BBC Radio 4 - Ramblings, Gloucestershire with Dom Joly

Clare walks with travel writer and comedian Dom Joly.

Clare walks with comedian and travel writer Dom Joly near his home in Cheltenham.

Dom Joly, famous for Trigger Happy TV, takes Clare on a walk near to his home in Gloucestershire. Leaving the village of Winchcombe, they walk up Spoonley Hill to see the remains of a Roman Villa. As they walk, Dom talks about his love of walking, discovered later in life after he became a travel writer. Recently he walked the entire length of Lebanon where he was born. His book The Hezbollah Hiking Club is an account of the 27 day walk. And he has been an avid walker since moving to Gloucestershire.
