description: The book of the major BBC television series. The story of a Great Twentieth Century Adventure... In the autumn of 1988 Michael Palin, actor, comedian and writer, set out from London's Reform Club to circumnavigate the world, following the route taken 115 years earlier by Phileas Fogg. The rules were simple. He had to complete the journey in 80 days and could use only those forms of transport which would have been available to Fogg. Palin's Passepartout was not a loyal French manservant but a BBC film crew who recorded his every move. Fogg brought back a Princess, Palin a lot of dirty laundry and a television series.
