Re: RIP Terry Jones
He did some rather good documentaries. The one about the Crusades is well worth watching. I hope the BBC repeat it.

Re: RIP Terry Jones
Certainly one of the funnier elements of an extremely talented team. Good grief I feel old. Neil Peart from Rush dying recently as well, one of the finest drummers that ever lived (and he wasn't that old).

Re: RIP Terry Jones
I was awaiting your post on this Boss. I know you are a massive fan because you can quote more lines from the Pythons than I can.
If it makes you feel any better 'he isn't dead, he's just sleeping'. I know Jones wasn't directly in that sketch but it seems apt.

Re: RIP Terry Jones
Very saddened by this news. Real class act, very funny man, my favourite Python. He once said that he didn't consider himself to be a comedian....fooled me! With Palin he wrote the truly hilarious Ripping Yarns which is well worth a watch. Worth remembering also that he directed as well as performed in The Life Of Brian, perhaps the funniest film ever made (imo). A very talented man. RIP

Re: RIP Terry Jones
Oh no! Another significant part of my youth dies. Monty Python and the films, not forgetting Ripping Yarns (Across the Andes by Frog!)

Re: RIP Terry Jones
I don't know if anyone's ever read them, but he wrote two books of "Fairy Tales" which are absolutely great, especially for kids (with fantastic illustrations, but not by him). The story of "Eyes All Over" is brilliant, as is "The Ship of Bones". A great mind and will be sadly missed.

Re: RIP Terry Jones
Did he have something to do with Brazil (the film) or was that another Python. I remember Erik and Labyrinth.
Re: RIP Terry Jones
Terry Gilliam directed 'Brazil' Ian he was probably heavily involved as him and TG were best m8s ... but if memory serves TJ also directed or certainly was a producer of 'The Time Bandits'
