The third and most ambitious of Michael Palin's adventures is a voyage of epic proportions - the circumnavigation of the Pacific Rim. He travels for almost a year through the 18 countries that border the world's largest ocean, and is forced to negotiate mountains, plunging gorges, cross glaciers and dodge icebergs. Volcanoes also mark Palin's journey. He climbs one which has freshly erupted and follows great rivers like the Yangtze and the Amazon to some of the most remote places on earth. He also eats maggots in Mexico and talks to head-hunters in Borneo.

Full Circle is the record of a journey of several lifetimes and of the colourful and beautiful world that stretches around the Pacific Ocean.

Michael’s travel documentaries are so pure, and it’s a joy to get even more detail. Lovely.

Some parts are skipped too fast while other moments or events are described in lots of detail. Nice overall.

Excellent

I’ve listened to a number of Michael Palin’s adventures and this was a great entree to the countries of the pacific rim he and his team visited. I did however have need a “visual” - so accessed BBC iPlayer to look at the South American episodes.

Gentle non-fiction
