Monty Python - Rare Interview from 1973

The regional news program "Look North" from 23 May 1973 featured a news report from the Monty Python team as they were touring around the country with the Monty Python stage show. The report features Graham Chapman, Michael Palin and Terry Jones.

Interestingly the clip starts with what looks like an earlier interview on the set of the "Hermits" sketch from 1969 with John Cleese and featuring the other Pythons, including Graham Chapman in character as The Colonel.

I have very possibly developed an addicition to this interview!

Gray, Mike and Terry are LOVELY and so cute!

Pity Eric was not there.

BTW I've always admired Terry for his athletic capability and "stunt-man" qualities :-)

Graham's laugh really made my day, I love him

This interview is absolutely wonderful, Graham laughing, Terry falling, perfection!

And I love how Graham said at the end "You really are more mad than me!"

I so wish there were more old interviews like this of them in their younger days. they were in their prime.

John is being rather Beatle-ish. XD I stopped paying attention for a second, and when he started talking, I could have sworn it was George Harrison talking..and then turned into Paul!...

@Rumpio That's what I was thinking! He's definitely doing a Liverpudlian accent.
