The Pythons: Somewhere in Tunisia, Circa A.D. 1979
1979 · ★ 7.4
Ten years ago exactly, more or less, give or take a day or two, six young men sat down, or maybe stood, or perhaps some of them just lounged, and wrote the first episode of a new series called Owl Stretching Time. They were called Graham Chapman , John Cleese, Terry Gilliam , Eric Idle,Terry Jones and Michael Palin and later both they and the series became known as Monty Python 's Flying Circus . Today they are the best known British comedy group in the world, famous from Cathay to Kathmandu, from Sydney to Sidcup (except in Japan where the programme is called The Gay Boys' Dragon Show ... say no more). To commemorate their tenth anniversary a BBC team tracked them down in the deserts of Tunisia where they were filming their Life of Brian and almost persuaded them to examine the genesis, the genius and the gender of Monty Python.

Coluche : C'est pour rire
1976 · ★ 6
Funny, unifier, subversive, Coluche was much more than a comedian. This show recorded at the Elysée Montmartre in 1976 brings together the greatest sketches of the comedian with a big heart: the cop, the poem, the cancer or the hitchhiker will make you laugh! A show that has remained in the annals thanks to the famous scene where Coluche tried to play "Le temps des cerises" on the violin... with boxing gloves!
