Exclusive: Comedian Rhod Gilbert on driving killer roads

TV funny man Rhod Gilbert has spoken exclusively to Autoblog about his brush with death on one of the world's most dangerous roads.

The Welsh comic and his trusty accomplice Greg Davies (of Inbetweeners Mr Gilbert fame), challenged to drive through Nepal for BBC2's World's Most Dangerous Roads series, enjoyed a few scrapes on the lethal roads and nearly came to a sticky end because of a landslide.

Autoblog: Nepal eh? Sounds like quite a long way from the Welsh valleys. Instead of the sheep and speed camera hazards back home, what did the roads there throw at you?
Rhod Gilbert: Mostly landslides and motorbikes with 20 chickens hanging off the sides, pigs, wild dogs, oh and buses with 700 people on board – mostly driven by four-year-olds.
