Mar 9 2006Classic Monty Python Interview Found

Some old footage of members of Monty Python doing an interview for a PBS affiliate has turned up after having been saved by an engineer for the studio, though a portion has now been taped over. Nothing amazing is revealed, but it's neat to see the boys in their prime, speaking on censorship, the origin of their name, and some other topics. The video lasts only about fourteen minutes and has been missing for over thirty years. "Sounds like your father," my mother whispered, then began sobbing into a pillow. I guess she was joking; my father has only been missing for twenty years.

Also, keep an eye out for the woman in the background who realizes how stupid she looks in the hat a couple minutes in, then start hamming it up. I'm looking to punch her.

Monty Python are Gods!

Thank you for this video post. What a treasure of a clip. The mention of just finishing up a film called Monty Python and the Holy Grail was priceless. The clothes and hair made me feel weirdly and unexpectedly nostalgic in a funny time-warp sort of way. I really like these dorky buffoons. Who will take their (and freshman SNL players') place? Where are our comedy messiahs?
