Monty Python's 50th anniversary details

A range of new and re-released products have been announced to mark the 50th anniversary of Monty Python's Flying Circus; plus a world record attempt; BFI and BBC Two seasons, an HD-restored box set, and more.

British Comedy Guide, 26th June 2019

The Monty Python's Flying Circus team's first big-screen guffaw is a rerun of some of their famous TV sketches. The anarchic battiness of these early sketches doesn't quite hold up; the later efforts, in which the Pythons harnessed humour into a mock-historical context, were more successful. But it's fun to see Cleese, Palin, Idle and all in the loopy pomp of their youth.
