    Anyone watch it?

    Host Richard Ayoade and a celebrity visit some of the most popular cities around the world to explore the famous tourist attractions. They spend 48 in a city and you get to see what’s on offer and sometimes prices for admission to various attractions.

    I’ve seen a few. At the moment, I am watching Richard and Greg Davies in Moscow. Interesting and I’d love to visit one day

    It's a good show, they visit some interesting places! Glad they do an episode on Ljubjana- Slovenia is the best hidden gem I've ever visited.

    The best travel show imo though is Parts Unknown with Anthony Bourdain (RIP) which is on Netflix. Technically it's about food, but there's nobody who captures places and cultures as well as he did, in my book.

    Last night we watched Dubai.. £8,000 for a suite .. ridiculous. Yes it was a bath with an aquarium setting, but way over priced

    I've tried watching but there's something about Richard that I find very punchable - his face I think

    He's not funny at all :(

    God I can’t stand him either. He’s really irritating and not remotely funny. A shame as this programme sounds decent bar him.

    For me it's his smugness, as if everything he says has an underlying in-joke that he is achingly aware of but the audience isn't. I've got a word for him, but won't use it here. ;)

    I agree , he’s so not funny and comes across as rude at times. I just enjoy the sights :)

    So the women don't find him funny...makes sense.
