Dr Alex George literally shows us his humble village routes around gorgeous Carmarthenshire in southern Wales and how his rural lifestyle and love of sport shaped him into the successful influencer he is today. Dr Alex explains how he harnessed the fame found on Love Island to become a mental health champion and the UK’s first Youth Mental Health Ambassador.
Travelling around in a Land Rover Defender 90, Dr Alex takes us from the town of Carmarthen to several places including the remote setting of his old family home and former schools, one of which is now derelict and abandoned. Being diagnosed with ADHD just a few years ago, the rivers, valleys and locations evoke vivid memories and stories which leave Dr Alex wondering how different life would have been if he had been diagnosed with ADHD earlier.
He also opens up about the loss of his brother and how he’s using his experiences to benefit others. Ending at the local hospital - another significant and inspiring place for him - Dr Alex also shares with us his key ingredients to living a happy life.

Show on the Road gets an exclusive look into the life of the man behind the magnesium, as Big Manny takes us for a tour of his manor around Barking and Dagenham.
Big Manny and his vast knowledge of science combined with that verbal swagger is inspiring the next generation of scientists like nothing else. But as we hear in this episode, things could have been very different, after his first videos had to be pulled off the web and we uncover his other passion in life, music.
Cruising around in a BMW X6 M60i, Big Manny takes us to his family home, his old school where he developed that love of science and where he used to work as a lab technician before going viral. We also go and see some science in action as well and get him to explain what’s going on and its impact on the environment.
