News: Karl Pilkington Coming to Australia for An Idiot Abroad: The Bucket List

In an interview with Nova FM's Fitzy and Wippa, Karl Pilkington has revealed that he has filmed some parts for his upcoming show, An Idiot Abroad: The Bucket List.



This is the follow-up to the highly succesful An Idiot Abroad, in which Karl visited the Seven Wonders of the World.

Fitzy and Wippa spoke to Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington about all manner of things, including aliens, prostate checks and why Karl will probably never get married to his long-time partner Suzanne.

Of course, Karl offers up many more of his famous quotes, including Karl's ideal persona - "Bullshit Man"

But most importantly, Gervais let slip "Australia features... (Karl's) just done his time in Australia"

Then Karl said "I've been all over the shop, I was in like Adelaide, Sydney- I mean I didn't film that much there, it was just getting to where I went for the dolphin-swimming thing"

Then when Karl mentioned "Port Lincoln", co-host Fitzy twigged and said- "That's where the sharks are... out at Neptune Island"

Karl then said "Well there you go then, you worked out what I was doing with the swimming with dolphins"

"He knows that now," Gervais laughed. "He got there expecting dolphins".

Of Australia, Karl then said "It's just a bit big, isn't it?"

"It was nice, though", he followed it up with.

Then another quotable quote from Karl: "If anything, it's so much like England, it's not worth going... If you know what I mean"
