Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Coconuts, witches and watery tarts
This week, it's the 1975 comedy from the Monty Python crew which sees King Arthur and his knights of the round table embark on a surreal, low budget search for the Holy Grail, encountering many, very silly obstacles along the way. Shrubberies and swallows ensue - it's MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL!
We talk all things Cast, Production and Plot, and there's a silly game, imaginatively called "It's a Sir" where Carl has to identify the knighted actor from a series of clues .
Plus we reveal our top 3 movies starring any of the Monty Python crew and induct more movies into the Movie The Needle Classics Collection. Let us know your submissions!

Movie The Needle
Hello, and welcome to Movie The Needle, a podcast where two complete amateurs haphazardly dissect a film that one of us likes, and one...well, not so much.
Join us (Simon and Carl) as we explain our opposing viewpoints and seeing whether we can mov(i)e the needle for one another.
