| What's up lately with Monty Python? |
|
Edited on Thu Mar-02-06 01:47 AM by icymist
PBS has quite a bit of Monty Python in retrospect lately. Has somebody died? My friend tells me that John Cleese died!... I don't believe it. I think it's a joke. Nevertheless, the PBS stations are playing Monty Python sketches and retrospectives a lot right now! Anyone hear anything?

As far as I know all of the other boys are just fine and dandy.

Not long after I was at the Aspen Comedy Festival and went to a Python reunion. They brought a big brass urn that they said were the ashes of Chapman. The urn did fittingly Pythonesque gags throughout. Good stuff.

| 3. It's because the lads' 'Personal Best' DVDs |
|
have been released — each of them (well, not Graham) talking about their favourite bits.
