Rob Rinder and Rylan Clark are setting off to India for a second series of their show 'Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour'.
The 46-year-old judge appeared alongside former 'X Factor' contestant Rylan, 35 in the BBC travelogue show - which saw the duo go to Italy -earlier this year and now a second series has been commissioned that will see Rylan and Rob set off to India.
Rylan said on Instagram: "So excited we’re back for series two and this time we’re off to INDIA. Bumped into each other yesterday and this is how excited we are. Thank you everyone that watched our show and we can’t wait until we get going for S2. I’ll try not to kill him."
The show focuses on the television personalities follow in the footsteps of 19th century romantic poet Lord Byron and other Grand Tourists as they immerse themselves in the art, culture, bad behaviour and life-changing exploits of historic Brits abroad.
After Greece, Spain and France were considered as destinations, show bosses ultimately decided to send the two stars east for a trip titled 'A Passage To India' in honour of E. M. Forster's 1924 novel.
Rylan previously admitted that the "best thing" about making the first show was the "genuine" friendship he built up with Rob.
Speaking on ITV's 'This Morning': “Watching it back, the narrative, the arc throughout the three episodes even something as stupid as in Venice, we were in separate accommodation. In Florence, we were in the same accommodation in different rooms and by Rome I'm waking up with him underneath me.
“But that's the narrative of the arc, we started this process as mates and we have finished it as actual genuine friends. That's been probably the best thing to come out of it.”
