I'm still a good man's daughter
Let me in if I break
And be quiet if I shatter

I watch a lot of travel documentaries, and I like Portillo, I think he's an excellent presenter. Can't stand most of the others, who think they are entitled to just show us what they like, and spend a good deal of the time pontificating about unrelated shite.

Clive Myrie's Italy journey was also excellent.

The Stanley Tucci thing about Italy was very good as well.

Is he, he might struggle for content if it's food related.

Portillo's outfits are almost always a wonder...I wonder who the hell dressed him that day.
