Dara O Briain and Ed Byrne hit the road for a journey across South-East Asia.
If you caught their banter-filled American trip in 2015, you’ll know that Dara O Briain and Ed Byrne know how to dish up a good travelogue.
This week the Irish comics, who are close friends, return for a three-part follow-up on BBC2. Dara and Ed’s Road to Mandalay sees the pair tackling a 3000-mile trip from Malaysia through Thailand to the newly democratised Myanmar (formerly Burma). Along the way they explore the history and culture of the three very different countries and try their hand at some intriguing local pastimes.

How long did it take to film the 3000 mile trip?
