Karl Pilkington-An Idiot Abroad Sky1HD 9pm

I loved his comment about the elephant in the road.
"They're like 4x4's. You don't need an animal THAT big !" :D
I think this programme is just fantastic !
I know he went to China and tried a bit of Kung Fu, but I would love him to go to Japan and try some traditional Shotokan style Karate !
 
I'm really enjoying this program, lots of laugh out loud moments...The ''on-suit shed''? :D

I don't think Karl is an idiot at all, in fact I find myself thinking ''he actually has a point there'' quite alot. :o I love how this blokes mind works!

I'm sure some of it is put on for comedy value but so what? It's funny!
 
SounRAB like you've pretty much got it to me.

He's a "typical little-englander" who doesn't understand different cultures and has no desire to. He has no concept of diplomacy - he speaks his mind - or as he puts it "I just say whats in me head".

In other worRAB - he's the last guy in the world that should be making a travel programme.

Ricky's "biggest practical joke".

I love it.:D
 
It's heavily exaggerated. I'd take it as like Grumpy Old Men go on holiday. It's a chance to moan at things that you just "don't get" even though the rest of the world either do get it or just except it.
 
I have to ask this question. As much as I'd like to watch this show, The Ricky Gervais Show is forcing me not to. The only reason being is that I cannot see why Ricky received credit, let alone just his name in the show's title, when most of it consisted off Karl rambling whilst Ricky and Stephen laughed at him and basically called him a bellend. Judging by the adverts, it seems to be a similar thing, except Karl is finally the priority.

The question is, why do Ricky and Stephen have to be there? As mentioned, it seems like all they do is laugh at him. Why not leave the viewers to do that? Why does it seem necessary that Karl's presence neeRAB to be assisted by them two? Surely, I'm missing something... (inb4 some Gervais addict saying 'yeh, a sense of humuor lol')
 
I think that is just him.... i don't think he's putting it on, you can't really write what he says on a piece of paper, i think its just him. Old grumpy grumps :p
 
That last scene before the break was just like watching Homer Simpson. A guy just sat there hitting himself on the head with a metal bar :D
 
this show is so funny,some of karls sayings make amazing quotes

listening to the podcasts he didn't swear once so hearing him do it all the time is slightly strange for me,great show though

i was thinking of going india a few years ago..not sure now:D
