All good things must come to an end. And so it was with Monty Python's Flying Circus, the most outrageously off-the-wall and brilliantly silly Comedy of All Time.
After four seasons of inspired lunacy, the Pythons hung up their TV spurs and became superheroes, repeatedly saving the world from diabolical villains and menacing threats from outer space.
But fear not! Their pre-heroic exploits are available to you on this gloriously remastered and utterly complete DVD of the Complete Fourth Season featuring such gems as "Buying an Ant", "The Batsmen of the Kalahari" and "The Golden Age of Ballooning".

We know him best for his unforgettable roles on Monty Python - from
the Flying Circus to The Meaning of Life. Now, Eric Idle reflects
on the meaning of his own life in this entertaining memoir that
takes us on a remarkable journey from his childhood in an austere
boarding school through his successful career in comedy,
television, theatre and film. Coming of age as a writer and
comedian during the Sixties and Seventies, Eric stumbled into the
crossroads of the cultural revolution and found himself rubbing
shoulders with the likes of George Harrison, David Bowie and Robin
Williams, all of whom became dear lifelong friends. With anecdotes
sprinkled throughout involving other close friends and luminaries
such as Mike Nichols, Mick Jagger, Steve Martin, Paul Simon, Lorne
Michaels, and many more, as well as the Pythons themselves, Eric
captures a time of tremendous creative output with equal parts
hilarity and heart. In Always Look on the Bright Side of Life,
named for the song he wrote for Life of Brian and which has since
become the number one song played at funerals in the UK, he shares
the highlights of his life and career with the kind of offbeat
humour that has delighted his audiences for five decades. The year
2019 marks the fiftieth anniversary of The Pythons and Eric is
marking the occasion with this hilarious memoir chock full of
behind-the-scenes stories from a high-flying life featuring

IDLES return with their new album CRAWLER - an album of reflection and healing amid a worldwide pandemic that stretched the planet's collective mental and physical health to the breaking point.
Frontman Joe Talbot says, "We want people who've gone through trauma, heartbreak, and loss to feel like they're not alone, and also how it is possible to reclaim joy from those experiences." IDLES albums have always been anchored by these overarching themes, but the ability of the band to juxtapose beauty and rage with humor and drama has never felt more satisfying than on CRAWLER.
These stories are vividly brought to life through IDLES' most soul-stirring music to date, recorded with co-producers Kenny Beats (Vince Staples, Freddie Gibbs) and IDLES guitarist Mark Bowen.
