]]>After many years of planning, he has now been granted access in order to film a documentary about the nation.
The series will air on Britain’s Channel 5 later this year and will be called Michael Palin in North Korea.
“To visit North Korea was an opportunity I couldn’t turn down,” Palin said. “For somewhere that is so often in the forefront of the news, it remains a complete mystery to most of us. That we were able to travel across the country and get some sense of everyday life was enormously exciting.
“The visit was an eye-opener for me, and I’m sure it will be the same for others. In all my travels around the world, I have never had the same sense of fascination and revelation as on this journey to North Korea.”
