For those of you who are unfamiliar with it 'Haiku' is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines, the first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables, the lines rarely rhyme, but it is allowable.

What better way to begin the onslaught than with James May, the avuncular arm of The Grand Tour and former Top Gear trident? In James May: Our Man in Japan, the easy-going hero of Amazon Prime Video’s six-part travelogue, now streaming in its entirety, meanders from frozen north to sunny south, admitting that he’s never understood Japan’s enduring mysteries but gamely giving everything a go in the quest for enlightenment.
