About this title

Synopsis

This is the story of six men, five English and one from America, who, in the space of forty-five half-hour television shows, four full length feature films, a bunch of albums, the odd single; and some pretty impressive books, transformed everything we know about comedy today.

They were translated into German twice (Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus), banned on the big screen (Life of Brian) and played sold out shows at The Hollywood Bowl--yeah, just like The Rutles!

The impact that the members of Monty Python have had around the world is incredible. Now, Python associate Alan Parker has compiled the definitive guide to all "Monty Python" CDs and DVDs.

Includes previously unavailable material from the brand new Monty Python CD (released April 2006) and will be tied-in with the new CD
