55: Monty Python
Manage episode 394279346 series 3299460
And now for something completely different! Today we are joined by actor, writer and comedian, Anders Yates, to talk about the holy grail of British sketch comedy; MONTY PYTHON. We discover what makes something ‘Pythonesque’, which sketches are timeless (and which ones aren’t), what Terry Gilliam’s incredible animation allowed them to get away with, and how they influenced other sketch groups like Kids In The Hall. Plus, we dig into Carol Cleveland, the unofficial female python, why Anders should see Spamalot and Kyah learns about the Monty Python CD-ROM game.
