Continuing the series of Life On Screen documentaries, this one-hour special reflects on Michael Palin’s fascinating career as a BAFTA-winning actor, writer and presenter.

Michael speaks candidly in this in-depth interview, which has been filmed at The Reform Club in London – where he famously started and ended his televised journey Around the World in 80 Days.

Reflecting on his childhood memories and his relationship with his father, Michael recalls his childhood passion for performing and his family’s hesitance at him becoming an actor.

The programme also hears from some of Michael’s closest colleagues and friends, including John Cleese, David Jason, Connie Booth and Anna Friel, who share their fond memories and candid stories of working with Michael.
