In a new series for Channel 4, Jon Richardson Grows Up, our eponymous hero and his best friend, comedian Matt Forde, take to the road in a 1972 orange VW Campervan (called Florence) in search of answers to some of life's biggest questions: Can money make you happy? Is marriage the source of contentment or discord? Who's a better driver, Jon or Matt?
