Jeesus! one of my customers is the absolute spitting image double of the third photo, I kid you not as soon as I seen it I thought it was her. How am I going to keep a straight face next time I see her? Do I tell her? She has a great sense of humour and would probably see the funny side but its a risky one.
Awaiting the results of this with baited breath

Just watched the Vietnam (boats) one, the Mozambique (fish) one, the Madagascar (treasure) one and the mongolia (desert) one.

Good banter, good comedy and great camerawork and cinematography.

Slightly uncomfortable was the fish one, felt it was a bit exploitative of the local poverty. You don’t take the piss out of people for being poor, then proceed to waste food in front of them.

An awful lot of people exercise no objectivity when watching tv (as this thread shows), so this will also be popular with loads of adults just because one of the Holy Trinity is in it.

Let's be honest here, that show isn't aimed at Emeritus professors and MENSA members...

If you head over to the Amazon Prime thread virtually everyone who has watched it thinks it is awful.

Oh, it is terrible. Out of some strange need that should be discussed with a professional, I watched it all. I came to the conclusion it was a victim of COVID editing and that's why it fails to land on any target audience. It is too juvenile/condescending to appeal to adults and yet some of the humor is not appropriate for kids.

the reviews and ratings are mediocre at best, and usually Amazon shill these.

S1 not good. S2 gets better as it goes on. S3 is very good.

You have a point. Someone who undoubtedly has a fairly stressful job at his age who doesn't live a particularly healthy lifestyle looks tired. Well call me surprised! laugh
