First broadcast: on CBBC HDLatest broadcast: on CBBC Channel

Ed and Cel visit Dotonbori, a street in Osaka famous for its restaurants, street food and amazing giant food signs! After finding out all about the street and the amazing food you can get here, they return at night to see it in its neon glory - and to do what the locals do and eat till they drop!

Ed and Iain take a ride on the world's fastest rollercoaster! The Formula Rossa in Abu Dhabi is the closest most of us will ever get to driving a Formula 1 racing car, with a top speed of 240kph! After a very hair-rising ride, there's only one thing to do - and that's have another go!

Ed and Naomi are on different sides of the Great Wall when he becomes a Mongolian marauder intent on storming the wall, and she is a Chinese Emperor making sure the wall keeps him out! As the song says 'the Great Wall of China - as walls go, there's nothing finer' and we find out exactly why the Great Wall is great! Musically, Ed sings as an angry heavy metal type marauder while Naomi sings like a C-pop emperor diva.

Ed and Lauren meet Somchai, who has an amazing collection of over 50,000 superhero collectibles and toys - the largest in Thailand! Ed and Lauren use their super-senses to find some prized Batman possessions, and then it's time for Lauren to play Superhero or Superzero! Game Show Man asks her three superhero questions - but will she win the star prize?

Ed and Inel discover their inner big cats when they visit this amazingly colourful festival in Kerala in Southern India! Every year hundreds of people get painted and dress up as tigers and leopards for a celebration of the harvest season called Oman, so our two travellers get their bodies painted in a big cat style and put on some masks to take part in a Tiger Dance off to see who has the eye of the tiger!
