Comedian pals Dara Ó Briain and Ed Byrne are on their travels again this Thursday on RTÉ One for a new three part series and this time they are on The Road to Mandalay.
The duo take to the road to explore South East Asia, travelling over 3000 miles from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, through Thailand and on to Myanmar, as they forge their own epic route to the historic city of Mandalay.
Dara & Ed’s Road To Mandalay on Thursday at 10.15pm on RTÉ One.

this is why I don’t pay my TV license
it doesn’t explain your halitosis though
The law is the law no?
Watch it on BBC then..it’s on that too…
“Comedian Dara Ó Briain and pal Ed Byrne……”
Ooh, Ed Byrned
…would Ed be one of the gas Byrnes from Waterford?
There appears to be an endless supply of programmes featuring millionaire comedians enjoying holidays the rest of us could only dream of – all expenses paid. They, and Palin, and Bryden and Coogan, can eff off. YES, I AM bitter :-D
The Trip was fantastic, this probably isn’t.
It’s probably slightly more entertaining than Sheik Yahbouti and Joxer off to magaluf for a fortnight though.
The end of series 3 was a bit nuts though wasn’t it?
( don’t want to spoil it for anyone not up to date )
Haven’t watched the latest yet, worth it?
There were moments where I was literally crying with laughter so I’d say yes, absolutely although I have recommended it to other people who thought it was gick.
If you liked the first two series you’ll definitely enjoy it, it’s more of the same in a different, gorgeous setting.
What’s not to like?
No the Sheik and Joxer in Magalluf would be v entertaining. The same crew in S.E. Asia would be even more entertaining – you snob.

David Attenborough is the biggest joker of the lot though… :-)
Prob loads more. It does make one feel bitter alright.
Thanks Boj, finally someone who understands ;-)
PS Reservation. David Attenborough does not deserve to be on your list. There are creatures alive today who wouldn’t be, had he not copped on.
Agree, that man could fly to the moon on tv licence money and I wouldn’t have an issue.
Ed Byrne wouldn’t have a career only for Dara O’Briain. He’s not funny.
I’m not disagreeing – but what’s your take on these ‘programmes’??
Don’t mind them. I loved the Trip. But prefer people who know a bit of history and politics to give everything some context. But that’s just because I’m a square.
I’d love t’do that

and Bodger multi-tasking as we go

Byrne is about as funny as a toothache.
Didn’t Byrne pop up again on Dara’s ‘Three Men and a Boat’ series?
He’d want to get himself another hobby
He was Dara’s best man iirc
