Episode 4
Michael Palin goes to Cuba and samples the places and drinks that Hemingway loved. He also visits the American Wild West, including Yellowstone National Park and Ketchum, Idaho.
Michael Palin stays in Ernest Hemingway's favourite Cuban hotel and samples a few of his favourite hangouts, including Bodeguita del Medio and the Floridita in old Havana. He meets 101-year-old Gregorio Fuentes, considered an Old Man of the Sea, and who sits in the sun, smoking cigars.
He peers into Hemingway's Havana house that has now become a shrine where visitors aren't allowed to tread.
Back in West America, Michael attempts to be a cowboy and partakes in some male bonding while visiting Yellowstone Park. He also visits the house in Ketchum, Idaho, where Hemingway died in 1961 and where he was laid to rest.
