Richard E Grant's Odyssey: A Modern Travelogue That Thrills!

Richard E Grant is embarking on a captivating journey in his new four-part travelogue, "Richard E Grant's Very Modern Odyssey". The veteran actor takes viewers on an adventure inspired by Homer’s legendary hero, Odysseus, promising a fresh and engaging take on ancient myths and stunning locales.

The series sees Grant, known for his lively persona, exploring various Mediterranean destinations. Far from being a dry historical account, the show is described as a "loose-limbed, easygoing thing" that separates Homeric myth from reality while embracing the fundamental unknowability of much of the ancient world. Grant himself, with his characteristic grin, suggests they are "dealing with an act of the imagination," setting a tone of joyous discovery rather than academic rigor.

Grant's energetic presence is a highlight, with reviewers noting how he "gobbles up food, roars with glee, and finds himself deeply moved." His enthusiasm is infectious as he gesticulates wildly and expresses genuine wonder at the sights before him. The journey kicks off in the breathtaking Malta's Grand Harbour, a "sobbingly beautiful gateway to the Mediterranean," and continues to picturesque locations such as Valletta.

This "Very Modern Odyssey" has been lauded for its thrilling and entertaining approach, standing out from other, potentially more ponderous, historical interpretations. It's praised as a "real success of a show," offering viewers an immersive and enjoyable experience alongside one of Britain's most beloved actors.
