Rylan Clark and Rob Rinder were flooded with support as they issued a huge update about their hit BBC Two programme. The dynamic duo won over audiences after first teaming up last year for their travel show, Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour. The three-part series followed the pair as they explored Italy’s most exquisite art treasures in cities like Venice, Florence, and Rome, tracing the path of 19th-century poet Lord Byron and other historical Grand Tourists.
In October, it was confirmed the duo would be returning to screens for another series, but this time they will be travelling across India. Their project is clearly going from strength to strength as Rylan, 36, announced that it has been nominated for a BAFTA TV Award in the Factual Entertainment category. Taking to Instagram, the This Morning presenter admitted he “couldn’t believe it” as he shared the news with his followers.

“I can’t believe I’m saying this, we’re nominated for a @bafta thank you so much for watching,” he wrote alongside an image of The Grand Tour on the nominees list.
Rob, 46, commented on the post: “‘There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.’ Well done you clever, kind brilliant human.”
The Good Morning Britain host shared the news on his own Instagram with the same image, writing: “So @rylan said we’d either get cancelled or win a BAFTA???????????? Proud of you my friend. Thanks to everyone who watched us and found joy.”
