I’m off to the National TV Awards at the O2 Arena in London on 25th January. An Idiot Abroad 2 has been nominated. Please vote for it at

Ricky, Steve and Karl can’t make it to the ceremony so I’m going instead along with the directors. Its a Black Tie event and Jan. 25th is also Burns Night (that’s Robert Burns, renowned Scottish poet, lefty, and ladies’man) so I think I shall air my knees and wear my dress kilt.The Awards ceremony is being broadcast live on ITV1, hosted by Dermot O’Leary.

Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington, Stephen Merchant

Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington and Stephen Merchant

An Idiot Abroad 2 starts its North American airing at 10pm on The Science Channel, 21st January. Its been screened in UK already with record ratings and has been nominated for a number of awards.
Its a very funny comedy travel series in which Karl Pilkington is sent round the world by his two friends Ricky and Stephen in order to broaden his mind.This series is “The Bucket List” or “Things to do before you Die”. As cinematographer I and the team followed Karl to Alaska, Route 66 (starting in Santa Monica), Japan, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Vanuatu, South Africa, Uganda, Russia and China. Many adventures were had and Karl’s take on them is off the wall and hilarious. You will occasionally see the camera shaking uncontrollably!

An Idiot Abroad series 2 crew - Malekula Volcano

I returned to shoot the 2nd season of the Sky 1 series An Idiot Abroad earlier this year – a phenomenally successful comedy travel series with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. This shot shows a motley group of people standing on the rim of a live volcano in Vanuatu  just after dawn one Saturday…the way you do.

An Idiot Abroad 2 has just finished screening in the UK with record ratings and is due out in North America early next year.
