He was looking mighty fine in last night's ep, especially in that blue t-shirt. I cannot forgive the spittoon incident though.   ;D |

This is next's weeks baffled wine maker Su Hua Newton, wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-review/56/Newton-Vineyard.htmlJames gets pissed and oz gets cross. Su Hua, treats James like a naughty school boy with these qualifications James didn't have a chance! 'Newton (her Chinese first name is pronounced Sue Wa) is anything but an imbecile, of course. The winemaker at Newton Vineyard on the western slope of Spring Mountain is a professor of education, has a PhD in clinical psychology, is now studying French, and was an activist in London where she grew up in the midst of the Vietnam War, raised by the then secretary-general of UNESCO.' |

Well we know what get's James going! I wonder what he gets like on the 3rd or 4th glass. I suspect very flirty and cheeky!

Thanks BBC press office!
Oz and James head for the world-famous Napa Valley in search of fine wines and the low down on what makes Californian wine cool.
The boys base themselves in the posh area of Calistoga, but unfortunately they are parked up in a desolate car park, bereft of any comforts. After emptying the dreaded black waste tank, they are on the lookout for a good bottle of sparkling wine. They head off to meet Eileen Crane from the Tattinger estate, a winemaker who believes she was born to make bubbles. James, who dislikes champagne, is surprised by how much he likes it.
More bubbles are downed at the Schramsberg estate with another maverick winemaker, Hugh Dennis. The boys are challenged in a game involving sparkling wine bottles with Ramon, a Mexican also known as "the Riddler". They get thrashed.
Oz and James end up in a vast cave, tasting more sparkling wine. It culminates in a big argument about how bubbles affect taste.
In an effort to surprise Oz, James backs out of a wine-tasting session to hire a Mustang Shelby. Both are sick of the slow RV, so now they have a sports car to suit the expensive wine region.
The final destination is to hook up with the intimidating and eccentric Su Hua Newton. She treats Oz and James like naughty schoolboys and, when he is left by himself, James tucks into her wine – incurring the wrath of both Oz and Su Hua.

James "tucking in" to her wine - I wonder how many bottles he gets through. ;D Got to say it, Tattinger is my favourite champagne - sadly I don't get to drink many bottles of it.  |

A friend conveniently came over before it was going to start, so it had to be recorded instead. *anticipation*

Just got round to watching the little clip of James drinking all misery guts wine. Serves her right really. How rude to leave him all alone. |

He drank from a spittoon? What on earth brought that on? Were they very, very drunk or just plain silly? Silly, I think And if anyone can do some screen caps from the bit where James was doing his talk on wine as Oz was whizzing round the track in the go-kart, I would be very grateful  There might be a piccie in there suitable for the 2007 competition Here's one....just before when they were tasting...  Its not the clearest....sorry I am still a novice at this screencapping lark...  |

Is it me, or has James lost weight?
Dunno the blue T makes him look thinner.
