La Dolce Vita in a medieval hilltop village. Miriam thinks what more could you possibly want in life, but can she persuade Shaun? Her small village also engages in medieval jousting, the prospect of which causes him some alarm. Resident geographer, historian and comedian Iszi Lawrence is there to calm his nerves.

Your Place Or Mine is the travel series that isn’t going anywhere. Join Shaun as his guests try to convince him that it’s worth getting up off the sofa and seeing the world, giving us a personal guide to their favourite place on the planet.
