Description:

This week travel writer Dan Stables takes us on a thought-provoking journey through festivity, exploring some of the most eye-catching celebrations around the world from Gloucester's quirky cheese rolling contest to ritual mortification on the Thai island of Phuket. We discuss Spain's unmatched ability to party, Sulawesi's unique approach to death and whether or not you can visit the underworld from a shed in Lancashire.
