Wednesday 8th October on Channel 5 sees the start of a new TV Series presented by Paul Merton on INDIA.
From what I have seen of the trailers, I think some of it was filmed in Paleom beach whilst we were then in February this year.
They were filming a Bollywood type dance routine. I didn't see anything of Paul Merton though, although I could be mistaken.
Still looks like a good show to catch for all those who love ( and hate) India.

Although he didn't visit Goa, there were plenty of mad taxi drivers, tuc tucs and trucks. Charlie even bought a tuc tuc and got it shipped back to the UK. I would have loved to see him trying to drive it in Calangute, instead of a quiet border town on Indian/ Nepal border . Episode 3 and 4 is in India.
Gives a good insight into Indian Train Journeys, something you would never get if you went on the "Palace on wheels"

Saw Charlie Boormans prog last night and the other week featuring India, anyone who missed it try and get the re-run, it's good TV for a change.
cant wait to see it, i loved his china one...

Bring back Michael Palin .
In India, he referred to the place as one of beauty and amazement and spoke of how he found it hard to understand the way of life that is so different from the West.
oh blow I missed it last night!!

Just watching Paul Merton, it's brilliant, must get back to the Shiva Festival
Unbelievable
i actually sky+'d it, and i'm so glad i did.
because i've never laughed so much, when he came off that plane.
watched it over and over again, with tears streaming down my face.
very interesting, and looking forward to next weeks.
PMSL at the plane in that blokes backgarden.

However did anyone notice that although Paul went to the school of etiquitte and learned not to use his left hand when he first met Rashire (his guide) they shook hands using their left hands

Just booked flights to Gujarat for the festival!
brilliant, cant wait for next one
