Which TV traveller would you go on holiday with?

The joy of Miriam’s Big American Adventure is that Miriam Margolyes doesn’t bother to hide an iota of her dismay as she drives across Middle America.

• Margolyes tell us why she loved New Orleans and hates LA – and why diners are “absolutely terrifying”

She’s hilarious to watch, but would you like to be in the passenger seat – or would you be mortified by her candour?

How about a Great British Railway Journey with Michael Portillo instead? Or a weekend away with silver-tongued Fred from First Dates?

Miriam Margolyes falls for New Orleans: “It’s a happy-go-lucky town”
