Go To

1* ChannelHop: The first two trips were broadcast on Creator/{{Bravo}} while the third was streamed on Creator/AppleTVPlus.
2* FriendshipOnTheSet: Discussed in the first episode of the first season, when Ewan and Charley remember how they became buds after both appearing in 1997 film ''The Serpent's Kiss''.
3* SequelGap: There's a 12-year gap between ''Down'' and ''Up'' because [=McGregor=] and Boorman couldn't get their busy schedules to sync and the two drifted apart. After Boorman suffered a bad accident, the two decided to rekindle their friendship and make time to do the trip.
4* SavedFromDevelopmentHell: Creator/EwanMcGregor and Charley Boorman both expressed enthusiasm for taking on a third trip, ''Long Way Up''. But it was almost impossible for [=McGregor=] to set aside enough time for the project, resulting in a 12 year gap between ''Long Way Down'' and ''Long Way Up''.
