Answer 1

In order
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Lif of Brian
Jabberwocky
Time Bandits
Yellow Beard
And Now For Something Different

Answer 2

If you're willing to spend, how about the Megaset of Monty Python's Flying Circus. It's the Holy Grail (pardon the pun) for any true Monty Python fan.

Answer 3

Monty Python's Flying Circus is the name of the tv show that the group had. So, as long as she doesn't have any dvds/vhs of the show, then getting her a Flying Circus set/dvd will be a good thing to get her.

I'm personally fond of the Monty Python Live dvd set. It has their Live Hollywood Bowl performance, the compilation movie "Parrot Sketch Not Included", the "lost" German episode of Flying Circus, and a 30 year retrospective called "Live In Aspen." And it's only $15 on amazon.com.

Answer 4

action picture - The existence of Brian tutor - Monty Python`s Flying Circus music - tie between unsolicited mail music and The Lumberjack music Skit - ties between The Parrot caricature ,Nudge Nudge ,The Spanish Inquisition and The Argument

Answer 5

If she likes British comedy of the 70's in general try tracking down "Jabberwocky" it was directed by Terry Gilliam and stars Michael Palin and is a treasure trove of cameos by British comic actors.

Answer 6

If she likes John Cleese she might like "A Fish Called Wanda".
