Marcus Brigstocke persuades his reluctant guests to try new experiences: things that they’ve perhaps always meant to try but haven’t had the time, the courage or perhaps the inclination.

Enjoy hearing some famous brands embrace new challenges, such as for example Phill Jupitus taking in absinthe, Mark Metal constructing flat-pack home furniture, Esther Rantzen finally becoming a member of Facebook, Kelly Holmes trying her initial deep-fried Mars club, Giles Coren having a go at getting vegan, and Frank Skinner getting a spray tan.

The curious guests include: Phill Jupitus, Paul Daniels, Mark Steel, Esther Rantzen, Suggs, Sandi Toksvig, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Jon Culshaw, Jenni Eclair, Ardal O’Hanlon, Kate Adie, Ian Hislop, Frank Skinner, Alan Davies, Kathy Burke, Sarah Millican, Meera Syal, Dave Gorman, Benjamin Zephaniah, Rebecca Front, Reece Shearsmith and Kelly Holmes.

If the experiences are banal or profound, the show is focused on getting out of our comfort zones and embracing the brand new.
