph19 yes.
he'd probably have a terrible accident.
@@alexr9028 His position as "The crashy one?" was taken by James and Flintoff...

Great to see honesty fellas
James is a legend yes he’s getting older yes he shakes a bit but that’s all of us hope he stays on video for ever,

Is it me, or are there two places where the music needs "headphone warning!" applied?
Absolutely happy you have such a sincere team there....
Love seeing you try new dishes!
*I love making Gin smoothies :) to bring for after skiing, stays cold in your car.
James, next time you should try your hand at the Reuben sandwich
I bet he could pull together a really nice Reuben
Reugin!
That is not a 'full English'. Where is the black pudding, the sausage and the beans?
No toast either
Can’t go a week without watching one of these masterpieces!! James, you’re the man. 💪
The real question is “what does Lucy Brown think of the gin-bacon?” 🤔
This is fantastic.
Seeing the James poaching an egg without using his antique egg coddler
Music is loud or the voices should be compressed louder.

What next? How about ...James Gin Ice Cream
James puts up the most boring stuff yet we all still watch right to the end ,love this man
I didn't realize I had watched the whole thing until I reached the end. Quality stuff.
James, May I say... You're brilliant, but now I need a posh breakfast.
James is looking more like the Big Yin, every day.
I was going to immediately point out that James is wearing same outfit. I then realized that James obviously has a clothing schedule rotating clothes on a weekly basis to ensure sartorial consistency. Very professional and frankly a perfect example to us normal chaps.
Let me guess before watching. Its another gin advertisement
Yes, I'll have the James May hair of the dog full English, cheers!
Worth a shot! Ahhhhhh.....I'll see myself out.
I wonder if James May has his own brand of gin..
On What's Next next time:
James May Ruins The Sausage Sandwich
Definitely need to redo this with American Mustard Gin 👍😆
Not even a "full" english. No sausage, no beans, no black pudding. Not even an american hash brown, not english chips! If anything, this should be a "half" english!
Your chef is epic! I like these videos where James and his chef experiment with gin. I don't drink alcohol, but all you create looks very delicious!
James is looking well & healthy, I really like these what next videos, I especially like the bunker ones with James, Lucy & Rachel.
The sound effects and background music are very distracting, makes it hard to hear what they're saying at times.
The audio for the video was a bit overdone at the 7:56 second mark. That should be adjusted down a bit for the music in that section, too thumpy, sounded like it was over-driven.
Gandolf May looks powerful.
A true gentleman
Thank you, James May, for not letting us wait for 2 weeks. To show what not to do at The Royal Oak, just of the A30. 😊
I cant get your gin in Australia
I wish i could poach eggs like that :(
James I suggest a cake soaked in gin with gin ice cream.
Peat smoked food would be the next bold step into the night^_^
Been watching the Man Lab series. He ages like GIN.
Three words in and I'm wheezing.
Finaly i have been waiting so long for next video! 😍
this series always reminds me of a less intense episode of chopped, where the only ingredient to incorporate is gin
Half English breakfast 😂 missing sausages, beans, hash browns, toast or fried bread
Honesty level 9000
I’m surprised with the foodie skills between them that they haven’t opened a “top gear” restaurant?

I'm an American and now I really want to try and cure my own bacon in bourbon.
Nobody needs gin for breakfast anyway. Unless they're off to face a firing squad afterwards.
Love the daggerfall sound effects
Maybe keep the gin infused stuff to more delicate stuff like fish.
But my surprise option- Gin flavoured ice cream . .
Sold!! sounds like the perfect hangover cure
Respect honesty.
The only way to destroy Bacon is to not eat it and let it spoil.
Simple works the best.
I'm half surprised Jim hasn't tried making gin bread yet.
That sounds doable
Loving these videos. How does James look better with age?!
Thankfully he manages

Strange considering the gin and tonic swilling men who all went to africa and such in the late 1800s
'Can we introduce gin to (the full English breakfast)?'
Sounds like you have introduced it to your bloodstream already, James! 😃
Missed a chance there should be “ Link in the descript-gin”
I miss when this channel wasn't just an ad for gin.
At least it's a comedic ad for gin and includes James May.

"Can we add gin to a full English breakfast?" It's like he's never heard of breakfast cocktails.
I miss the James May mail time segment, and also dearly miss Man Lab. I felt that was entirely too short lived.
I liked the Re-Assembler series best. There is no way in god's green earth that I would buy that gin.

Basically a huge advert for James gin! But you know his pub and his gin so why the fk not...!!!
A Canadian breakfast CANNOT be beaten by anyone! Not even America! A Canadian breakfast is an unforgettable experience 😋
I’ll have to give one a try sometime!
Not with all that maple syrup.
Not quite a 'full', but I couldn't figure the Navy Strength on Beans!
I purchased this gin. It is absolutely incredible. The neighbors still talk about. Really
, it's the best gin in the world. Buy it
I agree. Received my two bottles a week ago. Drinking an American Ramstud tonic as I type!
Hammond would not approve of those poached eggs despite loving both Gin and Poached eggs🤣
I do realize it’s English breakfast but it’s a missed opertunity for the mustard gin. Would go very well with the sugar on the bacon and english breakfast needs black pudding/blood sausage ofc and that combines very nicely with mustard.

When you remember the A38 just in case you’re passing a pub that sometimes serves gin meals. 👍
