Travel Man is a series that offers a unique guide to the ultimate 48 hours in a city. Each week, acclaimed actor and film director Richard Ayoade and a celebrity guest visit a different destination with the aim of having a holiday with all the boring bits taken out. The result is a half-hour programme that's an inspiration for viewers to travel and try and get more out of their holiday.
