[edit] Background
After Long Way Down and Long Way Round, Boorman and producer Russ Malkin conceived By Any Means in late 2007. Travelling across 24 countries, Boorman will use modes of transport native to the area he is in. The crew will comprise only a cameraman, Boorman and Malkin.
[edit] Departure
The expedition got underway on the 12th April 2008 from Boorman's father John Boorman's house in Wicklow. They rode their motorbikes up to Kilkeel before crossing the Irish sea and driving down to London.
[edit] Release and tie-ins
The show will be aired in Autumn 2008 on the BBC and, later, National Geographic. There will also be a subsequent DVD and book release.
