Back in November 2004 I wrote about how much I loved the documentary “Long Way Round” starring actor Ewan MacGregor and his buddy Charlie Boorman as they traveled by motorbike from London to NY. It was a six-part miniseries that I absolutely adored and it has since become one of my favorite documentary/reality series (I even thought about buying it on DVD but have resisted).
So I’m thrilled that this Sunday will be the start of “Long Way Down” in which Ewan and Charlie once again hop on their bikes and this time ride from Scotland to South Africa. It’s another six-parter, and will surely be just as enjoyable and riveting as the first one a few years ago. Sadly, instead of airing on Bravo like the first edition, this one is airing on Fox Reality Channel – a much more limited audience.
At any rate, here’s the teaser clip:
