Part 2 of the Michael Parkinson chatshow originally broadcast on 28 September 2002. Michael Palin is the guest and he discusses his recent trip around the Sahara. This is the second part of Michael Palin's interview.
He does love the exploring, bless him. We used to go round to their house and say "Where's Michael?" and his mam would say, "He's out the back exploring." He was only ten. Oh, yes, he was always doing the exploring, was Michael, even in those days. But such a nice boy. So polite.
I too recommend his diaries, but their best experience via the audiobook's version which is narrate wonderfully by Palin himself. You can get em from audible.com.
