Clive James's Postcard from...

In the first series (1989), James visited Rio de Janeiro, Chicago and Paris.[6] In the second series (1990) he visited Miami, Florida, meeting Don Johnson and Gloria Estefan, while other episodes brought him to Rome, Shanghai and Los Angeles. In Rome James talked with Vittorio Mussolini [6] and Leonard Bernstein, while in L.A. he met Dudley Moore and Kirstie Alley.[6] The third series (1991) focused on Sydney[7] and London,[8] the two cities with which James was most associated during his life.[9] Whilst in the latter, he talked with Michael Caine, Victoria Wood, Peter Cook and Terence Donovan.[6] The fourth series (1993) brought James to Cairo, where he met Omar Sharif.[10] In the fifth series (1994) he travelled to New York City (where he met Richard Price and Ivana Trump), while the sixth (1995) took him to Bombay[11] and Berlin [12] (where he interviewed German singer Meret Becker). In 1996 James went to Hong Kong (where he met Maggie Cheung, Chris Patten, Lord Lichfield and Kai Bong Chow). In 1998 he went to Las Vegas, the Melbourne Cup, and Mexico City. In the final episode in 1999 he visited Havana.[13]

Not to be confused with the Postcard from… series, James had previously made three city-based documentaries under the Clive James in… title for London Weekend Television.[1] A fourth was made in 1995 by Watchmaker Productions, his first travelogue since moving back to ITV from the BBC.
