And Now For Something Completely Different (1971): England was such a proper place - until the day the Python arrived. Monty Python, that is, a Flying Circus that slithered up the funnybone of an entire nation and gave it fits of laughter. Here's Monty Python's first feature film - a hilarious collection of their very best twits, skits and bits from their popular TV series.

The Holy Grail (1974): Yoiks! Here be the Python's tale of good King Arthur (Graham Chapman) and his knights as they quest for the Holy Grail. Watch as they face great odds and silly sods. See them wage battle against the fierce Killer Rabbit ("Run Away! Run Away!"), and, (oh, horrors!) see them confront the dreaded Knights Who Say "Ni!".

The Life Of Brian (1979): You could say this is one of the greatest comedies ever, but the Monty Python team said it first! Life of Brian is all about (and here's the big surprise) the life of Brian, who was born in a Bethlehem manger next door to Jesus. Three wise men believe he is the messiah, but it becomes apparent that he is only Brian.

Live At The Hollywood Bowl (1982): Live, lewd and unleashed for the first time, the Pythons take on the legendary Hollywood Bowl in a sell out show that serves up some of their best known songs and sketches in addition to brand new material that never appeared in the Flying Circus TV series.

The Meaning Of Life (1983): Those six pandemonium-mad Pythons are back with their craziest adventure ever! These naughty lads offer the usual tasteful sketches involving favorite bodily parts and functions, the wonders of war, the miracle of birth and a special preview of what's waiting for us in Heaven.

Followers: He is! He is the Messiah!
Brian: Now, f#$k off!
[silence]
Arthur: How shall we f#$k off, O Lord?

My Favourite conversation, hilarious :rofl: :rofl: :thumbsup:

Re: Monty Python Fans

4 sketches are my favourites;

1. the sex education scene in meaning of life ...
2. the birth scene with the most expensive machine in the hospital (I cracked that joke once at work and no one knew what i was on about)
3. the scene in life of brian when they burst into the room to rescue him from the women who are about to seduce him, and he doesnt want rescuing :D
4. the townswomens guild re-enactment of the battle of pearl harbour ... i honestly pee myself laughing at that one (terry jones just looks so right in tights, hairnet and handbag) :lol:

monty python is so funny, but my other half just doesnt get it ...

And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the lambs and toads and tree-sloths and fruit-bats and orangutans and breakfast cereals ... Now did the Lord say, "First thou pullest the Holy Pin. Then thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the counting and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Holy Hand Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

-- Monty Python, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

Arthur: (Pulls pin from Holy Hand Grenade) One! Two! Five!
Sir Galahad: Three sire.
Arthur: er... Three! (Throws grenade)

By the way, I like traffic lights, though my name's not Bamber.

Re: Monty Python Fans

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our four...no... amongst our weapons.... amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again. (exit and exeunt)
