A heads up. Micheal Palin: In North Korea, just started on Channel 5. I'm watching with interest.

Very interesting, even allowing for the controls placed on him. Second part next Thursday.

It was good IMO. Interested as to how many parts the series is.

I thought the sanctions were supposed to stop him doing FOREX trading and living the dictator’s lifestyle?

I wouldn't be surprised if Trump sold him these new high tech weapons.

It is Air Force One, it has a few custom mods.

It's a 747-200B that's spent a whole season on Pimp My Ride.

That would probably be the only season worth watching.
