    Bargain - it's just a real shame it's lacking any real extras! :(

    Aware that Karl has never seen any of the seven wonders of the world and thinks that they are all “a bit s**t” Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant see it more than appropriate to send ‘the round headed buffoon’ on a journey that will ensure he sees every one of them and hopefully broaden his mind and change his outlook on the world. Or in hope that he will hate every minute of it and moan constantly all for their amusement as well as ours!

    Throughout Karl’s journey of a lifetime he will see what all the fuss is about when he visits the Great Wall of China, Christ the Redeemer in Brazil, Petra in Jordan, Machu Picchu in Peru, Chichen Itza in Mexico, the Taj Mahal in India and the Great Pyramids of Egypt. All the while being monitored every step of his journey by friends Stephen and Ricky in London.

    I haven't seen it. I know Gervais is big to push him - Is this any good?

    Don't think that was deleted as i seen it in the episode.

    Funniest programme i've seen on Sky for a long time though, even now, months later i'm still trying to figure out if Karl is an Idiot or Genius

    We'll just agree to disagree..

    But Scien posted it in the 'An Idiot Abroad' thread while we were all watching and said "they should have left it in". They might have played it in the episode, but definitely wasn't in the episode that aired.

    Anyways, splitting hairs! ;)
