About the show

James May is a man on a mission to prove why traditional, old fashioned toys are still relevant today as he pushes them to the limit in spectacular, supersize challenges.

James May wants to get kids out of their bedrooms and away from their video games, he wants to drag parents off their backsides and get them all playing together again.

Using some of the world's best loved toys, James May puts generations of families at the heart of some ludicrously ambitious adventures and extraordinary feats of engineering that fire the imagination to remind us of the joys of doing things together. James's adventure sees him, his team and the general public tackling some mind-bogglingly spectacular challenges.
