Synopsis
Is it ever possible to shortcut your way to the top? Let's find out in Man v Expert. Each week, hustler Alexis Conran takes on three intense challenges, against world-class experts, to see if he can find a way to beat them at their own game - without going through years of hard work and training. In any normal head-to-head contest, Alexis wouldn’t stand a chance, but he travels the world to look into science and technology, and occasionally calls on his trickster know-how in an attempt to come out on top. During the series, Alexis sees a childhood dream come to fruition when he feels the pressure of a penalty shootout against the Premier League’s greatest-ever penalty taker, Matt Le Tissier. He also hops behind the wheel in his hometown, challenging London’ s legendary black cab drivers and their knowledge of the city to a race across the capital, and attempts to row his way to victory in a one-on-one kayak race against a five-time European and 11-time Slovakian champion.
