Richard Ayoade returns to provide much needed guidance and inspiration to would-be mini-breakers. This time, Richard is joined by comedian Lee Mack for a funny, yet surprisingly informative, 48 hours in Brussels - featuring culture, comics, pralines, puppets and attractions both large and small, including the Grand Place and the famous atom-shaped Atomium. There's also waffles, mussels - including Moules Genghis Khan - and the secrets of chocolate making.

Richard Ayoade is joined by comic actor and writer Robert Webb - the destination Madeira. Together they seek to discover more than the Portuguese island's eponymous wine and cake, although both are sampled along the way. With bags dropped at Funchal's wine-themed hotel The Vine, they board a vintage bus for the Old Timer tour which chugs past numerous city sights including the islet of Pontinha, whose owner has claimed independence from Portugal. Madeira is famed for its bananas and for the culinary bravado of combining them with fish. Richard and Robert sample the scary-looking Black Scabbard fish with banana at a remote sea front restaurant, reached only by sea or cable car.
