58 minutes of pure joy. What a warm and wonderful man Michael Palin is. How is it that this video doesn't have 594 MILLION views? It is because 593 million people are totally missing out on the best things in life.
Michael Palin is what I call a 'Diamond Geezer'. I grew up in the 1960s and as a kid I sneaked down into the living room to watch Monty Python on the B&W TV set. He made me the person I am today. An absolute Gumby! 🙂 God bless you, Michael.
Top man. Met him at a book signing for "Full Circle" at Book Soup in Los Angeles in 1997. Every bit the gentleman and nice guy I knew he would be. Just read his book on the ship Erebus. A good read and highly recommended. I love all the Pythons, but Michael is my favorite. RIP Graham Chapman and Terry Jones.
A global treasure. Funny, charming, intelligent, handsome, sweet, modest, honest. A beautiful human being. Michael is 30 years older than me, but I'd like to die before he does, simply because I don't want to live in a world that he does not inhabit.
I found myself getting emotional at the moment Terry J's voice broke when presenting the BAFTA to Michael. As I write this I'm keenly aware that Michael is dealing with the loss of his great friend.
Michael Palin, everyone's favourite Python. My favourites among his work are Golden Gordon, Jaberwocky, and Around the Word in 80 Days. What a great bloke!
The greatest of the Pythons, and I love them all. I was lucky enough to work with Graham for a day in the early 80s, and even in the presence of this absolute hero of mine, I couldn't help but talk a bit about Michael Palin...to which Graham smiled and quite agreed. Many millions of people have talked about how the Beatles changed their lives, but for me it was the Pythons more than anything else. Irreverence and kindness are truly sacred qualities.
While the humor of many comics is rooted in depression and other dark areas of the human psyche, the humor of Michael Palin comes from him having fun at doing what he does and we are all better because of it.
I knew Michael was my favorite python when I realized he was in all my favorite sketches: argument clinic, cheese shop, Spanish Inquisition and of course, dead parrot.
lovely man.. Superb comic talent and it probably hurt Michael the most of all the Pythons when we lost his long time friend Terry Jones last week.. Thanks for this doco.
He's been around the world in 80 days, he's gone from pole to pole, sahara no problem, a trepid explorer, a master of comedy and he's a lumberjack lol. A great life michael palin has lived and more yet to come 👍.
Michael Palin was always my favorite. Ripping yarns was brilliant. A priest I knew said he had not seen Life of Brian because the church said it was blasphemous. He finally decided to see it 20 years later and thought it was hilarious (and not blasphemous).
in 1973 i was going to college in aptos, california.....did not have a t.v. then as there was only four channels and t.v. was known as the boob tube....saw a python skit at a bar and was blown away....so i bought a 9 inch black and white t.v. that i kept in a closet....only watched it on tuesday nights at 9 when p.b.s. did the python show.....soooo thoroughly enjoyed that 30 minutes every tuesday night....great memory
Michael Palin is brilliant! I was so happy to see him in the Death of Stalin. Such a funny movie and Palin as usual...was spot on and just wonderful! He's a national treasure for my cousins across the pond. Glad you shared him with us Yanks....lol. cheers!
One of the many things I love about the fish slapping dance is during the close two shot. I I suppose technically it's a wide "over the shoulder" of Michael, but you can clearly see that John is trying to keep it together as Mikey dances up and back, flicking his cheeks. Honestly, everything about that sketch is perfect, from the costuming to the music, Michael's gay little dance... it's perfectly silly, which is really the essence of Monty Python.
It's so embarrassing: after literally 35 years of loving the Pythons, I only just recently realized that Palin was the one who did the biggest variety of characters. I don't know if that's a tribute to his artistry or my idiocy. Probably mostly the latter. :)
‘Around the world in 80 days’ is still my favourite ever travel documentary I watch it at least once a year, throughly enjoying it on each occasion. Michael Palin brought a whole new dimension of being like ‘the man next door’ discovering the wonders of the world.
Roddy Teague Alan Whicker hardly acted like ‘the man next door’. Also, I can find nothing that suggests that he ‘passed opinion’ on Michael Palin, let alone that he “did not rate Palin as a travel man at all”, perhaps you could reference that for me.
I've adored this man for 50 years --- always thought he would have made the best Don Quixote.... Thank you for continuing to brighten my life Sir Michael!
Love this man so much! I always thought from the Python days that he was funny and handsome, but what's so great is that he's also a terrific actor. He's done some 'straight' roles in smaller movies that I really loved. A Fish Called Wanda is one of my favorite films. And casting him as one of the villains in Brazil is still one of the most brilliant bits of casting I think ever done, because you can't ever imagine him being villainous as himself, but he absolutely nails it! His travel programs are always a great go-to to watch when I'm feeling sick - Around the World, Pole to Pole, even the one in North Korea. He's so likable and can make anything entertaining.
He actually hosted it 3 times, the first 2 in the '70s. Eric also hosted a couple of times in the '70s, the first inc!uding the original short film of THE RUTLES.
Monty Python, Firesign Theatre, George Carlin and many others too numerous to mention have brought many decades of hilarious entertainment.....thank you to the Pythons for the comedic laughter....it has kept me young .......
A huge fan of MP in all his endeavours, 'GBH' is my favourite dramatic thing he's done... (A difficult piece and very much of its time, he kicks it out of the stadium...) Talented in so many ways, he's a quite BRILLIANT straight actor... xx SF
oh my GODS !!! stumbled and came up here , to see this is an unforseen GREAT sign that makes it easier to LAUGH MY ASS OFFFF at LIFE as it is... MAY THE GODS BE PRAISED for creating people like this XXX Much LOVE and KIND thoughts to all of them out there
Michael Palin father's reaction to the goon show was similar to my parents reaction to Monty Python. They couldn't get thier head round it. I loved it then and still do today.
The Molotov-Hruschov scene of Palin and Buscemi was one of the best parts of the movie, together with the Zhukov entrance and the final meeting/ousting of Berija
First time I saw Michael Palin I fell for him - THEN I fell for Monty Python. The Blackmail Sketch - that was the first time I saw him. And the Fish Slapping Dance made me laugh so hard I wet myself. I am so glad the rest of the world fell with me!!!
Most of my warped humour and art design was thanks to these 5 fella's making me a life long fan which I passed on to my two daughters who, no doubt will pass it on to their children. The Life of Brian being one of the single most important pieces of work explaining religion which they wrote and made. George Harrison of the Beatles mortgaged his house and business to fund this wonderful film with the Peoples Popular Front of Judea.
Do love Michael Palin & ẹnoy the documentary. But...did & do have trouble with killing & disemboweling the snake on camera to eat it. Also, later toasting w green snake fluids (gallbladder).
Have a look at a three part TV series he did back in 2014 called 'Remember me'. Fantastic! And I loved seeing Terry Jones (24.50) sat in front of a picture of himself sat at a piano naked, an image that always makes me chuckle.
I've loved the Pythons from the first moment I saw them, all equally and especially Michael's travel shows. Live long and prosper, you grotty bastards!
Brilliant actor/performer, his Mom was also brilliant and a natural at 31:05, to me she represented the best of old England - what England used to be but Michael is a fantastic performer and v. v. funny.
Michael’s brilliant “New Europe” series prompted me to learn more about this fascinating person. Truly a unique gentleman, sharing the gift of himself with the world.
An exceptional documentary about an extraordinarily multi-talented and truly gifted human being!!! Michael Palin is without question a national treasure for the U.K. and clearly embodies some of the finest qualities and traits anyone could desire to have. His comedic wit helped make Monty Python’s Flying Circus , the resounding success it was. The films and documentaries he was involved with thereafter, showed how broad based his talents actually were. His travel log documentaries were equally as incredible, as his comedic and dramatic works were. The world has been enriched by this man and his many extraordinary achievements, on both the little screen and the big screen! Very much enjoyed seeing his work showcased in this comprehensive documentary. I am sure all of us have enjoyed his performances over the years, encompassing so many different genres. Thank you for providing us with a look back at all Michael Palin has given us over so many years. He has enriched all our lives, with everything he has done. Hopefully , he will continue to grace us with his talent for years to come!
At 44:15 the audio of the opening starts playing over the video of the program and the proper audio track doesn't resume until 46:47. Fix this, you dolts!
Great documentary of an extremely talented actor, comedian, and who also appears to be a helluva nice guy. Michael has provided me, personally, many laughs and reasons to enjoy the absurdities of life. Thank you, Sir!
I really have enjoyed Palin's complete body of work. Brazil is especially great work by him. I was hoping for some comments by Eric Idle I don't remember him once in the doc.
as much as this great man has done monty pythons films are my favourite then i remember how much i enjoyed around the world in 80 days for me no travel show can compete with that then fish called oh sod it everything this great man has done if so fantastically watchable.
26:32 - 'Spike sent me a fan letter' - One of my most prized possessions is a beautifully hand written letter from Spike, who very courteously replied to me, after I had sent him a little note saying how much I liked his work.
Amazing to see the mastermind behind 80 days; Clem Vallance. And Roger Mills, Basil Pao and Angela Elbourne. I've always wanted to see them.They really should do a reunion and get all the crew together who were involved in making arguably the greatest travel documentary of all time. And there is also one other very special person who should be involved and that is the genius who created the music for the documentary... Mr Paddy Kingsland.
One aspect of the lives of the male entertainers who have been special to me over the years, is longterm fidelity to their wives. I have no idea why my brain started doing it, but I suppose it’s bc it’s something I respect so much when these men reach a stature when they can easily have much younger, money diggers by their sides. Which is why I so respect Palin....he’s a true mensch in every sense of the word, and I love it!
If every man was as decent and kind as this man, we would be living in a better and safer world
Conversely, if the world was a better and safer place, we'd get more men like Michael Palin.

Everything I know about Flower arranging came from Michael Palin
I'm an American. Michael Palin is a World treasure in my eyes.
Michael Palin...tied with John Cleese as my favorite Python. And his "Around The World" series was absolutely outstanding. A truly exceptional man.
77776tttttttyt9jj

Michael is 30 years older than me, but I'd like to die before he does, simply because I don't want to live in a world that he does not inhabit.

Yes, choking up in under 2 minutes..
@flint the kaka harris Terry Jones just died.
It was very moving
Pity John Cleese has turned into a "toffee nose" ...
Ditto
I met him in 1980 in Cardiff. He was genuinely pleased that I liked his performance in Three Men In A Boat on British TV. Very natural, very genuine.
"TMiaB" was hilarious!
Michael Palin truly is the compassionate beating heart of the Pythons.
One of five, yes.
Self serving beating heart of one of the pythons.
@@degsbabe Is that you, John Cleese?

Michael's "Around the World in 80 Days" is still one of my favorite "real life" shows, ever. So well done and he adds just the right humor to it, too.
I so agree. Around the World in 80 Days is when I learned what BMW stood for! “ brake my windows “! I still share this insightful meaning! Genius.
@@deborahhoover9730Ha! He did several other travel series, such as "Pole To Pole", which is also well worth watching.
I knew Michael was my favorite python when I realized he was in all my favorite sketches: argument clinic, cheese shop, Spanish Inquisition and of course, dead parrot.
You forgot the "Lumber jack" skit! I know, I know, you can't list all of your favorites..... the list would go on forever.
Bicycle repairman!
I love his humor, his acting, creativity and writing - but his heart, I love the most.
It shines through all of the above.
He deserves that BAFTA recognition lifetime award! 👍💖
I love his travels documentery and his comady acting.

Of all the Pythons, he was the most versatile, when it came to portraying varied characters.
Along with gray
