Come brethren, follow us into the unknown in search of greater glory - or certainly greater glorious failure, as we set off on the World's Worst Pilgrimage. We are joined barefoot and penitent by comedian and history buff Mike Shephard who teaches us all we could ever hope to know about the Children's Crusade. Ben leads us three times around a few Irish islands, and Barry gives creepy Japanese dolls a Viking send off. There are also chapels for dogs, imaginary pilgrimages and the micronation of Seborga.
