Actor-adventurer, Michael Palin continues talking to John McCarthy about his remarkable life and career as broadcast on BBC radio.

Michael has been a Python, a world traveller, author, actor and screenwriter, and often described as “Britain’s Nicest Man”.

However one area which is often overlooked from his long and impressive career are his fascinating radio contributions.

The second of three programmes featuring extracts from his mighty canon of radio work including his famous diaries, interviews about his comedy and travel work, documentaries and dramas.

From London’s BBC Radio Theatre.
