My Nipples Explode With Delight!! Today Marks The 40th Anniversary of MONTY PYTHON’S FLYING CIRCUS!!
I am – Hercules!!
One of the most entertaining, innovative, seminal and ridiculously influential TV shows in the history of history, “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” debuted on BBC1 Monday, Oct. 5, 1969, at 10:55 p.m.
I know this because I am somewhat coincidentally paused on the purely wonderful six-hour documentary “Monty Python: Almost The Truth,”
which hits IFC Oct. 18-23.
I’ll likely be jotting down more about the documentary later, but I wanted to commemorate the date.
Remember that the lower-case term “spam,” meaning something both unwanted and unavoidable, is only one of the show’s insane number of contributions to modern culture:
The show is also directly responsible for the single funniest motion picture ever forged:

First?
-
and the penguin sketch are far funnier than the parrot sketch.
-
on dvd last week. digitally remastered print looked amazing. python stuff has dated.
-
Its the general conception that the Monty Python were the first who introduced the subversive style of humour,but werent the Marx Brothers the first comedians who did humour of similar style?
-
...that I spent to get the Flying Circus DVD set was well worth it. Every classic episode. 40 years later and it still makes me laugh. Thanks for your contribution to comedy MP!!!
-
to mgm. mgm under mayer was the most destrcutive studio in hollywood at that time. groucho regretted signing the mgm contract. others did too.
-
..and I'm not being indecisive!
-
I can see where you're coming from a bit. I've sometimes surprised at that when I see old Marx Brothers stuff.
I think the real pre-cursor to Python, would have to be The Goons however (Spike Milligan, Pre-movie fame Peters Sellers etc).
Sellers is well known of course, but I'm not sure if the Goons are famous worldwide? They're still well known in the U.K like 60 yrs later or something, but it depends where you're from.
Anyway, the Goons were doing stuff that wasn't just similar, but EXACTLY the same as Python, years earlier. If you don't know them & wanna see where Python got it from, check them out. Milligan in particular was a massive influence on them. Fucking crazy genius! -
should read the complete python. by the man the team regard as the seventh python. Bob mcCabe. hell of a tome. its called python by the pythons. there were areas in the uk where monty python could be shown. outside london mostly. so the pythons made fake serious documentaries. that is how revolutionary they were.
-
full stop. the end. period.
-
i ll definitely check them
-
and he seems to be a very nice fellow irl too
-
in the group. The ripping yarns episode with french speaking yorkshire parents. is hilarious. But palin was the dramatist of the group. cleese on alin and his diaries. "he was the only member of the group who wouldnt stop talking. He would literally talk into the small hours of the morning and we were wondering when he was going to shut up.
-
check your pronunciation for a second. it's Paithen not Pie-thon
-
That's some great stuff! I haven't seen it for at least 20 years, but I think it was Palin & Jones together & it was hilarious!
I just might go on a Youtube Nostalgia trip, once I've had a few more beers. -
As I said, I haven't seen it for years, but I remember it being even better than Python (the show at least), at times.
-
the record for the best award acceptance speech. he dismantled hollywoods overlong acceptances speech. marvellous. dont know if its on youtube. it probably predates the net. it sensational.
-
"just shows how the mind wanders when you're nervous" speech? I remember that one:-)!
-
on dvd. wonder why?
-
cleese who had long since scarpered from the uk to america. wasnt there to pick up his award. He then began his thank you speech. It was a masterclass in comedy timing. it left the audience in stiches. at one point cleese thanked his goldfish. US stars do that they thank everyone. which makes that speech one to remember.
-
(well, half remember), started something like "In 1652.." (I just made that up 'cause I can't remember the date or the event)..but he went on to talk about some historical event for ages, then said "None of this has anything to do with tonight's proceedings, but it just goes to show how the mind can wander when you're nervous."
Sounds crap the way I say it, but then that's why I'm not a famous comedy legend;-). -
...is indeed available on DVD. In the UK at least.
-
Way back in history, about 5 B.C. (Before Cable) I remember being introduced to the Python sketches by their record albums. I had a lot of the sketches memorized before actually seeing them. The writing was that funny.
-
Got my beers ready & everything.
I wanna watch Ripping Yarns now:-). -
Cleese gave one of the best eulogies at Graham Chapman's funeral.

Touching, funny and profane. How can ya beat that for a sendoff?
-
As usual, you have to delete that space before the equals sign to make the link work.
-
While the Goons are definitely the primal influence on Python, if you want to check out the members of the group developing themselves, check out "Do Not Adjust Your Set" and "At Last The 1948 Show" (both on DVD) and the old radio series "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" not really officially available at the moment, but easily findable on line.
-
It was also the 20th anniversary of Chapman's death. I recall Meaning of Life, his being chased by a dozen topless women... "This man is about to die." That's how I'd like to go.
-
is "Airplane!" hands down, even the british EMPIRE-magazine would agree. The MP-movies are funny, but not as funny as their incredible superfunny TV-show.

-
There are a few interviews with Terry Jones in particular where he says that The Pythons were prepping the first series when the first series of Spike Milligan's "Q5" went to air.
Apparently it put a total spanner in the Python works because they felt Spike had beat them to it.
They're totally open about their debt to the Goons and Milligan in particular. -
Careful. Harry doesn't look kindly on Spammers.
(badoom tish!) -
And may I add, good thing I didn't tell them about the dirty knife! And also, "Dennis Moore! He gives to the poor and takes from the rich...STUPID BITCH"! Now, if you don't mind, I'll be off to learn how to defend myself from fresh fruit...
-
It's the life of brian. Now let's move on yeah?
-
Ok now I know you are fucking nuts, man!
-
The one I remember had the following line:
I would like to thank the planet Saturn and of course, all of it's rings. This was followed by Cleese dropping the award in to his wastepaper bin! Genius. -
...to come back to my place, bouncy bouncy?
-
Just my vote.
-
Just my vote.
-
lmmfao EVERY TIME I see that sketch.
-
It's a Christmas staple at my house, and goes nicely with the more traditional Christmas classics.
-
NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!I play that soundbite whenever my Spanish colleague comes to ask me a favor. She HATES that soundbite.
-
While Life of Brian is too restricted to it's plot, has some pacing problems, and relies too much on shock value. Holy Grail was limited by budget and censorship, and it shows, but they instead invest in really funny jokes to sustain the film. Comedy really is divided in PRE-PYTHON and POST-PYTHON, so today is kinda like christmas. Happy anniversary, Pythons!
-
I just spat coffee all over my computer after reading your post. The Spanish Inquisition stuff always made me laugh and suddenly remembering it made me chuckle.
-
I'll have to side with Holy Grail; I love Life of Brian but Holy Grail just kills me every time I watch it.
Sam Peckinpah's "Rogue Cheddar." -
Hands down the most disgusting yet laugh out loud amusing scene ever to make it to the cinema! Now I have to go, my wife's periods have started!!
-
Terry Gilliam had a thing in the documentary, where he said if they were to do a new series, that he would like them to make the first 4 episodes utter shite, unfunny pieces of shit. And then when the audience drops to like, two people, the 5th episode is just the best thing they've ever done. And the two viewers try to explain to everyone else how amazing it was.
And I was like "Yeah, dude, good idea, before the invention of the fucking VCR, never mind the internet."
They're a product of their times. Kids today won't find their old shows funny, and the once comedic giants are no longer in touch with what is funny. -
Roy Spim FTW
-
I'm turning Japanese I really think so.
-
in touch with what's funny!Judd Apatow and Seth McFarlane can kiss my fat dino-molesting ass!
-
said that she never found python that funny. and that she found it all dated. she was rewiewing spamalot on newsnight review.

Anybody ever convert "The Holy Grail" into a D&D module?
by royston lodge
Hehehehe...
-
that there were so many different kinds of cheese. So many. So so many. Cheese. Lots and lots of cheese. I...I...cheeessssse.
-
For all the nerds who think it's hilarious to recite Holy Grail dialogue in an awful, high-pitched, fake British accent. Fuck you all.
-
I think it was an issue of White Dwarf at least 18 years ago.. {Your Name Here} and the Holy Grail. At some point you have to fight the Vorpal Bunny.
-

1st sign of the apocalypse? I agree with Herc on one thing:
by gettingbannedisfun
Holy Grail is seriously funnier than Life Of Brian.
-
...is my personal favorite, but I love it all.
-
I even did my senior project on them. But the one thing I can't stand is when people quote their entire sketches. Here's the thing the sketch is funny when Python does it not you.
-
with another re-release of the show or 34th packaging of holy grail?
-
Fuck off, ya feckless gobsheen
-
...the same kind of people would love Monty Python now who loved it when it was on. I have two kids at home who love it, and perhaps the weirdest thing about them loving it was that I didn't try to introduce them to it. I had thought (absolutely wrongly) that they wouldn't get the cultural references, that the pacing would be too slow and that the humor in general might be too anachronistic. Then my daughter found Now For Something Completely Different on On Demand, watched it with her little brother, found it scandalously hilarious (the boy laughed hysterically at, oddly, the sketch where all the old and dead milkmen have been locked in the room) and asked for more. So, now they've watched pretty much all of them though I've had no real luck in getting them to pay much attention to Fawlty Towers. And my daughter thinks Gilliam is one of the greatest creative artists in the history of mankind. So V'Shael, would a Monty Python film be the "delightful R rated romp" that hits 200 million at the box office? No. They never were. They were just funny, and the people who found them funny laughed. That would still happen.
-
At Graham Chapman's funeral on You Tube, I came to realization, if anyone was going to do the eulogy at my funeral,I wouldn't mind it being, John Cleese.
-
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned quite possibly one of the greatest comedy sketches ever made. I mean, you watch that little play they do for the cat, and your mind is trying so hard to put the pieces together because it feels like it's almost cohesive, but not quite there. And then the kitty gets better at the end. :)
-
I love that sketch.
-
1.tibbles the cat.
2. fish slapping sketch
3. the penguin sketch.
4. the gumby sketchs.
5. spanish inquisition
-
Funny that penguin being there.
-
is and will remain the funniest thing they ever did. as will the fish slapping sketch. the fish slapping sketch. is comedy down to its purest form. no dialoug. just slapstick. no matter how many how many times I see I break into hysterical laughter. If I was to add a sixth. it would be the one where cleese is a crime boss and he is a conducting a crime class. really seriously. I think it is called how to rob a bank using a banana.
-
today. becuase there is no creative freedom at the bbc. birt destroyed that culutre at the bbc. u can youtube Sir Charles Wheeler legendary dust with birt about that. Birt wanted to reign in all foreign and wheeler excoriated him for that. sorry to go off topic. again. birt is the reason why there will be no more python style programs at the bbc. Cleese and company. well cleese in particular doesnt give a spit about uk comedy. as we all know cleese is personae non grata in the uk anyway.
-
Also, argument clinic, silly walk (cliche but still hilarious)and Greek philosophers playing soccer (Eureka!).
The funniest Python-related quote of all time: the Pythons are driving, trying to get into Aushchwitz for the German Python episode- they have been delayed. Graham Chapman leans out the car window and screams "Tell them we're Jewish" - as told by Cleese
One last question: was Fawlty Towers funnier than Python? -
funny yes. but it was made back in an un pc time. he wouldnt be allowed get a way with Manuel stuff today. not a chance in hell. look at what happeened to anton du beke. one off the cuff comment about a contestant. meant in jest and his career is deep trouble. du beke may never work in tv again.
-
"See how he uses a spanner to tighten that nut!" - classic. Python rocked my world when the beeb repeated it in the 80's, and it looked dated even then but was still fucking hilarious. EMPIRE magazine may claim AIRPLANE is the funniest (and it is great, no argument there) but LIFE OF BRIAN is a masterpiece of really clever humour, not just some lame disaster story with lots of daft gags chucked in. HOLY GRAIL is just ridiculously piss-yer-knickers funny. That killer rabbit gets me every time. "Your fazzer was ay hamster, and your muzzer smells of elderberries!" just flat out brilliant. Happy anniversary MP & FUCK ALL HATERS!
-
Only from Flying Circus: 10- Confuse-a-cat; 9- Sam Peckimpah's Salad Days; 8-Spanish Inquisition; 7-Self Defence Class with Fresh Fruit; 6- Spanish Inquisition; 5- The Ministry of Silly Walks; 4- Chesse Shop; 3- Argument Clinic; 2-The Undertaker Sketch (the banned one); 1- Dead Parrot (obviously).

-
dancer on strictly come dancing. two weeks he made comment about a celebrity dancer partner. she an actress called laila rouass who is one half pakistani and one half morroccoan took it in jest and moved on. searchlight the anti racist group did not and have asked the bbc to fire du beke. his comment was I have never had a partner who used fake tan.
-
I never liked the Bicycle Repairman sketch, but it has the honor of being the first Python sketch ever filmed, according to Michael Palin's book.
-
even though it was it hearlded thier temporary demise. wanda was a brilliant return and that should have been the end. Fierce creatures was horrible. they had a master of ealing at thier disposal for wanda. klein has never been better.
-
curtis. it made me laugh so hard until I was sick,
-
* crashing noises, screams * "I think she is dead." - "No I'm not!" - * crashing noises, screams *
-
the danish nucist sex tourist guide book sketch.
-
OF COURSE ITS A GOOD IDEA!!!
that always cracks me up from the holy grail -
That's another funny sketch. "As you can see, he has learned not to reveal himself. However, we happen to know he is behind that bush..."*KA-BOOM* "Arrggg!!!"

We shall not see their like again. Yes, product of their times, but still...the versatility, the invention and the nerve of those TV shows. "Are you suggesting we eat my mother?" "Even the police began to sit up and take notice..." "The tenants are carried in complete comfort past murals depicting Mediterranean scenes toward the rotating knives..." Shit, I'm getting all moist-eyed.

I still like John Cleese even though....
by christian_bale_trashed_my_lights
...he was in the only Bond movie I hate with a vengeance.I forgive you John, just like I forgave Pierce.
-
I must say as Yorkshire Man, I think their 4 Yorkshire Man sketch is superb
-
Google yorkshireman and 1948 Show, and you can see one of its earlier incarnations, with Chapman, Cleese, and Marty Feldman.
-
...is full of eels.
-
I had no idea who Peckinpah was because I was barely a teen - I think - but I think I laughed so hard I was actually ROTFL at the absurdity of it.
-
also like hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy?
they're both completely unfunny you know. like, totally. i tried to get in to python but its just boring really. its like family guy from the 1970s or something. hitchhikers i tried to like because i like sci-fi, but that was ruined by the 'comedy' parts, which is pretty much 90% of it... -

That's a recipe for automatic lifetime banning as far as I'm concerned. Be seeing you!

JAMF, this talkback farts in your general direction. -
Election night analyst: "It was exactly what I predicted, except the other guy won."
-
Clever people like me (who talk loudly in restaurants)see this is as a deliberate ambiguity, a plea for understanding, in mechanized world.
Is the truth, as LaFontaine observed, in the box? No, there isn't room, the ambiguity has put on weight.
Is those references arcane enough, to get me my Python merit badge? -
Dammit! I hate typos!
-
"There seems to be no end to McTeagle's poetic invention. 'My new cheque book hasn't arrived' was followed up by the brilliantly allegorical 'What's twenty quid to the bloody Midland Bank?'"
This business about Python not aging well is rubbish. It is as timeless as Buster Keaton or The Marx Bros. -
Monty Python is as entertaining now as it ever was.
And now... a Scotsman on a horse. -
He literally risked his life to make people laugh.
-
It's rare we get a Talkback that isn't overly negative. This one has been fun to read and reminded me why I need to rewatch Monty Python and their movies.Kudos to everyone who's posted here.
-
ricarleite2: I did not know that, thanks for the info. I just love the idea that in a world full of Supermen a guy in a boiler-suit & flat cap is regarded as the hero.
JAMF: How can you not like Python or Adams? I hope your only exposure to HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE wasn't the shitty Hollywood version? Not even Sam Rockwell could stop that suckage. If you only watched it for Sci-Fi reason then I'm not surprised you were disappointed. Do you hate FUTURAMA too? I'm sorry but I think you may just be a bit of a douche. Now it's time for 'Interesting Sport', and this week it's all-in cricket, live from the Municipal Baths, Croydon. -
we'll be taking a look at John Wayne's brand new film "Buckets of Blood Pouring Out of Peoples' Heads". But right now, we're going on location to Paignton, where 20th Century Vole are filming their latest epic "Scott of the Antarctic".

IMHO, Hitchhiker's best medium was always the orginal two series of the radio show, then the books, then the TV shows, then the film, in that order. Though Fry taking over for Peter Jones was inspired (why oh why didnt they get Hugh for Arthur is beyond me).
-
Best episode ever: Tomkinson's School Days. Especially the opening...."The follies of my youth.." Michael's puzzled expression as Terry is off camera reading the lines is just priceless. I believe its available on you tube for those who've never caught it...
-
Favorite Python moments/sketches: The Entire Mr. Neutron epside (especially the dog puppet.. "Ya wanna know where in Europe?"..oh and "This is not the lady?") The entire Cycling Tour episode, The entire Michael Ellis one. Upside down Minister ("Terribly sorry for saying Bloody Heack on all channels", Scott of the Antartic, Cheese Shop, Vocational Guidance Counsellooooorrrrr, Nudge Nudge, Four Yorkshiremen, Confuse a cat, Flying Lessons, Man with Three Buttocks, Arthur "Two Sheds" Jackson, Ewen McTeagle, Michael smuggling watches ("Must've been a vest...going off")..I'll think of more in a bit after dinner...

I fucking love me some Python.There's little doubt that Brian may be the superior 'Movie' but for me, Holy Grail is just a whole lot funnier.I love how, in between the quests and the swords and the magic and the adventure, we'll get a quick cut of one of the Knights being arrested by the poilce.Still has me pissing myself to this day.

I'm all out of BEANS! Hey, dad, why's Rhodesia called Rhodesia? I heard you snoggin' away at 3am. We was not snoggin'! I think it's disgusting - you're a member of parliament. Cat sticking out of the wall. Icelandic Honey Week - my life!That and the Bicycling Tour with Michael Palin as Mr. Pither. He keeps falling off his bike and crushes his banana and cheese sandwiches, then picks up Terry Jones who is some crackpot that develops ways to keep food safe. Then there's an accident and Jones thinks he's Trotsky, and then things begin to get really crazy.I love these six men and the work they've left us, and Carol Cleveland - she has a special place in my spank bank. Inexhaustible imaginations and profound prolificacy. I even dressed up as a Silly Party candidate one year for Halloween - the honorable Tarquin Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim-bus-stop-F'tang-F'tang-Ole-Biscuitbarrel.They also put questions out there for us to ponder, such as, "Why is it the world never remembered the name of Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crasscrenbon-fried-diggger-dingle-dangle-dongle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelterwasser-kurstlich-himbleeisen-bahnwagen-gutenabend-bitte-ein-nurnburger-bratwustle-gersputen-mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-shonendanker-kalbfleisch-mittler-aucher von Hautkopf of Ulm?"
-
Woody and Tinny words. . .Goooooorrnnn...by far one of the most obscure and absurd of all their sketches. In fact, and I know I'm in the minority on this one, but the whole Cleese-less last season was the best in my opinion. It's when they clearly gave up caring if anyone else got their jokes.
-
Does have quite a few gems..you practically don't even notice he's gone in the Mr Neutron and Michael Ellis episodes (two of all my time favs as I said earlier). Yeah, that woody sketch is hilarious..thats the same one with with the "Slower Banter" bit too I think. "Cabbage crates coming over the briney!" The one with the TV execs discussing programming titles is great too...Graham and his rants about chocolate cake, and the guard..."Mind me war wound!". Oh yeah, and that leads into the Cole Porter army courtroom..another great sketch.

BUT they're still funny as fuck. 'Holy Grail' and 'Life of Brian' being a few of my favorite comedies. I got a laser disc with one of their gigs. I forget what it's called but it's one of the best cd's I own. Happy 40th!
