At the Edinburgh TV Festival, actor, writer and presenter Michael Palin is set to host an exclusive preview of Channel 5’s upcoming and tentatively titled docuseries Michael Palin in North Korea<\/em>, followed by an interview with TV\/radio\/podcast personality Edith Bowman.<\/p>\n

Palin will discuss his 1,300-mile journey across the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), where he was the first Western broadcaster to visit a number of remote locations in the secretive country. The documentary series is made by ITN Productions. It will premiere on Channel 5 later this year.<\/p>\n

Palin stated: \u201cMy journey through North Korea was one of the most fascinating and revealing of all my travels. Many people have a view on North Korea, but very few get the chance to see what this secretive country actually looks and feels like. This was a voyage of discovery, in the best sense of the word, and I look forward to sharing my unique experiences with the audience in Edinburgh.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bowman noted: \u201cI\u2019ve had the pleasure of spending time with Michael over the years; he\u2019s such a joy to spend time with. I think he\u2019s one of the world\u2019s most compelling storytellers, be it in comedy, acting or traveling to the far corners of the globe. He also used to be my neighbor!\u201d<\/p>\n

Phil Edgar-Jones, advisory chair, added: \u201cHaving Michael Palin at the TV Festival is the icing on top of the icing on the cake. He could talk about dust and it would still make a fascinating hour, so I am baggsying a front-row seat as he takes us through his North Korean adventure. I cannot wait\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
