MONTY PYTHON!! well done rob :)
I just got out, it was so surreal. they are doing a 2week show in the O2 in London, and my friend is in the chorus line so he got me a seat at the final dress rehearsal, it was the full set but in a smaller studio space, I was sat on the front row not 10feet from the stage. hilarious and very strange for me as I idolised them as I was growing up but assumed I would never be able to see them.
awesome, and the stage/set is all inspired by terry Gilliam's illustrations so beautiful too (in it's own special way)

Wow that's great to have seen them live Simon!
We Dutch love Monty Python! I was absolutely thrilled when I saw the sketch on court, where even a dead man had to testify! Dig Em up, being dead is not an excuse not to show up in court! Hahaha!
And all the rest of course.

Then Black Adder! Have them all on DVD, etc etc etc...
British humor rules!

Great that you finally saw them, although I fear the dead Python didn't show up :)

graham chapman (Brian) was very much honoured throughout. considering they're all pushing 80 it was very impressive, still can't quite believe what just happened as I'm now back in my living room in Essex. it's ing a cup of tea and wondering if I just had a very silly dream ;)

Wow. That's great. In Hungary there will be live transmission in many multiplex cinemas. So we will be able to see the show on the movie screen. Probably there will be screenings like that in other countries too.
Tenyo Rocks!!! :–)

yeah they're doing it in my home town too it's a great idea. who knows maybe we'll all be watching it at the same time next week :) it was very silly, very rude and very brilliant!
I'm seeing the actual show at the O2 arena on Friday. ok I'm just showing off now I'll shut up.
the best thing is the ticket is free. shut up Simon.
