Featured Comments/Tips
Michael Palin decides to travel around the world without the use of planes and do it in eighty days. It becomes far more difficult than he thought which makes this an original and fun travelogue that also is locked in it''s own fascinating time capsule. Michael Palin is a surprisingly good host and has a pleasant narration too. It is also refreshing in that Michael doesn''t get the chance and time to see as much nature and attractions as he probably would have liked as he has to go on the move all the time on what seemed to have been a rather stressed experience for him (luckily he got compensated with new travels later on financed by BBC and the tax payers!)
