Our Guy In Vietnam on SBS Viceland and SBS on Demand – 50 years after the end of the Vietnam War, Vietnam is ruled by one of the last remaining Communist governments, yet has one of the fastest growing economies in the world.
Fascinated by how a naturally-entrepreneurial people operate in a single-party authoritarian state, Guy Martin will explore Vietnam from its fields to its factories to find out how this country really works.
As usual, the truck mechanic and motorcycle racer from Grimsby throws himself in at the deep end, living and working alongside the Vietnamese.
From a 4.30am shift in the floating markets trying to sell mangoes to foreign tourists, to a high-speed test drive of a new electric vehicle made in an extraordinary car plant that’s 90% automated, to being a fish out of water as part of a Buddhist dragon boat team, Guy immerses himself completely in Vietnam’s vibrant life to work out what makes this country tick.
*Episode one airs at 8.30pm, episode two subsequently after at 9.25pm.
