Don't want anyone that's too clever!
Karl Pilkington

After being sent around the world three times by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, radio producer turned celebrity, Karl Pilkington is going it alone for his new series The Moaning of Life. Off the back of the BAFTA nominated travel documentary An Idiot Abroad, the five part documentary will see Karl travelling the world to experience how other cultures face up to life's big issues. Karl joins us on the sofa to chat about The Moaning of Life and how sniffing t-shirts can get you dates!
