James May couldn’t bear the stigma of being The Stig.
I’ll be perfectly honest here: when the producer outlined the idea to me, I thought he was overdoing it. I thought the conceit would be exposed by its own improbability.
He was, in effect, offering me two jobs on his new motoring programme. It was like being called Ronnie and invited to appear in The Two Ronnies but without another Ronnie.
The main job involved driving around a track at extremely high speed, since that was what I was good at, but – and this is where it became tricky – I would do this anonymously, and only ever appear in a racing suit and helmet. I’d be called Stig.
Meanwhile, to disguis my identity, I’d also appear occasionally on the programme as myself, where I would cultivate an air of indifference to speed and feign an inability to remember which way racing circuits went.
It was a very clever strategy. In time, the nickname Captain Slow would “emerge” and I would begin to espouse the doctrine of “Christian Motoring”, which was handed to me in a pub one night, printed on rice paper and sealed in a plain envelope, and later eaten.
Read the rest here or have a look in the gallery for the article scan.
Also come back later today for some pictures from yesterday’s book signing

So since I am gone on vacation lots has happend. First off all the stig thing I think is just very stupid. I would never ever give up the best job in the world for a book.
Ok with that gone James has been on TV and Radio a few times in the last few days. Still looking up stuff for you but for now here is a list
- BBC radio 2 – Simon Mayo (1:04:00)
- BBC Breakfast Show – I have no link yet but there is a LQ video on Youtube
- Radio 5 Live – Richard Bacon (UK only and video)
I also uploaded the scan the scan from James his column from last Saturday in the gallery. Right now I am scanning in the interview with James that was in the same newspaper. in the gallery now.
