From television sketches, includingThe Funniest Joke in the World, Hell’s Grannies, Dead ParrotandConfuse-a-Cat, to the filmsMonty Python and the Holy Grail, Life of BrianandThe Meaning of Life, to songs from the albums and live shows, this book is a ground-breaking critical analysis of the Monty Python phenomenon.
