This month J& B discuss one of the most prolific comedy influences of our young lifetimes, Monty Python’s FLying Circus and it’s many incarnations. We talk about our first encounters growing up, our favourite skits, the term “Pythonesque”, delve into the movies (especially Holy Grail) and some of more interesting experiences with Python fans we’ve […]
