I'm trying this function but getting back; RuntimeError: non-convergent inverse meridional dist
I'm very much a noob but think i've adapted code to suit names in my data

def proj_transform(df):
    #bng = pyproj.Proj(init='epsg:27700')
    bng = pyproj.Proj("+init=EPSG:27700")
    #wgs84 = pyproj.Proj(init='epsg:4326')
    wgs84 = pyproj.Proj("+init=EPSG:4326")
    lats = pd.Series()
    lons = pd.Series()
    for idx, val in enumerate(df['Easting']):
      lon, lat = pyproj.transform(bng,wgs84,df['Easting'][idx], df['Northing'][idx])
      lats.set_value(idx, lat)
      lons.set_value(idx, lon)
    df['lat'] = lats
    df['lon'] = lons
    return df

Resolved through stack overflow, I had some NaN values in the data. More reading on that here for others reference.

I also had an issue with RuntimeError: non-convergent inverse meridional dist

Resolved by code below;

def proj_transform2(df): 
    bng = pyproj.Proj("+init=EPSG:27700") 
    wgs84 = pyproj.Proj("+init=EPSG:4326") 
    arr = map(lambda x: pyproj.transform(bng, wgs84, x[0], x[1]), 
    zip(df['eastings'], df['northings'])) 
    lons, lats = map(array, zip(*arr)) 
    df['lat'] = lats 
    df['lon'] = lons
    return df
