Aatif Nawaz: Lahore, Pakistan

Aatif Nawaz makes a pitch for Lahore.

Award-winning actor, writer, presenter and comedian Aatif Nawaz has travelled the globe, notably for his work as a cricket commentator for the iconic Test Match Special. But Lahore in Pakistan is where he feels like he’s home. Can the city’s stunning Mughal architecture and extraordinary array of delicious food and cultural experiences tempt Shaun to Pakistan?

Your Place or Mine is the travel podcast that isn’t going anywhere - not until guests can convince Shaun Keaveny it’s worth getting off the sofa for. Each week a familiar face will try to persuade Shaun and resident geographer, historian and comedian Iszi Lawrence that jetting off to their favourite destination is worth the hassle.

Across the series, listeners will be able to figuratively globe-trot to a new destination, as guests share a personal guide to their favourite place on the planet. Iszi will be on hand to check out the facts during the podcast’s metaphorical tour of its visitors’ much-loved locations.

With all the missed travel these past two years, Your Place or Mine will explore whether getting back on a plane is too much for our wallets and limited carbon budgets, or if seeing the world and experiencing global cultures is something we can’t afford to miss.

Your Place or Mine is a Â鶹Éç Audio production for Â鶹Éç Radio 4 and Â鶹Éç Sounds.

Producers: Proinsias O’Coinn and Jen Whyntie
