Episode 31: Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
With the sad passing of Terry Jones this past week, I look back at a film that brought me immense joy as a sad teenage boy, MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL.

Making a mockery out of English history, its legends, its society and the structure of film itself, this captured me over 15 years ago and still refuses to let me go.
Needless to say, I made some excellent rules, and got shitfaced. So why not come join me on this road to sadness, joy and therapeutic catharsis?
