Hi, I'm Ricky Gervais, with me Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington.

Um, we're here to tell you about our brand new show, An Idiot Abroad 2, coming soon to Science.

A lot of people wondering why Idiot Abroad 2 is on Science.

No, no, no, they've asked me to mention that it's like a sort of social experiment because we've taken an absolute twonk and we've sent him around the world to do like a bucket list, you know, things before you die.

There's only one channel for this sort of stuff and that's the Science Channel.

But it shouldn't have to be science, does they have science stuff they put out on this channel?

It's not, I've seen a program about how they make crisps.

That isn't major science breakthrough there.

If they came out years ago, it would have been better for them.

In the 80s was the big, that was the big period of time.

There was loads of stuff, there was loads of stuff coming out, it's when like the home computer came out.

And what sound, what what's the first sound you used heard in the 80s and you thought that wasn't around in the 70s?

You got to sit through three minutes of that whilst it loaded up manic minor.

Don't just, I can't, I I can't work out what three minutes of that sounds like.

What are the they must that might can't be the only sound.

That's like a, there was cappuccino machine.
