Monty Python's Flying Circus: Series 1

In the beginning television was dull. Excruciatingly dull. Downtrodden viewers suffered from apathy and bitterness. God took pity on them, smote the wicked and created Monty Python's Flying Circus, the most wildly off-beat and outrageously funny comedy of all time. For four glorious seasons the Pythons performed miracles with their riotously inventive brand of humour and made TV and the world a brighter, funnier place. Classic skits from season one include - 'Man Turns Into Scotsman', 'Crunchy Frog', 'Silly Job Interview', 'Nudge Nudge', 'Lumberjack Song', 'Dead Parrot', 'The Funniest Joke in the World' and 'Famous Deaths'. Seasons 2, 3 and 4 are also available for your comic edification.
