No, it's Vera worrying about his heart. The bike in question is an
exercise bike so the trip will be virtual. In one scene they were outside

The Essex teacher who is exercise biking a virtual round the world trip? He
has some real excitement like virtually missing a Turkish earthquake by a

Doing 200 milles on an exercise bike without a good book on the
handlebars or the telly switched on in front of you.
