It IS horrendous, but I admit that it suits him. I just can't imagine James looking sharply dressed, somehow.

That second pic is adorkable, too.

I think even sharply dressed, he'd still look scruffy! I have that problem too - maybe it's something to do with the flufffy/scruffy, uncontrollable hair. Also next to Stephen Fry, anyone is going to look less than dapper. ;)

Adorkable is the right word! :D

I've seen him at those award shows with Jeremy and Richard. He definitely looks scruffy. I'm not sure if it was him or Jeremy who lost the tie.

Ah yes! I remember those.

And why does this comment make me think that the tie was lost in some hilarious sexual hijinx in which one of them was almost left tied to a toilet with his pants down, until one of the others took pity and released him before any photos were taken? (And when I say 'hilarious sexual hijinx' I do, of course, mean sex. In the toilets during an award ceremony sex. In which bow ties are used as restraints.) Is there something wrong with my brain?

If you want to, I'm up for it. But I am equally happy to postpone if you like. I have job apps to write and have been thoroughly distracted by the internet for the entire morning.

Ah, me too! Well, part of it was spent sleeping and eating and listening to the Margaret Throsby interview. But there's still 15 mins of morning to go! It's not all lost!!

I think if I get on a roll with writing, I'll want to keep going. But we'll see whether or not that actually happens. I might be over it by then. How about we reconvene at some point in the afternoon and see where we're both at then?

Sounds like a plan to me!

it makes sense that when James May dresses up he goes hobo chic.

Are elbow patches hobo-chic??! :o

That picture is beautiful, just beautiful. As is the jacket. That's some style right there.

Yes, yes it is. I'm glad I'm not alone in this. :)

I LOVE HIS JACKET. PATCHES! PATCHES, I SAY!

You'd better not be being sarcastic. I have genuine love for that jacket, the patches in particular. It's true.

No sarcasm! They're just SO STRIPEY, and not at all matchy with the plaid on his shirt, which is an entirely different plaid from the one in the picture below. JAMES IS ADORABLE IN HIS CLUELESSNESS I WANT TO RUFFLE HIM.

The shirts, I admit, are pretty terrible. I love that he quite clearly dresses himself, not just when going to these things, but also whenever he's on TV. He wears the same clothes again, he wears what he wants and he looks like a dork and he doesn't care! There's something about it that is so refreshing! :D

Though I do wonder if a woman could ever get away with this kind of thing? I guess she'd be in the magazines on those "what's hot what's not"/outfit rating pages and she'd get slammed there in a way that I'm sure James never gets. *le sigh*
