Michael Palin explores the countries that were, for much of his life, hidden behind the Iron Curtain, and now are very much part of the New Europe of post-Soviet times. 　　1 - War and Peace 　　Countries visited: Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Albania 　　In Medjugoree Michael encounters a visionary who first started having visitations from the Virgin Mary 25 years ago. In Dubrovnik he meets with lute maestro Edin Karamazov who made the recent 'Songs from the Labyrinth' album with Sting. Michael ends this visit with a sheep sacrifice which heralds an afternoon of music and hospitality typically Balkan. 　　2 - Eastern Delight 　　Countries visited: Macedonia, Bulgaria, Turkey 　　Michael makes a remarkable visit to Göreme, where the rocks have been carved to form homes and some of the most remarkable churches of the early Christian era. Leaving the Cappodocia region by balloon, he sails east towards the borders of the New Europe, which if Turkey were to join the European Union would include Iran, Iraq and Syria. 　　3 - Wild East 　　Countries visited: Trans-Dniester, Romania 　　Michael travels from Transdniester, a breakaway state from the Republic of Moldova, to the Vaser Valley in Romania, where he joins 80 lumberjacks as they board a wood-fired steam train. He finally ends up at Bran Castle in Transylvania, the ancestral home of Vlad the Impaler and alleged home of Bram Stoker's Dracula. 　　4 - Danube to Dnieper 　　Countries visited: Hungary, Ukraine 　　Michael travels by road, rail and river through Hungary and the Ukraine, ending in the Black Sea resort of Yalta. Along the way he visits Budapest's 'House of Terror', a National Park in Hortobagy, an area which Attila the Hun was reputed to have rampaged across, and ends up meeting a Leeds market trader who married the Ukranian prime minister's daughter. 　　5 - Baltic Summer 　　Countries visited: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Russia 　　Michael travels from Tallinn in the north, through Latvia, to Lithuania in the south, sailing into the Baltic from the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, formerly East Prussia. In Estonia he visits a pyramid house and samples the medicinal properties of leeches. In Latvia he visits one of the most secretive places of the Communist-era, the astronomical telescope. 　　6 - From Pole to Pole 　　Country visited: Poland 　　Arriving in Gdansk via canal, Michael meets former electrician Lech Walesa who formed 'Solidarity', Poland's first independent trade union, which led to the demise of communism in that country. Heading to Warsaw he visits the Palace of Culture, Stalin's controversial gift to Varsovians. Michael then makes his own personal pilgrimage to Auschwitz. 　　7 - Journey's End 　　Countries visited: Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany 　　High in the Tatra mountains of Slovakia, Michael skins a pig, and learns how to make sausages. He then departs to Brno to visit Tibor Turba's famous mime school, where he is asked to mime a cockerel. Travelling in a DC3, used during the Berlin airlift, he visits the island of Rugen, built by Hitler for his KDF ('Strength through Joy') programme.

Eleven is the most perfect number, or so Miles thinks. Eleven will make the day perfect for our birthday boy: from the socks on his feet, to the part in his hair, to the candles on his cake and to the setting he has laid out for his father. As long as it's eleven everything will be perfect. But will dad remember to come for his birthday? Miles refuses to believe he might not come.
