Truck mechanic and motorcycle racer Guy Martin goes on an off-beat 2500-mile journey around Japan to find out how it really works.

S1 E2 • 12/1/2019
Guy visits a slum in Yokohama, where he sneaks into `love hotels', illegal gambling dens and the yakuza-organised crime gang headquarters. The rest of his offbeat itinerary includes working with the maintenance team on the world's longest, strongest and most expensive suspension bridge, and training under the mystical guidance of one of Japan's last remaining swordsmiths. Guy also makes a special detour to pay his respects at Hiroshima, where he finds the tram that was up and running just three days after a nuclear bomb destroyed the city in August 1945.
