Gadget Man is back for a new series, and Richard Ayoade still isn't finding life any easier. Cooking, shopping, moving house, going out or even staying in are among the activities that involve far too much effort for Ayoade's liking. That's why he's continuing his crusade to find gadgets that can ease his pain. In the first episode, Richard takes on the worst of the British weather. With the help of comedian Tim Vine he braves a hurricane in a wind tunnel to assess the best in gust busting gadgetry. And to help him pressure test the finest cold weather technology, Richard is joined in the wilds of the Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre by comedian Marcus Brigstocke, culminating in some hilarious results. The show climaxes with Richard revealing his bespoke survival raft built by his technical team to withstand the meteorological apocalypse that he's convinced is just around the corner.
