Off the Grid

Colin reveals that the series is an “off-the-beaten-path food adventure” where he and Manu travel around New Zealand for a month in a caravan.

The Irish chef explains that Off The Grid was filmed “a few months ago” in between production for MKR Australia and MKR New Zealand, but has been a long time in the making.

Off The Grid is set to air early next year on Channel Seven before the fifteenth season of MKR premieres. (Colin says) he and Manu are hopeful the series will be picked up for a second season so they can continue travelling around the world together.

The show is produced by Screentime New Zealand (a Banijay company) in association with Seven.
