Monty Python: Almost the Truth - The Lawyer's Cut

Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the first broadcast of 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' by BBC TV in 1969, 'Almost The Truth: The Lawyer's Cut' tells the story of Monty Python through brand new interviews with the Pythons: John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin and archive material from the late Graham Chapman. The six episodes combine interviews with a generous helping of clips from pre-Python material, the original 'Flying Circus' TV series, the films and their classic live performance at the Hollywood Bowl. Also includes interviews from modern day comedians and performers that cite the Python's as a major influence such as Dan Aykroyd, Steve Coogan, Eddie Izzard, Russell Brand, and Bruce Dickinson.
