Stick with it. It doesn’t get any more believable, but the momentum builds quite nicely and you get caught up in how they’re going to tie it all together. Or I did anyway!
I hadn't watched seasons 1 & 2, but watched season 3 due to the hype, but gave up after a few episodes as it wasn't that funny
My opinion was exactly the same but stick with it, it gets really funny, just watched the latest episode and almost pissed my self laughing.
You might be recalling an episode from series 1 where he did Hull to Bridlington (at about 22 mins in) ... or this episode...
Watched portillos railway programmes a few times but not for awhile Christ he’s getting camperer and camperer isn’t he
I’m actually walking up the platform on the first one. Remember Portillo jumping off the train with his cameraman. I’m a bit blurred but I know it’s me.
Saw him outside Leeds train station once, remember his nose was massive and he was a tiny ****er… not much more to add..
