Captain Slow was always my favorite Top Gear presenter.
Same. If you haven't already, be sure to watch both his travel and cooking shows. Both great.
Also his show Toy stories was really cool.
He would pick a classic toy and take it to an extreme. Like building a people-sized house out of Lego, entering modeling clay flowers into a gardening contest or making a motorcycle out of Meccano.
He would bring a bunch of people together to make it happen, it was wholesome in a not-lame way. Plus the usual James May antics.
There's also a two parter I've seen posted to YouTube called Big Trouble in Model Britain where he basically interviewed a bunch of people and conpanies surrounding Hornby (a notable British model train manufacturer)
