    So I was in the airport this morning and I saw Francis Brennan filming the new series of Francis Brennan's Grand Tour.

    I may have got in a shot while filming completely by accident of course.

    I shall be watching the first episode to see if I'm in it :-D

    Tempted to report that damn clickbait thread title! I thought you were getting on the flight. You'd be great on that show, amdublin.

    And isn't it great when you run into your Stalkee when you aren't even trying? :D

    Only joking, hope you make it onto the Television now, nice photos.

    Ah yeah :)

    Admittedly, the RTE blurb hasn't got the full title of the show and for some reason they are concentrating on what happened in India, rather than the unforgettable Airport scenes.

    But sure what do they know?!

    http://www.rte.ie/tv/francisbrennansgrandtour/
    Francis has planned a 1000km round trip of India's Golden Triangle - beginning in the capital city Delhi, then onto Agra, home of the majestic Taj Mahal. From there the group travels onto the 'Pink City' of Jaipur, followed by a tiger safari in Ranthambhore National Park.

    With temperatures hitting a record breaking 51 degrees the heat is on for Francis. Can he stay cool as he deals with fistfuls of facts and figures and a jam-packed 24/7 schedule that leaves no room for error? Not to mention the threat of Delhi belly!

    Francis Brennan's Grand Indian Tour is a brand new 6-part series, airing on RTÉ One, beginning Sunday 17 July 2016 at 8.30pm.

    This is great!

    I never thought he would do another one of these type of shows after the last one. He seemed totally peed off with the antics of the tour group, bar one or two anyway.

    Will be watching this.... He is a legend.

    India !



  • Registered Users Posts: 33,749 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    An escorted holiday to India would be great.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,749 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Not surprise they were shocked by the smell, 750 million Indians have no proper sanitation.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Francis getting a rub of the relic ... it would appear to have another meaning than the one I knew until now :eek:

    I am so innocent I had to look up what that meant...

    Josephine is a great character.

    Francis seems to be winging it on the details of the Indian attractions they are visiting.

    I suppose they probably have local guides to assist him.

    I would love to have been there! Love Francis..
    Saw him on Miriam last night and he said he had Dehli belly for 5 days:eek::eek::eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    I couldn't handle that heat


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,749 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    India really needs to invest in sanitation instead of a space program.

    Why would anyone want to go there?


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,749 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Why would anyone want to go there?

    Would love to see the Taj Mahal, but not sure I could stand the heat and being without my western comforts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,719 ✭✭✭jluv


    Some of them don't seem to be enjoying the experience:(
    I must be vigilant in case he's doing another series..would love to be involved:p

    The food would be my reason

    I think they went in March... or May. One of the "M" months anyway. Francis said it on Miriam's show last night.

    The important question has not yet been answered - was amdublin in the airport shots? :)

    Yeah, they flew out on May 12th according to this RTE pitch for contestants, which was also the day amdublin posted her behind the scenes photos

    http://www.rte.ie/tv/audienceparticipation/francisbrennansgrandtour.html
    Francis is raring to go - all he needs now are some holidaymakers to join him!

    2 Hold a valid passport
    3 Are over 18 years old

    We are particularly looking for people who have never travelled outside of Ireland, or have very limited travelling experience. Whatever your special reason, convince us why you should be considered for this adventure!

    The special price for this unique trip including flights, transfers and accommodation on a B&B basis is €700 per person based on 2 people sharing (single room supplement applies). Booking terms and conditions apply.
