Peter Biddlecombe takes us on another irreverent global tour, snubbing his nose at the “gimmick tourists” and carrying on doing what he does best—business, all over the world, with a wonderfully diverse range of characters. Power-players in Milan, storm-trooping language police in Toronto, and just general chaos in Kinshasa are a mere selection of the obstacles the international businessman must face as he struggles to come to grips with the local way of doing things. But it’s all in the name of commerce, and whether he’s trapped in a luxury hotel during the riots in Bombay or working his way through a “Good Food Guide” to Ouagadougou, Peter Biddlecombe always comes out with a tale to tell.
