The former Monty Python member told the crowd at a recent charity event in London that he will hit the road again. “I was thinking of retiring,” the 62-year-old Palin said, according to a Chortle report. “But what would I do? Probably just travel.” Palin, who has chronicled his extensive travels in video and book form, says he’ll stay closer to home this time around. Eastern Europe is the likely destination.

Any idea when we can see Michael Palin’s new travel series “New Europe”? It starts Sept 16 on BBC1 in the U.K. and I like to watch his shows as they are so much fun and so informative.

thanks.

I am looking forward to the new series, because I have traveled in parts of Eastern Europe.  Well, I also enjoy Mr. Palin and participate on his website
