Parrot Sketch Not Included: Twenty Years of Monty Python

The night before the Pythons celebrated their 20th anniversary of their first television shows, Graham Chapman died after a long illness.

Steve Martin, a fan gives a deadpan commentary to this celebration of all things Python.

Its an excuse for us to see clips of the Python shows. Dead Parrot sketch excluded.

Monty Python which debuted on BBC1 launched a new type of absurd, surrealist comedy and its been heavily influential on both sides of the Atlantic. The final scene leaves us with all of the team trapped in a cupboard, Chapman included.
