James May has revealed he and drinking buddy Oz Clarke are already planning another series, expanding on their pub-crawling adventures.

The Top Gear star and the wine expert have already toured the world, learning about wine and the home-produced alcoholic drinks of Britain - but now they want to expand their explorations.

James said: "We have a number of very radical, world-changing ideas based on drink but broadening out into more philosophical and intellectual areas. Pies for example. Pies."

The TV presenter confessed he was surprised but delighted with the success of his shows, after their latest series Oz And James Drink To Britain picked up a Tric award this week.

He said: "We've done three Oz And James [shows] - when we did the first one, we never entirely believed it would work.

"Somebody once said to me a programme about two men drinking was a bit like going to be pub but only looking through the window, rather than going in, which I sort of understand.

"But I started off really not knowing what I was talking about, and after three series with Oz - who is an expert- I left being unable to speak."
