Michael Palin talks returning to acting in new comedy from The Office legend – and how he approaches old age

I spend most of my time traveling and writing, but I also love acting. I’ve been lucky enough to work on projects like ‘A Fish Called Wanda,’ ‘The Death of Stalin,’ and ‘GBH,’ which were fantastic experiences, though those kinds of roles don’t come up very often. The writing by Mackenzie is truly unique – I especially appreciate his wit and insight into human nature. When he offered me a part, there was no way I could refuse, even with my busy schedule.
