Description:

Get ready to head off on a sometimes shocking, often jaw-dropping but always hilarious journey around the world as Tony Rayns earns a living as an engineer. Lacking in tact and often unprepared he is used to surviving on nothing more than his wits and the occasional pot noodle. Whether in Syria, India, Nigeria, Barbados, Brazil or Angola, on an oil rig, power station or cement plant, it isn't long before he's managed to put his size 8 work boot well and truly in it. Simple tasks like ordering a drink, taking a shower and boarding a plane have landed him in trouble. He's not fared much better up against the local wildlife. A colourful array of local characters have attempted to keep him out of harm's way. Meet Veer Singh, his long suffering driver in India, Mr Bazooka the 'do not exit the airport without me under any circumstances' Nigerian bodyguard, and the machine gun armed 'Danger Car'. Though lacking in bilingual abilities through necessity he can ask for a beer in 17 languages while his undiscovered talent as a mime artist helps him negotiate the more technical situations. Join him on a romp around the globe and through the last forty years as he ventures 'Where Engineers Dare'.
