What a fantastic series this has been. I've really enjoyed Billy's enthusiasm, the scenery and the fantastic characters he met along the way. Shame its all over now Crying or Very sad

Sadly I only saw the last programme Sad I do love going over to Canada to see relations and I always have a great time over there, and yes the scenery is lovely. Worth the jetlag!!!

The series has been fantastic. Did anyone see him fishing in the lake a few weeks back? It reminded me of the fish credit card adverts.

Great Series, really enjoyed it. I thought it was much better than Stephen Frys America trip probably down to Billys character. Smile

Are shows like this a dying breed in that it was prsented by someone who has done something in the past , hence has experience of life and has something interesting to say rather than the TV presenters coming through now who are just 'celebrities' for being on the TV and know very little ?
