Michael Palin in the Philippines: 1x3

Mindanao

Michael begins the final leg of his journey on the southern island of Mindanao, which is on the UK Foreign Office do not travel list due to the risk of Islamic terrorism. After tasting mangosteen and the notoriously putrid-smelling durian fruit, he arrives in Marawi, which was destroyed in a battle between jihadists and the military. He explores the bomb-damaged city and meets Queenie Pacalundo-Mamacotamo, who has returned to live in her damaged house, despite her entire street being destroyed.
