MY EPIC CAMEL ADVENTURE
SUNDAY 22 DECEMBER, 7.30PM, BBC2 FACTUAL

Gordon Buchanan couldn’t wait to embark on a twoweek trek across the Gobi Desert to learn more about an animal synonymous with Christmas – the camel.

One-off BBC2 documentary My Epic Camel Adventure sees the intrepid wildlife cameraman begin his quest in the west of Mongolia and follows him as he crosses sweeping sand dunes, rocky plains and snowy mountains with only his new friends Squeaks and Chewy for company.

TV Times caught up with Gordon, 52, for an exclusive interview to find out more…

This sounds like an incredible experience, Gordon. Why did it appeal to you? Camels are one of the most- recognisable animals on the planet and they obviously feature in the Nativity story. So it was an opportunity to look at how extraordinary they are while also exploring the Gobi Desert, which is one of the most-amazing places in the world.

The plan was to put my camelriding skills to the test but I actually resorted to walking after about 10 days just to give my backside a bit of a rest. They’re not the most comfortable of creatures!
