Ian Wright Live: Shows Ep 3: Central Asia

Our loveable yet intrepid, open-minded yet fiercely opinionated host Ian Wright presents the second episode of a unique studio show in which he shares his experiences of travelling to the furthest flung places of the globe. So what are the featured countries in this show? Well, here are some clues: a cut of mutton, a bit of silk and an old Soviet spy camera. Yes, you've guessed it - Central Asia!

After sharing travelling tales with the audience, Ian turns to his exploration of curious travel toys; today he looks at the lemon-powered alarm clock', a must-have for all those clock watchers among you. Ian turns to his bunch of travelling companions - the types we all recognise: Posh, Tristan, German and Yob - for some of their opinions on hotels.

Ian's best piece of advice for a smooth trip to foreign climes is to bone up on some of the local customs - something which he has often failed to do as the clips of his travels prove. Sometimes it's not the far-flung places that have the most ridiculous rules - the US has more than its fair share of them; it is, for example, illegal in Atlanta, Georgia to tie your giraffe to a lamppost. Then he reminds us of the grossest thing he's had to eat around the world; a sheep's eyeball in Mongolia. As if that isn't enough he launches into 'Cooking with Ian', inviting two members of the audience to sample his speciality of the night: boiled sheep's eyeballs.

To round off our adventure-packed show Ian throws it open to the audience and answers their questions on just what it's like to have the best job in the world, not bad if his answers are anything to go by!
