"For James, Italy has always felt like a country that doesn’t seem to make sense," Prime Video teases. "On the one hand, Italy is often regarded to be on the cutting edge – of science, fashion, and engineering, yet its economic infrastructure has fallen on very hard times. Somehow, though, Italy and the Italians always prevail."
Where is James May: Our Man in Italy filmed?
The upcoming season of James May's travel show will see him film in almost every region of Italy from "the sun-kissed shores of Sicily to the snow-capped mountains of the Alps".
May is also set to visit Ferrari's Fiorano test track in Maranello, a cheese bank in Montese, the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni on Lake Como and a luthier in Cremona as well as Parma and Turin, where he meets Italian footballer Giorgio Chiellini.
