Tales of derring-do and good old British spunk subverted by a pair of comedic geniuses.
Monty Python fans rejoice! This renowned BBC series, created and written by Python stalwarts Michael Palin and Terry Jones, provides more of the same surreal, bawdy, tasteless - and absolutely gut-splitting hilarity you know and love. The nine lavishly produced half-hour comedies - each starring Michael Palin - spoof the stirring adventure stories that were a staple of Edwardian schoolboy life. Plucky heroes triumph over adversity (or not) in such varies settings as Victorian London, Depression-era Yorkshire, WWI Germany, Peru and India during the Raj.
