Hold your parrots – Idle says Python reunion “bollocks”
by Doc on Feb.01, 2012, under Movies, Television
Prepare to have your hopes dashed…that rumored reunion of the surviving Monty Python cast for a SF comedy might not be real – at least according to Eric Idle, the only one that supposedly hadn’t signed on yet.
On Idle’s blog, the comedian said: “And by the way these Python reunion rumors are just bollocks. Some greedy bastard producer in Hollywood floating an idea. It’s annoying but there seems little we can do about this sort of thing, except to release his name for public abuse, which I am reluctant to do as he is a soccer fan. So watch it or you will be outed as a twat dear…”
Is he joking? Angling for more money? Still mad at the reaction to Spamalot by some of his Python pals? Or was it just someone floating an idea and claiming people were signed when they weren’t? No idea…but I still want to see SOME sort of reunion…
