James May Supports Hardworking Delivery Witches

Former Top Gear presenter has framed image from Hayao Miyazaki's Kiki's Delivery Service

Followers of the British TV presenter James May will know that his interests go well beyond raving about fast cars with Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear and The Grand Tour. At the beginning of 2020, he released James May: Our Man in Japan, a six-part documentary series on Amazon Prime in which May toured the length of the country, including, reportedly, learning how to voice an anime dog while he was in Tokyo.

New evidence, though, suggests he may be more of an anime cat person. Viewers have spotted that in a recent Good Morning Britain TV interview on July 22, filmed in his home, May was standing in front of a framed image of Kiki and Tombo from Hayao Miyazaki's Kiki's Delivery Service. The interview is currently available here. It is possible that it is an original cel from the film, as Kiki was made in 1989, before the studio turned to digital production.
