Last seen exploring his anger over on BBC2, he is now getting under the skin of three of the greatest cities on Earth for ITV. Jones travels to New York, London and Paris to find out what gives each its unique identity.

First stop is the Big Apple, where he  spends a typical 24 hours meeting the people who live there – from a man whose job it is to hoist American flags across the city, to two veteran cleaners who spruce up the windows of 30-storey buildings.

He also gets his hands dirty with the New York sanitation department and soon realises why they are known as New York’s Strongest.
