Rating:  Summary: "And now for something completely different." Review: If you are not a fan of Monty Python than I can say to you "The Raymond Luxury Yacht interview" and you will not know how to say his name properly, but this book can tell you. If you are a fan of the show, and if you are not why are you reading this, this book is a wonderful companion to The Complete Monty Python's Flying Circus All The Words, Volume Two. These two books together have all the scripts from all four seasons of the Television show, Volume one the first and second then Volume Two the third and fourth seasons. This is a great book for those of you that did not catch all the words when you watched the show. I highly recommend this book for every Monty Python fan

Rating:  Summary: PLEASE buy it Review: If you are the kind of a person who wonders why there are so many spy and mystery books out there and so few comedy ones then maybe you should consider it the answer to be related to the fact that making a person laugh is a lot more difficult than evoking the sort of feelings that mystery writers are trying to bring out to their readers.Especially, when it comes to READING (as opposed to WATCHING) it takes great mastery on the writer's part to make the reader laugh. Well, this book will definately do it for you. If you are sitting in your living room and reading alone with the rest of your beloved ones in the next room then they will definately ask you what it is that you are reading as they will be surprised to hear you laughing so uproaringly. It has really been many YEARS since I have found myself reading and laughing so much. Please buy it. Maybe the best investment for the money!
Rating:  Summary: If I could walk that way I wouldn't need the ointment... Review: If you're too dim to pay attention when watching the telly, or you have small children that you DON'T chain upduring TV hour, this book is the perfect way to discover why everyone else loves these zany Brits and you're as clueless as a frog being boiled in milk.
Rating:  Summary: All the craziness in one book! Review: If you've recently lost your marbles, pick this book up. It's the complete scripts to the insane BBC Monty Python's Flying Circus, designed for you to read the sketches for the first time, or relive the moments. Madcap humor and British wit engulf the stories, with a good dash of delirium sprinkled about. Smash your skull against the wall, and buy this transcript of insanity.

Vol. 2 is cool to I recommend it. If you like the python's, you will like this book, well ofcourse you will its all there words, anyway to put it in other words, get this book!
Rating:  Summary: The BEST book about Monty Python Review: Like Ole Bentsen (see his review), I own virtually every Monty Python book. Unlike Ole, I didn't purchase most of them; over the years they were given to me as Christmas presents. Could this be a commentary on the friends and relatives I have? I love ALL my Python books. However, THE COMPLETE MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS: ALL THE WORDS Volumes I and II is my favorite.
These volumes are critically important to every Monty Python connoisseur. Most of us have all the words memorized, but occasionally I have a memory lapse when quoting from a few of the more obscure skits. Thus, I require assistance with my memory - particularly as I age. Unlike other Python books, these volumes are reference books that can be pulled out at get-togethers. In addition, Americans have difficulty understanding British accents. The volumes are a great assistance. THE COMPLETE MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS: ALL THE WORDS Volumes I and II is a perfect present for the Python connoisseur on your gift list. No one else would want it! Key point: Volume I is useless without Volume II.

Rating:  Summary: Methuen reissues all the classic Monty Python books in Oct Review: Methuen Publishing (London) is reissueing all the Monty Python books, TV scripts and screenplays, plus the new A Pocketful of Python series, to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the first broadcast Monty Mython's Fliying Circus.
Rating:  Summary: Utility Review: Originally known as 'Just the Words', this is exactly what it says on the tin - the scripts for every single show (minus the two German episodes), plus some amusingly-crude photographs, and an index. There isn't really a way of reviewing this book without straying from the brief and reviewing the show itself, so I'll stop here. For a short while. Actually, reading the scripts you start to spot bits you miss during the programme - and, best of all, you can practice reciting the amazingly-long [insert name here] of Ulm.
