Amazing Adventures of a Nobody

Amazing Adventures of a Nobody

Amazing Adventures of a Nobody is a documentary/factual entertainment TV series that follows Leon Logothetis, the presenter, on his travels around the U.K. on just 5 pounds a day. The 5 pounds have to cover food, accommodation and travel; the 5 pounds reflecting the average hourly wage, according to the Department of Trade and Industry in the U.K.. Leon had certain cities he had to pass through and was only ever allowed to stay for 24 hours in each city. The 5 pounds could not roll over and had to be spent, with each morning being presented a new five pound note for each new day. The public could buy him things and he could work for goods, but was never allowed to be given money directly.

Before Leon had done the U.K. version He travelled the U.S.A on $5 Dollars a day which he started in Times Square, New York and had to finish at the Hollywood Sign, Los Angeles. It has been announced that he will be doing a European version in which he will travel from Paris, France all the way to Moscow, Russia.

Amazing Adventures of a Nobody has been shown on numerous Television Channels including Sky3, Sky Travel, Life One & Extreme Sports Channel.
