A LARGER-than-life adventure epic from Glasgow’s comic guru, Connolly who in sailing the North West Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific outdid the likes of Captain and Drake.

In true Connolly fashion, he breezes through an Arctic world that is fast disappearing through global warming without dwelling too much on the climatic bombshell.

He’s a people and a "happening sort of guy", so if you want to meet a bear-whisperer or a fiddle-playing scarecrow-maker, or even learn what it is like to kiss a cod, then he’s your man.
