Monty Python's Flying Circus—John Cleese's Personal Best (2006)

Overview

Monty Python’s Personal Best is a miniseries of six one-hour specials, each showcasing the contributions of a particular Monty Python member. The show begins with a plaintext “memorial” to the “late” John Cleese. It then cuts to a fairytale starring the troupe (“The Princess with the Wooden Teeth” from Monty Python’s Fliegender Zirkus), which then cuts to a poolside interview of a cranky, senile old man (Cleese) by Dayna Devon, a reporter. The supposedly 96-year-old Cleese usually answers her questions in the raunchiest manner possible, culminating in his “death” (by heart attack, apparently) at the end of the show.

Length 56 minutes
