Sir Michael Palin managed to suppress a joke when collecting the 'unbelievable' honour of a knighthood from the Duke of Cambridge for his post-Monty Python career.

“Haven’t seen a single thing this man has been in.”
I would interpret that as you have lived in a cave with wolves and without access to TV, radio or films.

Nope. I have 170 movies on my vudu; 142 movies on movies anywhere and hundreds more that I couldn’t upload to my digital internet cloud accounts.
