Join Ted, the beloved canine star of BBC2's Gone Fishing and bestselling author, as he embarks on a life-changing adventure, and discovers what truly matters to him.

What's the real story behind Ted's suitcase? What's in it and why does getting it back mean so much to him?

Maybe the answer lies with the film supremo Quentin Tarantino, who said the value of the briefcase in his classic movie Pulp Fiction lay not in its contents, but in the briefcase itself.

Rather like fishing, it’s not always about the fish you catch, but the joy of the time you spend on the riverbank, as Ted well knows. Accompanying Paul and Bob on their angling expeditions is one of the greatest pleasures of his life, alongside pocket meat.

In Pup Fiction, Ted tells the story of how all these delights collide in one life-changing, breathtaking European adventure.
