Russia
Dom Joly and Pete Wilkins' booze-fuelled adventure takes them to Russia, and the pair soon learn what it takes to fit into a society where 80 per cent of the world's vodka is consumed.

They also try to write poetry under the influence of absinthe, and set aside a sober moment to race on Formula One racing track the Nurburgring.
