Off-beat Holiday Show, Ch4

[darkchild81]

Me again... I wanted to know the name of the presenters or title of this backpacker adventurers' show in the 1990s. Did Dan McGrath ever do something like this? I can't find any references on the Internet and it's driving me crazy!

The show was presented by two guys, one a bit nerdy and always made to do unexpected things like run up and down Incan temples or camp out at night while the other got it easy. I have a feeling that the word "Globe" or "Global" was in the title, but I might be completely wrong.

Thanks guys!

The only decent travel / backpacking show C4 has ever done was Lonely Planet...especially when Ian Wright was presenting... The series later became Globe Trekker so you almost got it.

The theme tune was also good
