The Money Python team (minus Graham Chapman obviously) are re-uniting for a stage show.

A good idea methinks. Some of the tv stuff was hit and miss but I think the films are hysterically funny.

Hopefully this could lead to something more in the long term.

Saw this earlier and I must say it has made my day! Though I must say, in complete contrast to NapalmKev, I think the TV series was far superior to any of the films. To each their own!

You're both wrong - the albums were best of all. 

Can't decide if any good will come of this.  I saw the gang doing a recent roundtable thing and there was certainly plenty of chemistry left, but they did all seem very tired - which is their prerogative after such amazing careers.  But still.

Is this the right room for an argument?

Hello miss.

What?

I'm sorry, I have a cold.

Very much looking forward to this. And I thought the tv show was better than the films, too.

My opinion is not to be trusted: I think Last Action Hero is AWESOME. And What Women Want.

I'm going to say I prefer the films. The series had its moments but mostly reminds me of Magical Mystery Tour only without the cracking soundtrack.

None of the above. It was the Pythons individually - or in two's, and doing their own thing, which was the best.

This Jones Guardian thing is quite candid about it -

I won't be shelling out money to see old sketches from the very back of a massive arena though, I'll wait for the DVD.
