October 2009 sees the celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the first broadcast of Monty Pythons Flying Circus by BBC TV in 1969. Almost The Truth: The Lawyers Cut tells the story of Monty Python through brand new interviews with the Pythons: John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones & Michael Palin and archive material from the late Graham Chapman. A host of others also contribute to putting the Python legacy in context including: Phil Jupitus, Bruce Dickinson, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Russell Brand, Steve Coogan, Stephen Merchant, Dan Aykroyd, Nick Mason, Tim Roth, Simon Pegg, Eddie Izzard and more. The six programmes, each an hour long, combine the interviews with a generous helping of clips from pre-Python material, the original Flying Circus TV series, the films: Monty Python & The Holy Grail, Monty Pythons Life Of Brian & Monty Pythons Meaning Of Life and their classic live performance at the Hollywood Bowl. This is the only official, authorised programme to commemorate Monty Pythons 40th birthday.

  • Not sure if they have the rights but it would be so great if Eagle Rock re-released the original series on DVD/Blu-ray! I really hate the old A&E DVDs. Awful picture/sound quality, cheesy menus & packaging, no extras. In fact, I've resisted the urge to buy the A&E Megaset in hopes of a more competent company eventually getting the rights. Unlike A&E, Eagle Rock actually puts effort into their releases and would do the series justice. 7 sketches from the show are included as extras, so who knows?

  • @EddieTheFishReturns I'm more amused than offended by your statement. And I'm an American.

  • @EddieTheFishReturns

    Thank you dear SIR (!) you made my day with this pythonresque statement :D!!!

  • @EddieTheFishReturns You're right sir. Besides there are many more profainities that could've been unleashed in the comments section than besides bastard.

  • 96 lawyers don't like that...but again,they're not telling the truth.

  • From which episode is that hilarious laugh of mr. John Cleese? :D please someone knows?

  • This is actually a really good program. You can catch it on NetFlix.

  • MICHAEL IS AWESOME! DON"T DISS MIKEY!

  • I saw this on IFC

  • Who censors "Bastard"? Especially considering the video has been uploaded onto YouTube with comments enabled. I mean, check this out: Shit, piss, bollocks, wank, fart, dick, haemorrhoids, asshoooooole.

    And the US audience is too self-important and too easily offended/amused.
