Overview

"My work is like Shakespeare - with better songs," claims Neil Innes, setting the tone. The so-called 'Seventh Python' discusses his contributions to the criminally neglected Rutland Weekend Television and his musical work with The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, which featured on the comedy show Do Not Adjust Your Set. Innes also reveals which Beatle hated his Fab Four parody band, The Rutles.
