Monty Python Reunites!

[@GonzoIV]

I came back to this video after hearing about the passing of Terry Jones. Rest in peace man.

[@BigOgre73]

Rest in peace, surely?

[@ThiccNose]

David Ogilvie I’m sure he meant piece as in pieces. Hateful bugger

[@hermanvonroth1555]

In one or several pieces?

[@codjh9]

Agreed. Love his socks here too, trivial though that is.

[@toddlongo7066]

😢😢 RIP. Terry , Thank you for so many years of laughter

[@Qwazin]

The part about Graham being channeled through a medium with no sense of comedic timing and/or not showing up at all because he was always late for their meetings was just adorable.

[@IamConnorMacLeod]

"Yes, I've found Graham's ghost, but he won't appear before us just yet. Maybe in an hour or so."

[@vinnyreed723]

It’s respectfully insulting their dead friend

[@vaclav_fejt]

The always late Graham Chapman, now permanently late.

[@classic3511]

Chapman would have said, stop this discussion, it's getting silly.

[@young321bookie]

@@vinnyreed723 - It's using humour to hide behind the 'possibility' of Chapman suffering in The Demonic Realm right now. Eric Idle said in this video he doesn't want there to be an afterlife....I don't f*cking blame him to be honest.

"I think we should do the meaning of life part 2" "lets get Graham"

RIP Terry. He was a very naughty boy.

[@sibadityapal1493]

I always used to think that he was the messiah.

[@Yui714]

Knowing how to defend against a banana saved my life. Thank you Monty Python!

[@mikearchibald744]

Not learning how to defend myself against pointed sticks has caused me no end of hardship.

The next time some homocidal maniac came at me with a bunch of loganberries, I went crying to John Cleese.

[@Mythonaut]

That’s why I always carry a 2 ton weight

[@ZEUSDAZ]

You notice Terry Jones hardly get's a word in, I have a feeling his illness was starting to kick in around this time, memory loss and losing the ability to speak, very sad indeed.

[@forestsoceansmusic]

Good theory.

[@melindahall5062]

I thought the same.

[@brucelamberton8819]

Terry Jones was strangely quiet in this interview, and subsequently revealed he was suffering from dementia, which sadly took his life far too early. RIP to a very funny, multi-talented man.

[@kingstannisbaratheon7974]

Yeah it was sad to see, especially in this sort of scenario because he was a director on several of the films. Some might argue he was the brains of the operation, or at least the closest thing they had to it. And to see him take such little part in a conversation which i believe he was most eligible to engage in, makes it even sadder.

[@blueozzie4263]

I mean according him he didn't start to exhibited signs till mid 2014 a year after this video was shot and didn't get diagnosed till 2015.. You can go see other interviews around this time when he spoke a bunch with no issue, i think you are just reading into it to much now that he's gone.

[@davidbowman4259]

@@blueozzie4263 Just speculating, just theorizing. Bottom line is that he's gone and is missed.

[@DELPHIIII]

@@blueozzie4263 this seems to be one of the latest interviews of any kind I can find with him, and you can surely see he's not all there. Was he ever on camera again after 2015?

[@80swoodpanel]

I love Terry Jones' socks! Rest in peace, you beautiful man. One day they'll all be gone but Monty Python will live on forever, I'll make sure of that.

[@Astrobrant2]

Eric's gravestone really should read, "Look on the bright side of life."

[@kenlieck7756]

It does. Creeps the poor bugger out, too!

[@sailorpsycho]

I beg to differ... I really think it should read "A very naughty boy!"

[@goodnewsgeek42]

Jesus H. Christ But that was Graham

[@3John-Bishop]

Why 3am?

[@perrin6]

Or 'i'm fuckin' dead you know'.

[@BadHorse45]

Graham's looking down on them saying, " Oh I'll show you sense of timing! Just give me about a minute or two."

[@robsmithadventures1537]

RIP to Terry Jones.The Python crew were very active around this time as they were promoting their gigs at the 02. In the interviews, Terry was notably quieter in this time, and when he did speak he seemed a bit confused (understandably). He was great comedian, director, writer, and a historian. A man of many talents.

[@swanclipper]

monty python, a time when P.C didn't have control. a time when a joke didn't get you jail time, a moment of laughter and shame never a dull moment or word of pure hatred. Monty Python IS the meaning of life.

[@Krooksbane]

I saw John Cleese in 2017 at the state theatre in NJ. It was a public viewing of Holy grail, then a Q and A afterwards. Such an awesome experience. According to him, Americans love holy grail and the brits love life of Brian.

[@Applecompuser]

@Krooksbane I can't tell you how sorry I am that I did not see that show. I had a conflict the exact day. I think it was at NJPAC in Newark. In hindsight, I should have cancelled the other item.

[@aw-h3875]

Who loves The Meaning of Life then?

[@svw1978]

Deze mensen hebben het fundament gelegd voor zoveel artiesten en zijn een voorbeeld geweest voor creativiteit en dingen die nog nooit eerder zijn gedaan. Respect

[@Glyvenator]

KZbin keeps hitting me in the feels. Since Terry Jones kicked the bucket every Monty Python video ever made has shown up in my receommended...Thanks KZbin

[@Danox94]

In my country not many people used to speak english, so I guess the show wasn't very popular or known here. But I just discovered their sketches on youtube a few days ago and after watching a lot of them I saw the movies. I already love this guys.

[@hallerd]

[@wmr0225]

What country?

[@ivansushkevich467]

[@jktomas]

Funny thing about Meaning of Life is that even though it's not their best film I can't say what's wrong with it. Every bit, especially the ones that didn't make me laugh, were bizzare and weird in a way that made the movie unique and incredible. I can't imagine any bit of the film taken out, everything is important and lovable. By the way, it's nice to see all the Pythons in one room again (Idle is now a computer software? ok). The fact that they are still friends makes me so happy.

[@jcoptimus]

If you haven't seen it, John Cleese in "Fawlty Towers" is GENIUS!

[@SpottedSharks]

There are together only for a few minutes and the laughs start flowing.

[@AlexDeLarge1]

The Meaning of Life was their best film IMO. Some seriously experimental stuff going on in there. The Crimson Permanent Assurance kills me every time. Gilliam was a spectacular director. And the live organ transplant bit is just amazing.

[@weltonvillegal6258]

Alex Delarge - The restaurant scene! My sister always howled at the end when Death was skipping out and the people were following in their cars.

[@sarahkinsey5434]

Same here, I just love how random it is. The Find the Fish scene is my favorite because of how insane it is!

[@TrekkingOn]

30 Years Later and they can STILL make each other laugh. That's so impressive.

[@happydace4866]

I feel so indebted to these guys for the sheer joy and belly aching laughter they have given to my life . Thank you so, so much all of you ! 💖

[@B.attle-Brother]

These men are legendary!

[@MoeSlislack]

I love these guys so much!! You are missed Terry Jones. The meaning of life was the first monty pythons thing I ever saw back in the 80s and I was instantly a fan.

[@Ericwvb2]

Eric Idle has the best epitaph: "Say no more" ... Mel Blanc's autobiography is titled "That's Not All, Folks!" and his tombstone reads "That's All Folks!"

[@montypythonfanatic1]

I have been watching Monty Python ever since I was a kid and they still remain the main reason why I wanted to start dong comedy in the first place.

[@tsnophaljakarax9963]

Terry Gilliam has such a great accent; it's somewhere between American and British and it's just really fascinating to listen to. (sorry if that seems weird) Also to Mr Gilliam, keep on making those wonderfully weird movies :)

[@Marckymarc71]

Sounds like a totally U.S. accent to me.

[@CaptainKrimsonHeart]

Marckymarc71 Terry is the only American in the group.

[@PapagenoMF]

It's Minnesotan.

[@Ericwvb2]

I don't think Terry Gilliam has a trans/mid Atlantic accent, it's American. Kelsey Grammar and John Lithgow have trans/mid Atlantic accents (both wonderful!).

[@zedstar9464]

Thank God for these wonderful guys !

[@Edog12]

I wonder if I can call up a medium to see how Graham's doing

[@MCO18]

One person is missing from this video. :(

[@bantaar]

No, no. His ashes are lying behind the sofa. You just can't see'em.

[@MCO18]

I wish he'd walk in as the Colonel and tell them that this reunion has gotten too silly.

[@bantaar]

lmao! Yes, that would be priceless.

[@rohanmehta8148]

No no, he's in here *points to left tit*

[@plscometomychannel1007]

he died years ago

[@nssquared9174]

All six of them were/are utterly brilliant, ridiculously funny people. I remember I had just graduated from University and been accepted to graduate school and my parents bought two tickets for myself and a friend to see the original Broadway cast of "Spamalot". I was absolutely enthralled with David Hyde-Pierce, Hank Azaria and (god love him) Christian Borle and was so completely into the whole thing. D H-P was in the middle of "You Won't Succeed on Broadway" and in my 22 year-old brain I thought, "Eric Idle is a effing genius!" It's been 20 years and I still think it! Thanks, lads! 😂

[@hilaryepstein6013]

I love the way John laughs when Eric mentions Graham's sense of timing and will be late showing up. Also the way Terry J looks at John when he says "which chair is for me" - says it all.

[@markfryer9880]

Well given that John and Graham used to write together, he was versed in Grahams lateness and comedic timing.

[@hilaryepstein6013]

@@markfryer9880 I should have said he laughs in recognition of what Eric said about Graham - that's what I meant anyway!

Just can't wait for the reunion in july next year , hopefully will get 2 tickets on monday before they are all sold out , love you all you funny people :)

Ah, so wonderful to see them all together like this. The Meaning Of Life is one of my all time favourite films, it's one of two Monty Python films I have on DVD. The other film I have is Life Of Brian, another great film. I'll have to buy TMOL on blue ray.

[@mandst5466]

Great to see them getting old..... it’s much better than the only other alternative. Thanks for the timeless sound bites we all still use to get a laugh chaps. 🤓👍🏻

[@marcusbradley6207]

Rest In Peace Graham and Terry. You are both sorely missed.

[@Cazz8203]

Theyre not resting dipshit. Theyre dead

[@bantaar]

I'm always saying that Grail and Brian are Python's two major movies. That doesn't mean that I don't like "The Meaning of Life", tho. I do tend to see Meaning as a sort of swan song. It's like an episode of the Flying Circus blown up to the silver screen. Which isn't bad at all -- it's a very satisfying, in fact. While not as important as Grail and Brian IMHO, I see it as quite fitting that Python put a full stop to their ouevre by making a cinematic episode 46 of the Flying Circus (an interpretation I want to support by mentioning that Liberty Bells was played at the end).

[@romanramirez7847]

Rubjerg I actually think Meaning Of Life was the Python’s best film. It’s the funniest and sharpest film in my opinion. Likely because I love Flying Circus and seeing them go bonkers for one last hurrah always brings a smile to my face. R.I.P to Terry J and Graham.

Awesome Python guys!! I'll definitely get this. Meaning of Life is my favorite Python movie, though I know many rave about Holy Grail. I like Life because it feels like the TV show, with links even. And those great songs! Kewl Beanz. Fun to see you got John Cleese to participate, I always got the impression he wasn't fond of Python reunions.
