Around The World In 80 Days - Michael Palin sets out to travel around the world in 80 days using only the forms of transport available to the fictional Phileas Fogg. Part One, Outward Bound - Day one to twenty-eight - London, Alexandria, Saudia Arabia, Dubai, Bombay and Madras. Written and read by Michael Palin.
Full Circle - The definitive account of Michael Palin's latest adventure - an anticlockwise circumnavigation of the world's largest ocean, the Pacific, in which he travels through 18 countries that border this vast expanse of the sea.
Pole To Pole - From the top of the world right down to Antarctica, Michael Palin's five-month journey is a witty and enthralling follow-up adventure to Around The World In Eighty Days. Whether dodging icebergs in the Arctic Ocean, getting stranded in war-torn Sudan or even breaking a rib braving the rapids of Victoria Falls, Michael's unique brand of humour is the perfect companion for the armchair traveller.
Sahara - Michael Palin's journeys across the Sahara desert, a place or romantic, almost magical appeal. Periods of difficult travel are repaid with new sights and sounds, people, languages, food and customs.
Himalaya - A 2000-mile journey across Asia, with extremes of wealth and poverty, altitude and freezing cold, greet Michael on his trek. He meets with the Dalai Lama, the Bhutanese Royal Family and the once feared head hunting tribe of the Konyak. He travels through Afghanistan, across India and then onto the Bhutanese capital before arriving in the Bay of Bengal. |
