What will Susan be getting up to this time?
In Susan Calman's Grand Day Out series 5, we know where she'll be going in the first episode. After hitting the road, her first adventure will see her heading to the Yorkshire, one of her most frequently-visited destinations on the show.
Her first stop in Yorkshire is Newby Hall, a stately home found in Skelton-on-Ure. There, she's stopping by The Bear House, which is the permanent home to a collection of over 1,000 vintage teddy bears that were lovingly collected over the years by Gyles Brandreth and his wife, Michèle. One of the collection's most famous faces is that of The Muppets' funnyman Fozzie Bear.
Whilst visiting the collection, Susan shares that it was both Fozzie Bear (and fellow Scottish comedian, Billy Connolly) who inspired her to become a comedian (You can read more about the Brandreth Bear collection at the Newby Hall website).
Along with The Bear House, Susan will also be paying a visit to York Minster Cathedral, stopping by Betty's Cafe Tea Rooms, the Victorian spa town of Harrogate and she'll be enjoying a miniature steam train ride.
Where has Susan Calman been before?
Susan's already packed in plenty of adventures so far, up and the British Isles. Previous destinations have included the Scottish Highlands, Cornwall and Devon, north Wales, Belfast, the Peak District, Warwick, Bath, the New Forest, and Kent.
