Monty Python

Monty Python (sometimes known as The Pythons) was a British surreal comedy group who created their influential Monty Python's Flying Circus, a British television comedy sketch show that first aired on the BBC on 5 October 1969. Forty-five episodes were made over four series. The Python phenomenon developed from the television series into something larger in scope and impact, spawning touring stage shows, films, numerous albums, several books and a stage musical as well as launching the members to individual stardom. The group's influence on comedy has been compared to The Beatles' influence on music.

Where is the Holy Grail?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

What is written below is the work of fiction and isn't and never will be backed up by fact. It is the product of a storybook 'The Da Vinci Code'. The author of the below answer obviously cannot separate reality from a movie he saw or a book he read.

According to Leonardo der si Piero da Vinci, the Holy Grail was not a Cup, but actually a Chalice. The Sign of Womanhood. Now, in the Last Supper painting by Leonardo, Jesus, and his Wife, are leaning away from each other, forming a shape in between them. A Chalice, Womanhood.

In the beginning, the Holy Grail was the Cup Jesus had drinken from in the Last Supper, according to Early Christain Mythology Legends. Jesus's Wife, was Mary Magdalene who was preganent with Jesus's Son. When the Romans had Crucified Jesus, Mary fled to another place where she lived the remainder of her life. Even though the Zealots continued to persue her, she was never caught. She died and was laid to rest in a Concrete tomb, located in France. Paris. The Holy Grail isn't a Magical Cup indicating gods powers, no. The Holy Grail is Mary Magdalene's Tomb, indicating, the CHURCH's power. "Holy", being Jesus's Blood, the Grail, a Type of Cup, or Chalice, was Womanhood, Mary Herself. Now, some might question "Just because Da Vinci Painted it, doesnt make it true". That is where the Priory of Sion comes into play. The Priory of Sion, protects the holy Grail, and its power. Da Vinci was, one of the Priory's Members. He belonged to the Sion. The Sion was a Secret Society founded by the Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1099, which preserves the Bloodlines of the Merovingian Dynasty alongside, protecting the Holy Grail. The Sion created the Knights Templar as their Financial Branch and Military Arm.
In May of 2014, Spanish historians claimed that they found the Holy Grail. They believe it is in a church in Northern Spain. If it's not the real thing, you may want to search Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland.

What was the name of the theme music for Monty Python?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you mean the theme music to the TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus, it is John Phillip Sousa's "The Liberty Bell".

The Python guys were able to use it free of charge for their show because the song is "in the public domain" meaning that, like "Battle Hymn of the Republic", it's intellectual property rights have expired, been fore fitted, or are inapplicable. Essentially, no charge.

Why was Monty Python named Monty Python?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The BBC wanted a wacky name, something "off the wall". They suggested "John Cleese's Flying Circus", but as Michael Palin recalls, "luckily John didn't really want to be that associated with the show". Palin further suggested the name "Gwen Dibbly's Flying Circus", Dibbly being a friend of his Mum. The group liked the idea that the old woman would suddenly be called to the living room by her son, saying to her: "look, Mum, there's a TV show called after you!". In the end Eric Idle suggested "Monty", thinking about the image of an old respected Englishman with a pipe, and Cleese pulled "Python" off the sleeve to go along with it - and the rest is history.

What do you know about Python programming?

User Avatar

Asked by Warren Thiel

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or glue language to connect existing components together. Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.

Often, programmers fall in love with Python because of the increased productivity it provides. Since there is no compilation step, the edit-test-debug cycle is incredibly fast. Debugging Python programs is easy: a bug or bad input will never cause a segmentation fault. Instead, when the interpreter discovers an error, it raises an exception. When the program doesn't catch the exception, the interpreter prints a stack trace. A source level debugger allows inspection of local and global variables, evaluation of arbitrary expressions, setting breakpoints, stepping through the code a line at a time, and so on. The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python's introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.

1965

It's set in the year 932ad, it says so in the opening credits. I have no idea why as Arthur (if he even existed) would have lived 4 or 5 centuries earlier. I would love to know why Python chose that date. They are usually very accurate when it comes to historical events.

Why is monty python's holy grail set in 932ad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Oh, why not? The king Arthur legends are fairly vague as to time. The actual king of England in 932 was Athelstan, but that doesn't matter.

Of course, certain scenes of Monty Python and the Holy Grail are set in the 1970s and not in the tenth century at all.

What are some example on how physics is used in Monty Python and the Holy Grail?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow (both African and European). This is in the beginning of the movie, when two knights at a castle argue over whether or not coconuts migrate and if 2 swallows could carry a coconut to Europe.

Another could be the determination of a witch, which (haha, see what i did there?) is found by thinking of things that float on water. The conclusion is that since a duck floats on water, if a person weighs the same as a duck, then they are a witch.
