Actor and member of Monty Python, Michael Palin, has made a significant donation to the British Library, which documents his literary and creative career, covering the years 1965-1987.

It includes over 50 ‘Python Notebooks’ containing drafts, fledgling ideas and personal reflections relating to his Monty Python writing, as well as correspondence and his personal diaries kept during the period.

The collection also contains annotated scripts of Python projects.
