Travels with Palin
"From what I gather, people feel they are doing a journey with me. They like following someone who is relatively inexpert, who likes to travel but is by no means an authority."

Seasons & Episodes
1. Great Railway Journeys of the World: Confessions of a Trainspotter
Palin's first travel documentary was part of the 1980 BBC Television series Great Railway Journeys of the World, in which, humorously reminiscing about his childhood hobby of train spotting, he travelled throughout the UK by train, from London to the Kyle of Lochalsh, via Manchester, York, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Edinburgh and Inverness.
2. Great Railway Journeys of the World: Derry To Kerry
In 1994, Palin travelled through Ireland for the same series, entitled "Derry to Kerry". In a quest for family roots, he attempted to trace his great grandmother – Brita Gallagher – who set sail from Ireland 150 years ago during the Great Famine (1845–1849), bound for a new life in Burlington, New Jersey. The series is a trip along the Palin family line.
