Intended as a companion to the TV series, this give you everything you saw there plus some extra bits. I think you would have to already be a fan of Karl Pilkington and his style to enjoy this book. I don't think someone could just pick this up and read it without knowing of Karl or the TV show. There are other comments on here that say the jokes/humour got a bit samey after a while. I would agree with that to some extent. Once you "get" Karl, you can predict that what kind of scenarios he is likely to hate. However, this was a fun read and made me laugh. This book was given to me by an English friend of mine. It was really good and also really ridiculous. The book is a kind of companion/behind the scenes look at the making of the Sky show An Idiot Abroad, and I would definitely recommend watching the show as well as reading the book.  Really fun read, especially if you're travelling.
Do You like book An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries Of Karl Pilkington (2011)?
Not much more information then the TV series.
Really made me giggle!
