“The babe called Brian. Another movie that I mercilessly destroyed, a VCR tape, rewatching and rewatching and rewatching. Also a movie in my formative years. My family back home in Wales went, 'Would you please, for the love of God, stop quoting Life of Brian?' There’s one glorious moment when the Roman centurions have to search a House... And also directed by Terry Jones, a Welshman. The only Welsh Python. So we take great pride in this. Classic.”
