He wasn't the Messiah, just a very naughty boy.

I was lucky enough to catch their reunion at the O2 a few years ago, it was sad seeing Terry Jones having difficulty completing this sketch even with prompts on the desk and chocolate boxes. Dementia is not fun.
RIP

A great comedy talent (and an accomplished scholar on the medieval period). So sad he was struck down by such a cruel disease and yes, it was sadly evident in the O2 shows.

I first saw him as a kid on this terrific documentary about Rupert Bear.

I have a feeling the Pythons had an arrangement whereby the last one standing gets the treasure.

Once, before work in Leicester Square, I was getting my toasted bagel in a breakfast establishment, when I noticed Terry Gilliam was next to me. I summoned up the nerve to ask for an autograph, which he gave me. Then Terry Jones walked in to meet him, he thought I was with TG, and so shook my hand! I then proceeded to get TJ's autograph too, they were both very nice blokes.
