You're Stuck In A Metaphor

As Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon's trip nears its end, the pair's competitive behaviour reaches its height.

After some gentle gate vaulting, Steve's bravado leads to him being marooned on stepping stones in the middle of a river, with only one probable outcome.

Rob's only retort, "You're stuck in a metaphor".

Featuring: Rob Brydon (Rob) & Steve Coogan (Steve).

Why did you do it in Ian McKellen's voice?

On the final morning of their trip, Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon visit the ruins of Bolton Abbey.

Rob recites Wordsworth's famous poem to his appreciative audience of one, but Steve questions the validity of Sir Ian McKellen as Rob's voice of choice.

Featuring: Rob Brydon (Rob) & Steve Coogan (Steve).
