The `Idiot Abroad' is back for another globe-trotting adventure, but this time he won't go it alone. After visiting the Seven Wonders and performing activities on a `bucket list', Karl Pilkington has company in the third series - actor Warwick Davis is along for the wild ride, a 5,000-mile journey from Venice to Eastern Europe, India and China as directed by series creator Ricky Gervais. The three-part instalment follows Karl and Warwick as they trace the footsteps of famous explorer Marco Polo, highlighted by Karl's trademark observations about the world and Warwick's varying experiences as a little person in different countries. Says Gervais: Karl once said to me that opposites attract. Warwick Davis is sociable, hardworking and never complains. They should get along fine.
