Monty Python member Michael (5)

I believe the answer is:

palin

'monty python member michael' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for palin that I've seen before include "Michael - - (TV traveller)" , "Michael --, comedian" , "Michael --, Python" , "Michael - - (TV comedy, travel)" , "US politician" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal.
