Please email back.

The gang did put out a book called, simply enough, "Month Python and the Holy
Grail" It is supposed to contain the first draft of the movie, which I hear is
quite different than the finished product. For instance, the film was first to
be shot in downtown
London.
Goog luck trying to find it, I've been searchg for it for years!!

Try Whsmiths they're generally pretty good, and if they don't have
something they'll order it for you.

To he who has been searching far and wide,

I found it in the Castle Anthrax during the oral sex.

Also, in the Japanese version of the movie during the Anthrax scene a little
man pops up and says that the scene was almost edited out because there was
pubic hair, how daft!

He also said that they skipped dubbing the "Brave Sir Robin" song because they
found it tiresome and wanted to save time.

It's apparently not that hard to find in the States. My fiance and I picked up
a first pressing of it at a record convention a few months back. It was reall
y nice! We thought we had a rare find. He recently went to a new bookstore ne
ar us that sells everything from coffee to laserdiscs, and they had several cop
ies, tho none of these were first pressing...

One of my workmates had been working in Japan for several years. He once
told me that basically the only real "tabo" are pubic hair and the genital
area. Things that most other countries would consider pure porn is put
into comic books designed for children and young adults!
