| "Michael Palin - Around the World in 80 Days: 20 Years On (DVD)" |
| "In the autumn of 1988 Michael Palin set out from the Reform Club to circumnavigate the world, following the route taken by Phileas Fogg in the epic novel of 1873. His journey became a great 20th century adventure and soon took its place as a classic TV series. Using only the modes of transport available to Jules Verne's hero, Michael Palin travels in a Venetian refuse barge, a battered taxi in Egypt, a primitive boat across the Persian Gulf, a Chinese steam engine and a container ship across the Date Line as his attempt to circumnavigate the world heralds a phenomenal journey of dhows, diarrhea, hungry parrots and a world full of surprises. 20 years later Michael Palin returned to the scene of one of the series most memorable sequences - when he sailed across the Persian Gulf from Dubai to Mumbai in a traditional dhow. Can he trace the men with whom he forged a special bond, and on whom his life depended twenty years ago?

| "Michael Palins Hemingway Adventure (DVD)" |
| "Monty Python’s Michael Palin follows up the success of his travel shows, treading in the far-flung footsteps of one of the 20th century’s most celebrated writers, and Palin’s hero, Ernest Hemingway. Depressive, disaster-prone, alcoholic and much married, Hemingway is viewed through the various locations he visited and wrote about in his novels. Comparing modern-day locations with rare archive footage featuring Hemingway, Palin follows him through Cuba, Spain, Kenya and many other places. Palin’s brand of light-hearted curiosity is very much in evidence as he looks at the novelist’s obsession with the bullfight, passion for reckless driving and, of course, his literature."
