Following a cycle crash, James May has faced considerable disruption while filming for his new Channel 5 programme, The Great Explorers With James May. The TV presenter was injured in a charity bike ride near Hammersmith Bridge in London, suffering a "bust" wrist which hindered the production of several scenes for the series.

Expressing frustration, the 61 year old described the setback, saying he was left "annoyed" by the accident that significantly slowed down filming. On the platform formerly known as Twitter, May updated his followers by writing: "I'm taking part in a charity bicycle ride today, with the Armonico Consort and me old mate Oz Clarke (OBE). But I'm going in the car, because I bust my wrist in a bicycle accident."

Speaking to The Telegraph, May explained the toll it's taken on him: "At my age, this sort of thing takes much longer to heal." He added, reflecting on his feelings about aging: "I woke up one day and the one thing I never thought would happen had happened: I felt old. It's partly my hair; my baggy face."
