Overseas Image Problem

In the first episode, Joe travels to India and meets the four locals who will join him on the trip - newsreader and journalist Gurmeet Chaudhary, call centre worker Mahima Bhardwaj, law student Amer Singh and student advisor Radhika Budhwar. All agree to risk life and limb to visit our reviled and dangerous country. Joe kicks off the Australian tour by mixing the glitz and glamour of Sydney Harbour with Australia's most renowned beach, Bondi. The travellers quickly become seduced by the beauty down under. But before his guests relax too much, Joe stops them in their tracks with a provocative mural plastered on an inner-city wall. The mural - which reads 'Ban the Burqa' - sparks off the first heated debate... and the Indians aren't the only ones upset by the message the mural carries.
