AN IDIOT ABROAD 2 (SKY 1)
8 x 48 mins
Genre-bending travel documentary series that became a global hit.
Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant send Karl Pilkington around the world to experience ‘Bucket List’ adventures. It’s a dream journey for most, but Pilkington has reservations.
As a producer on the series, Stuart compiled the famous Bucket List and liaised with fixers around the world to design the series. He took Karl and the crew to Thailand, self-shooting some of the more intimate moments with Karl.
“Nothing is funnier than Karl in a corner, being poked by a stick. I am that stick.”
– Ricky Gervais –
“At times, it’s nearly impossible not to fall apart laughing”
– The Hollywood Reporter –
“A smash hit!”
– The Metro –
