Monty Python

Monty Python or 'the Pythons' is the name given to a group of six comedians (five English and one American) who created the sketch-based television programme 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' and the three films 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail', 'Monty Python's Life of Brian' and 'Monty Python's The Meaning of Life'.

The six founders are:
 * John Cleese
 * Michael Palin
 * Terry Jones
 * Terry Gilliam (the lone American)
 * Eric Idle
 * Graham Chapman

Their brand of comedy was often random and chaotic, frequently broke the Fourth Wall, was crude and/or vulgar, and is considered some of the finest and most progressive humour ever produced. Other than Graham Chapman, who sadly died, the members have gone on to be successful film stars, musicians, television presenters, writers and all round celebrities.

Badficcers often try to write 'Pythonesque' humour and fail miserably in the attempt. Agents often quote Monty Python sketches, particularly the Dead Parrot Sketch, when undertaking an assassination.
