Michael Palin Discusses His Travels

In this interview Michael Palin briefly discusses the legendary Monty Python and his not so new role as the nations traveller with CNN's Anjali Rao. Michael talks as candidly as ever as he reveals that he was actually the fifth person to be asked to present the first of his many travels, "Around The World In Eighty Days" and talks of what a frightening adventure it would turn out to be. The experience obviously didn't put him off as "Pole To Pole", "Full Circle" and Sahara were to follow among others.
On the Python years Michael talks about his fellow Pythons, the nuances of  its global domination and some tricks of the trade but family life in Sheffield, movies and the future are also brought up which includes a new series covering Brazil.
