Palin embarks on new travel series
Globe-trotting actor and television presenter Michael Palin has decided to put his retirement plans on hold to make another travel show - because he would have spent his free time travelling anyway.
The former Monty Python star made the switch from acting to travel shows in the late 1980s when the acclaimed BBC documentary 'Around the world in 80 days' saw him follow in the footsteps of fictional adventurer Phileas Fogg.
