Michael Palin continues his journey from the top of the world to the bottom.
Mediterranean Maze. From
Istanbul on the Bosphorus to Aswan on the Nile, Palin is walking in the footsteps of the immortals - Alexander the Great, Suleiman the Magnificent, Tutankhamun and Agatha Christie - as well as the thousands of tourists who browse among the ruins or brown upon the beaches. But few tour-operators include in their itineraries the British garrison in Cyprus, a genuine
Turkish bath, an audience with astrologer Patric Walker , or a Greek Orthodox wedding, complete with 3,000 guests.
Palin is heading for the Sudan, Africa's largest country, and described in his guide as "fraught with economic chaos, civil war, drought, famine and refugee crisis".
Producer Clem Vallance
A Prominent/Passepartout production for BBCtv
