Monty Python and the Holy Grail was released in 1975 and there was much rejoicing!

In 1984, its director Terry Jones spoke about the historical accuracy/inaccuracy of the comedic take on Arthurian legend.

Clip taken from Wogan, originally broadcast 20 October 1984.

Academia's loss was comedy's gain...

Although he did become a scholar in his post-Python career

Some of the medieval world they portrayed may have been exaggerated, but the Holy Hand Grenade was 100% real.

I never really β€˜got’ Monty Python
It was way too clever for me

Although very clever men
However in later years Eric Idle and his Spamalot show was very entertaining

The reason those skeletons had perfect teeth, and that they were bigger skeletons than expected is because of diet. True, they didn’t have access to sugar directly, but the main cause of dental problems is carbs in general. Those people only ate meat. Which explains their large size and good dental. Eating plants is the root cause of all modern disease.

Of course it's based on fact. You'll find it all in the Bible.
