The Criterion Channel has a collection of the various “trips” with Steven Coogan and Rob Brydon.
Many years ago, I saw the original trip, and I had heard that there were others (Italy, Spain, and Greece).
I had not realized that they were originally released as TV shows, and on this viewing I watched them all that way: all four of the trips spread out over 6 episodes each.
Imitations of Michael Caine; specific references to British comics or national life; and middle-age man stuff with some occasional poignancy.
I enjoyed Rob Brydon’s character more on this viewing because a few months ago I found out about the wonderful world of Would I Lie to You.
