Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour review - one of them has a formidable mind, but which?

In a country where so much of society is still bisected along class lines, many have a very particular image of a clever person - and it’s roughly Stephen Fry. A grand-seeming Oxbridge-educated man with a posh accent and an interest in art and opera, who can recite passages of classic literature. Rob Rinder, the criminal barrister, broadcaster and host of Judge Rinder, fits well into this mould and loves all things “high culture” and intellectual pursuits. He is, as his co-host Rylan Clark says, “one of the cleverest blokes I know”. Meanwhile, Rinder says Clark “doesn’t know his arts from his elbow”. However, over the course of the three episodes of Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour, Clark emerges as the brilliant mind, with levels of intelligence, wit and profundity that may have been overlooked because there remains a perception of what a clever person is like.

What a wonderful series, I loved it, hope they do a few more of other countries.

Like the concept and they are good at it but less of the gay thing. We get it but overkill at times.
